Limerick Junior Soccer 2004/05

Dunno if i will get many replies to this but i read in the Limerick Leader a team of the season from the season 2003/04 and i thought it would be a good topic cos everyone has their own ideas it was

1 Alan Johnson (Balla)
2Thomas Daly (Balla)
3Keith Fitzgerald (Balla)
4Mark Houlihan (Boro)
5 Brian Buckley (Fairview)
6Leonard Sheehan (Balla)
7Ray McMahon (Balla)
8Kevin McCarthy (Fairview)
9Shane O'Connor (Pike)
10Tommy Barrett (Fairview)
11Paul Harmon (Fairview)
12Barry Heffernan (Fairview)
13Garrett Ryan (Balla)
14 Dennis Whelan (Carew Pk)
15 Eoin Lynch (Fairview)
16Robert Earls (Balla)

Who compiled it ? Was it the paper themselves ?

yeah in fairness to the LL they give junior soccer great coverage they even ran a fantasy football which included almost every player who played in the premier league last season

Seems like a fair enough team to me...Its a well balanced squad...Is this the team the Leader picked going on Stats or just the team the thought Themselves ..I know that they did pick two

tHE Leader picked the team of the year . They also listed the FantasY football team of the year. i agree the coverage is A1.
wOULD YOU CHANGE THE TEAM IN ANY WAY

Id say the team listed above is the Fantasy team...The leader team had Robbie Kelliher and Kevin Mccarthy on it with Paul harman too i think ..DaveyWall had a good season as did Ray Mcmahon with Balla

Sorry did not see some of the lads in there ..busy at work ...Kelliher has got to be there though he is class

based on performances last season that team is fairly close to what it should be however obviously there are a few changes i would make but they wouldnt be based on last seasons performances, what i mean is if i was picking a limerick oscar traynor team it would be something like

1Gordon Stewart (Carew Pk)
2Pat Mitchell (Pike)
3Declan Considine (Pike)
4Mark Houlihan (Fairview)
5Brian Buckley (Fairview)
6Jason Purcell (Fairview)
7Alan O'Keeffe (Boro)
8Brian Lawlor (Fairview)
9Robbie Kelleher (Fairview)
10 Jason O Connor (Boro)
11 Paul Harmon (Fairview)
12Alan Johnson (Balla)
13Thomas Daly (Balla)
14Kevin McCarthy (Fairview)
15Tommy Barrett (Fairview)
16Robert Earls (Balla)

The team listed is the leader team. The fantasy football team had a few strange heads. Leonard Sheehan of Balla for example. The Fantasy football was just a fun selection

The leader team included Kelleher,Jason Purcell and Barry Lynch . Ray McMahon and Leonard Sheehan were not in cluded nor PAul Harmon

premier season kicks off tonight lads big game of the night is boro against fairview always a big game but even bigger now that 3 boro players from last year will line out 4 the view and that the former fairview supremo is now boro manager should be a cracker

Ya should be a good one ...Nice crowd there especially with the return of Finnan and the boro lads gone to the View...Only 2 available though Lawlor out due to a wedding...Fairview are missing a couple of more 2 John Fitz and Martin Neary on Hols but there is a big squad up there and they should cope

any predictions clownboy? you seem to be well up on the junior scene where do u get your information, will the 2 new fairview signings from the boro play?

...Not sure If the 2 lads will play.Id say they Derek will probably start them alright especially since its against there old clubs..Fairview to win just about id say it will be close though with both teams up for it ...2-1

i dunno id say fairview will be 2 goals better the boro wont be great at the back i think hula is an awful loss to them he held the defence together for most of last season imo, you never told me where you get your info

I agree that Looking at the squads the view look the better by 2 goals but first game of the season the 3 lads with the view and Finnan with the Boro so there are reasons for it being tight With Bubbles and Dalton Back they will be strong at the back...and JJ hartigans a good keeper ..as for where i get my info...I play Junior soccer and Know a lot of players and managers.

bubbles is with Balla
I reckon Fairview will win easily

bubbles signed with the boro youe1
i do fancy the view but as for dalton being back i dont think he is the answer i think he is a very poor defender
who do you play 4 clownboy?

Incorrect Bubbles signed with the Boro ...Skinner went to Balla

Ya he might play Dalton in the middle he might be better there ...shane madden is agood centre back too he will need to get match fit though he has not played in a while
