Heard today off a rathkeale player that last years shannonside manager is definite taking over rathkeale this year
This is better than sky sports news with all the rumours flying about. Heard J Cronin had the NCW job too but unconfirmed. Is there any changes this season with regards getting more games played at the start? eg on a Fri nite for the first few weeks? If not dont know why, it only makes sense.

Ya good idea alright, the only downside side is that the teams that have GAA players playing with them would be left wih no chance of winning the league as these players would probably be unavailable for at least one of the matches every weekend
I heard Paul Slater & Eddie Brouder were going to be taking over NCW this year, not sure tho. sure its that time of year when you hear everyone is going to all these different clubs but for a finish tis going to be pretty much the same as last year, with regards to players anyway!
I was told this morning that they have an outsider coming in, To be honest Id say the dont know themselves, and if they dont know, then nobody on this site knows either in my opinionQuote:

Ye won the league 2 years ago, ye nearly got relegated last year, ye have lost players to immigration, what part confuses you Barry, by the way, I heard young Nash was up playing with Broadford today vs janesboro, could you confirm if there is any truth in thisQuote:

Thats a bit harsh on the lad, as far as I know he has played only with 2 clubs ever and no he didnt play with Broadford yesterdayQuote:

Heard the same off a rathkeale player. Seems to be true. Anyone know the date for the first round of league games ?Quote:

Shannonside v Rathkeale will be one game of the opening season with donie gorman refereeQuote:

correct he did ,he also won an fai or even more than 1 fai junior cup,was with the view for bout 3 years think he emigrated after that ,was class player but lost interest after year or 2 in limerick and was never the same player afterQuote:

Ballingarry, Glin Rovers and Broadford United to be strong and the rest to battle it out to stay up. Rovers, Kildimo United and Askeaton to struggle. I expect Carrig Celtic, Killeaney, and Rockhill Rovers to fight it out for the 1st Division unless St. Itas can improve their squad a good deal.
It looks like NCW will be losing players and the likes of Tossy and Daniel Power will not be easily replaced! They may find it tough ths year. Eddie Brouder & Paul Slater are going managing Shannonside this season, may get a few players to sign from NCW also.
Would have to agree with what you said with regards to the teams that will struggle next year Notaclue, it will be between those 3 to go down.
Have Shannonside signed anybody new this year?
Askeaton will struggle, they could barely field a team at the end of last year and I hear they have no manager yet for this year.
Glin could go very well this year.
It's a good bit from Limerick!Quote:

One of my friends that plays with ncw told me that thomas Callaghan and David o Connor have signed and were training last Monday night with Ncw...he also said that ncw asked Paul slater and eddie brouder would they be the ncw managers for the up coming season and they said no cause they didn't have the time but when shannonside came in for them offering them money they were off to them like no tomorrow..They will be very strong I think next year I think
or you can head straight into Charleville and take Golf Course Road and follow it all the way to Broadford ... you drive thru village and cross bridge and then you will see sign for pitch to turn right. it will take about 55min to a hour to get to, the Adare way takes about 50-55 so not much in difference.Quote:

Shannonside to struggle unless they have some youths comming through, a lot of their players getting on now. Outside Tip for Ballingarry.Is Quinlan over them again? Kildimo & Askeaton/Shannonside to go down!!!!!!!!!Quote:

Shannonside to go down??? Are you serious??? Lose the the title last season on the last day and lose in the semi final of the league cup and you are tipping on them going down?? Daniel Power also signing for them from Newcastle West..I cant see them going down..I can only see them getting better not worse
Went the Charliville way, directions spot on and it did take an hour. Wembley won 3 2, great run out for both clubs..Game played in good spirits and the set up in Broadford is top class, the dressing rooms were massive, the match could have easily been played in there ha ha.. Best of luck for the season.Quote:

Played at least 3 or 4...will they have all their players when the football is back...
already? seems to be all good challenges there getting too! good point about the football alright, but sure doesnt the manager play aswell? he'll surely have allowances for that, they could be dark horses this year.
Ya ray lynch is the joint manager with christy purcell I heard..if they keep it together the could be dark horses and win a trophy for the first time in a few years....but football is the main sport in broadford and they need to concentrate on football as they haven't got off to a good start this year in that so that might cause problems with the soccer team
Seems that the season won't kick off until the 21st of August!!Quote:

Was at that friendly last night..not a bad game to watch..ncw started slow but were the better team at the final whistle..few new faces back with ncw..David o Connor,Thomas and Michael Quilligan,There was other people there but I don't know who they were..
