Wayne Colbert played against Limerick u 19 tonight and Shane Clarke with Limerick.Are they both signing for these clubs.Carew looked impressive.
Was Clarke and Wayne playing with Carew?
Any new signings for clubs?Summerville seem to have got a few.Janesboro and Pike have picked up a few and Fairvew maybe.Any conformation on guys who have actually put pen to paper?Are referees back from their strike?I was at Regional v Limerick game and it was local ref so it prob is sorted.Any one confirm this and is their any games on the weekend?
Who did Summerville sign? Booster's normally good for all things in Portland! New manager too
Are the fixtures out for the opening games and when is league starting,should be a close league this year.
its off and running lads and one of the favourites have stumbled at the first,,,Boro lose at home 2 nil to Balla,and it could have been more as Balla missed a pen.boro very poor though they were short a few players,Balla wanted it more young team out too.
Well said fairkop,couldn't agree with you more,boro were very disorganised and lacklustre all over the field,they need to get there house in order if they want to push pike and Carew for the league this season

Great to see some activity on here again. Looked like the place was dead for a while.
No worries.

Don't forget to bookmark the site if you're interested in the stuff across the pond too.
You're gettin a bit of a hammering on Facebook Alan! Always good to read a local report when I can't get to games and I hope you listen to the comments and maybe get some more knowledge of local teams and players before your next report. It'd be easy enough to track down the coaches' phone numbers and email addresses before or after games so your reports can be even better. At least you're having a go though,hope you've got thick skin!
After three years of doing this, I would say that I have quite a strong knowledge of the teams and players that I write about.
I was aware that Geraldines were understrength last night. Of course I wondered who was in goal and why Eddie Lee was in midfield.
But knowing the answer to that wouldn't have changed my analysis as to why they failed to create anything after the fifth minute.
Nor would it have changed my suggestion regarding what I felt that they should have done.
The individual on Facebook doesn't like that. That's fine.
I'm not here to make excuses for anyone.
Horses for courses. You're in for a long season!
keep up the good work AOB,always enjoy the reports,your own take on the games is what we want to read so let the begrudgers to their own devices ..just do what you do.

Only the last year or two i was introduced to junior football in limerick. The interest in the junior game is unbelieveable. Between the secret junior footballer and Alan with his match reports, live 95fm and Facebook the coverage and debate on the game is entertaining and healthy. From your reports Alan you have covered most of the top teams this season in limerick. Would you dare predict how league might go? Would you give any of the clubs a chance in FAI?
Some interesting results last night night. Carew beating pike and Janesboro smashing Sville. Moyross going well too.
Some result from the Boro after a poor start, sound like they're hitting form. Geraldines would have been expected to win tho would they?
the results last night ....summervile 1 boro 10 and dines 8 knockainey 2 are a further template to what is at times an embarassing standard in our premier league.
was,n at game but believe summervile had full squad.watched the big two this morning at the boro club,even enough imo with boro slightly on top first half ,pike the better team in second.pike player lucky to stay on the pitch early after a reckless challenge,clarke pen for boro,meehan? header for pike to level,pike will rue 2 simple chances to win it.meehan sent off for two yellows.

Decent summary, except Neville is Pike's keeper, O'Donoghue was trying to lift it over Glasheen.

Moyross 2-1 Geraldines
Pike Rvs 4-1 Knockainey
Corbally Utd 6-0 Summerville Rgs
What is going on with Summerville? 24 goals conceded in 5 games by a defence containing Mark Keane is incredible. I know we've a few contributors on here that are involved with the club - would be interesting to hear their take on this disastrous start.
I dont want to comment much on the situation but its not good alright...They played well in the 1st game (oly game i seen) and were unlucky to get a result to be fair against fairview..Since then i dont know...But its not good at the moment but lets hope once these evening games are done leonard can stamp his seal on the team and pick up a few points before xmas.
I understand you not wanting to say too much.
Ye seemed to start well last season under Dillon. Yet I attended an away game against Geraldines in one of the cups halfway through the season and he wasn't present? Can you comment on what happened there?
