Would be a massive re-signing. Hopefully quickly followed by one or two more to finish off the squad and at least have us some way competitive.

Would be a massive re-signing. Hopefully quickly followed by one or two more to finish off the squad and at least have us some way competitive.
Would be great news if sammy oji does re-sign/badly needed at the back.
Massive boost for everyone today with the news of Oji's imminent resigning...Maybe we might not be in as bad a shape afterall.
Worst case scenario that we make no more signings i think the following team would be competitive v Bohemians on the opening night.
Connor O Donnell
Colm Murphy Sami Oji Tony Whitehead Robbie Williams
Sean Russell Shane Duggan Paul O Connor Ian Turner
Dean Clarke Darragh Rainsford
Hopefully the couple of loan signings Russel alluded to today will include a target man to play up top beside Clarke.
Shane Tracy would be a massive addition. Anyone know anything about his current situation.
The complete lack of strenght and depth is a major worry. Prince and Jason Hughes would bolster things a bit.
I think the two boys in the centre of midfield should give us a good platform too.
Heard last night Shane Tracey signed with fairview what a waste
Ya it's an awful pity. Injury has really ruined his career.Quote:

I hope its not what he goes with cos we dont have the players for it.Quote:

14 players in the senior squad 3 weeks from showtime according to theis interview in Limerick Post.

As Mike Ahern said on limerick 95fm this morning,the squad is very small and if they pick up injuries and suspensions they will struggle to field a team.its going to be a lot of pressure on the under 19's.
He is living in sligo as a fireman as far as I know. No way he would have come down here.Quote:

Good signing/an experienced defender.squad is still very light.need oji to sign and a couple more and it mightnt be too bad.
Rumour on our forum linking Vinny Faherty with ye
He played in a training match a few weeks ago alrightQuote:

Would take Daryl Kavanaugh. With Carrick knocked out of FAI by Moyross he might be interested in coming back. Had predicted that Doherty and Kavanaugh would leave Carrick if they got knocked out and Doherty has already signed for Waterford.
He would be a good signing if he was interested in coming back to limerick?a lot of if's though.
does'nt say too much for Doherty when he could'nt get a start with Carrick now does it.Quote:

Any news on who he's signing for?
Oji is a bad loss.
Looking at other teams in the PD you'd expect to be lower down the table, I have to expect Limerick are going to get relegated. The squad is just too weak and paper thin. The money situation won't improve, they'll be no mid-season squad makeover, and the effort to get a greater interest in the club from the city through the Market's Field has gone up in smoke. Question is whether the club can survive relegation really. It's crazy how bad things have gotten in the last few months. Part of me is wondering if promotion came too soon for POS' plan. Think on how much cash has been lost renting Thomond while Market's Field project scrapped along. Or maybe MF would never have gotten off the ground without promotion.
I dunno, its desperate situation altogether. I think LOI football in Limerick is just doomed to be at FD level.
Oji confirms on his twitter he is gone. More broken promises from the club cost us him.
Care to elaborate?Quote:

The amount of money wasted by POS is unbelievable bruff training centre been one ridiculous there wont be a Limerick soon enough. thomond park worse again pat is a great business man but is absolutely clueless on the running of a football club throwing money away.
A few ex players at it again in Twitter. Laughing at the club, saying karma is a bitch and we deserve everything we get. Still no info for fans on where the club stand.
Let me guess, was one of them banned for smokin' the wacky-backy?Quote:

Shows a complete lack of class in fairness taking to social media to have a bitch, hoping the club has a hard time etc. at least Oji showed what a class act he is wishing the club well and thanking everyone from the chairman to the kit man and the fans. All that Ryan ever did was whine!
Agree there, touch of class from Oji.
