What makes the Oji balls up even worse is he is going to the only team that looked like they could be anywhere near as bad as us.

Oji is staying in Ireland? Bad for Limerick but he's one of the better centre halves in the league and we aren't exactly blessed with them.
Ya expected to be signing for Galway. I can't believe a few of the top teams haven't jumped on it.Quote:

Playing in the Gaelic Grounds would be a disaster.
Is there anywhere that wouldn't be now?Quote:

It would but Thomond not a possibility apparently so Gaelic Grounds or Terryland both disasters.Quote:

Thomond Park is going to be empty till May at lest and possibly empty till next September. Cost is the only reason I can think of not going to Thomond Park and the Gaelic Grounds I wouldn't imagine is that cheap. Certainly not to a soccer team anyway.Quote:

I'd be happy to go back to Jackman if it would be allowed. The pitch is bobbly, the stand is tiny, and if it rains there's always the chance you'll land flat on your back getting to the hill opposite the entrance, but at least you'd be in Limerick. But I dunno, I'd say the FAI wouldn't bend on it.
I'd snap their hands off for Jackman park as a temp option.
If they did get the go ahead for the temp use of jackman park?why not put up a temp stand.it would be the best option if the fai sanction it.dont know if the club have even looked at the option of using jackman park.surely the fai wouldnt object to its use temporarily?
Its hard to know. The fact it only has one entrance/exit is the real issue.
Could the club even afford a temp stand right now?
I've heard rumors and inklings of plans to make a second entrance before, through one of those abandoned houses behind the car park ground, but it never went beyond that, too much of a quagmire with the council to even contemplate it I suppose, those are all regen scheme buildings.
If that's the big issue, it could be worked around. Limerick have no trouble-likely rivalries going, not really, and assurances about security or Garda being present before kick off and at FT could be made. But it all depends on the FAI I suppose. They're more than entitled to say no, and leave the club looking to Galway or wherever.
Apparently he and his family relocated here and his partner works for an airline. So it's possible that moving from the Shannon vicinity isn't convenient from him?Quote:

While it may sometimes be necessary to pay full time wages to attract the best players, unless you have full time access to training facilities you will never get the return that investment should yield because the team will never actually be working on their game/fitness in a normal full time setup.
Any word on price, faherty and prince signing?
Price and Faherthy signed.
Great news.big boost ahead of saturday.
Good few trialists at training today obviously Price and Faherty were there too. Two other CBs there and both looked quite good so if we could get one of those to partner Price it would be great.
Anyone we know?Quote:

Thought that might interest some of you.
On departures, Rory Gaffney hasn't played a minute for Cambridge yet, been injured the whole time.
I don't think Lee Lynch has featured for Hamilton either. Any news on Nzuzi?Quote:

Lynch has been injured since heading over also. Nzuzi is with no one by the looks of it.
Danny Galbraith with Gillingham now too. We've lost a hell of a good team in the last year or so...
Ryan
Kelly Oji Folan O'Connor
Djilali Lynch Hughes Galbraith
Gaffney Curran
And Ndo and Tracy and Prince and Nzuzi and Doherty etc etc etc...
http://www.cambridge-news.co.uk/Camb...ail/story.html
Gaffney might need foot surgery, which would mean he won't play this season. Bad to hear, had hoped he'd make an impression.
Jason Hughes has apparently resigned for the club.
Genuinely delighted to hear it. Still appalled it took so long.Quote:
