Have to say I'm disappointed with Martin Russell tonight you could see with about 20 mins to go that one or two had completely dissapeared from the game they were running on empty and he refused to make changes. We really need to learn how to defend if we could keep other teams out a bit we would be walking over teams. Game should have been dead at 2-0. Not the end of the world though just puts extra pressure on the Drogheda game.
Yeah - we are still leaking goals like crazy and can't expect to score 4 every game.Quote:

So many of the goals we give away are ridiculously soft too its not like its a lot of goals we could do nothing about.Quote:

I think we're gona look back on tonight as the game where it finally slipped away. The table could've looked so much better tonight with a win, regardless of results elsewhere. 6 points just looks like as big a mountain as ever. ******.
Why not? I think that would be a very entertaining way to approach thing. And, to be fair, it's pretty much how Russell has approached his entire management career.Quote:

Shame to fall behind Sligo a bit more, many tough games coming. As long as we get to within 2 by last day though.
I'd say realistically we're looking to catch Galway/Drogs who both drew last night, we're 7 behind them (hopefully 4 after we play Drogue date if not I think we're screwed) so a few wins should see us on their tails at least. Not time to panic yet plenty of football to play yet. Still disappointed with last night's result simply because we should have beaten them handy with all the chances we created and the stupid goals we gave away, the lads we're understandable tired last night too.
Any news on Lee J injury?
Game against Drogheda is huge now win that and we are 4 behind them our 2 games after that are Pats at home and Bray away while they face Derry away and Dundalk away so if things were to go as well as they could be expected we could be a point behind them after those 3 games. Lastnights result makes Drogheda and absolutely must win game now though. Seeing the goals back on tele god they were very poor to concede all 3.
Hope you beat Drogs, if you do, the match v Pats will be great craic with neither team defending.
On last night, Longford are slipping further into the mire, Tony Cousins has no idea what he's doing, the lack of pace and then urgency to close down in the team is shocking, very lucky to get away with a draw. From a Limerick perspective, it was absolutely criminal not to win it, and could really come back to haunt them.
Going by last night it seems cousins is setting Longford up to do just enough from here out to stay up. If draws do the job then fine.
Drogheda Friday week is literally our last chance. Lose that and we are relegated. It will most likely either close the gap or make it too big to counter.
Hopefully the break gives us a chance to settle again. Lynch going off last night was a big loss so hopefully the break helps him recover and the injury is not too bad. He is a class act.
Apparently Lee J was taken off before it turned serious after feeling a pain and they thought it would be better to take him off then rather then continue make it worse and possibly miss weeks. Gutted when he went off cos he was just starting to take hold of the game at that stage. Desperately need him back for Dorgheda cos Duggan is suspended.Quote:

In a perfect world, Limerick could be 4 points off 8th place after everything.
Does anyone have any idea why Rainsford is starting ahead of Clarke?
