Can you name one local celeb that would make anyone more come?
They will come for Liverpool not some muppet ex rugby player or something like that.
Its Limerick FC it should be our players if any of our lads miss it for someone thats never even been to a game it will be a disgrace.
Katie Taylor was a guest for the Bray game, Nicky Byrne was also lined up but for obvious reasons could not make it, just for your Information the Liverpool; lineup was as follows.......
1.Bob Bolder, 2.Rob Jones 3. Phill Babb 4. Phil Neal. 5. Gary Gillespie 6. Mark Wright.7.Mark Walters 8. Jan molby 9. Ian Rush 10. Gary McAllister.11 David Speedie, 12.Micheal Thomas. 13 Marc Kenny 14. Tony Cousins, 2-2 was the result very entertaining game, crowd was approx, 2,900 and there was a Function after which was sold out at 1,000 euro a table of 10.

A lot of limerick fans agree with me.
Why involve people that would not have even known if the club had folded earlier in the year.
Just wanna know why involve em?
Sean Sabhat, Frank McCourt, Dicky Harris and Jim Kemmy.Quote:

Mark Lawrenson and Phil Neal have been added to the list of confirmed Liverpool Legends.
To raise awareness of the game around the city and make it more inclusive. It wouldn't happen if we were playing an actual contemporary Liverpool selection just as it didn't happen when we played Scunthorpe or the Leeds selection that time. It's very much a fundraiser as opposed to even a particularly competitive friendly. Hardly worth you getting worked up over it?Quote:

Which would you prefer; a not so serious Limerick XV that included say, the likes of Peter Clohessy, Keith Wood, Gary Kirby or Andy Lee and made a right few quid, or the regular squad who wouldn't attract as much. It's about money-pure and simple, and if ex rugby playing muppets, priests in skirts, or the McCarthy Dundon clan play on the night and make the club as much money as possible, then everyone will be suitably happy.
Oh yes because the megastar celebs we have in Limerick will really draw in the crowds.
Who will come to jackman to see any of the people mentioned play? They will have as much interest in them as in our squad.
Great the way we managed to annoy the players though and its the lads themselves that told me they are not happy about it.
the lads themselves will realise that this happens all the time with fundraising games like this one, look at all the games down the years,all had guest players and some nothing even from the city, im sure pat scully will have no prob with not playing any player that might get injured on the night,Quote:

So there it is...Leo Shine would make more people come.Quote:
