I'm sorry to see him go too, he hasn't featured at all under Kerley apart from a few minutes here and there at the start of the season. He was a favourite of mine, I like his attitude. Although in fairness he hadn't been scoring much even last season.Quote:

Why werent they getting games when we all know they are better than some players who who always feature for the first team ?
not an expert on the matter and not stirrin it up either but i was speaking to harrington and he just said he was sick of bein played on the left side of midfield and that he wasnt being given much of a chance in the middle. dont think there was much effort made to make them stay either. like i said im not stirrin it up just agree with what yer saying about bein 3 good young players and that its a pity they didnt make it this time. maybe playin a year or two with a good junior side will benefit them and then they mightmake the step upQuote:

sorry to see carthy go too but from what i know he has been injured for a long time and is still injured. Hes manager of Kilmallock so he wants to commit to them full time. He sought his release in the knowledge that he might only be fit for the last two games of the season. Best of luck carthy the best finisher the club has had in the last ten years
Probably..no, definitely, the best clubman Limerick soccer has had over the past decade. Kilmallocks gain. Its always been an ambition of his to start out his coaching career with his local club, and now he's getting his chance.
Thanks for all the goals kid!! Good luck.
would paul finucane not be up there as the best clubman?and is derek not from kilfinane?Quote:

Derek's actually from Ardpatrick, and Kilmallock are his local club.Quote:

Paul, I would say is the most naturally talented footballer the club has ever produced. Derek the most dedicated.
Couldn't agree more Kev. Granted Kerley doesn't deign to watch the A team so he's probably unaware of Grant's progress. :rolleyes: Bad sign indeed when the likes of Guerin and Carroll are rushing for the exits so soon after signing. Surprised Harrington hung on as long as he did after he was brought on seemingly for no other reason than to sub him within minutes against Dundalk a few weeks back.Quote:

Noel O'Connor was regularly chastised for mistreating players during his spells at the helm. It's probably a little soon to be throwing the same accusations at Kerley but at the same time... Harrrington, Grant, McCarthy, Guerin, Carroll... it's been a busy week!
lads if there not up to it them move them on
True, but id say myself its the players themseves who wanted to go due to the fact that most of those mentioned wont usually start.Quote:
