If you's are looking to expand your matchday music portfolio, we could use more drum bangers in the PD:p

Congratulations to all limerick fans here, pleased for all the die - hards who kept the faith when times were grim, like your last season at Pikes ground. As they say, to truly appreciate the good times you have to remember the bad.
I know how you feel now, felt the same back in 2007, the euphoria lasted a few weeks. Enjoy and I'm sure you'll do well in the premier.
Heard ye singing that on Saturday night. I think ye need to learn the whole thing for next season, high notes and all.Quote:

For other fans sugar daddys with fans of unquestioning loyalty are nothing new on here (unfortunatley) and will always be treated with skepticism.
Anyway best of luck in the Premier.
No unquestioning loyalty here chief, anyone who knows me will tell you that!
But I tend to base my opinions on evidence.
Whereas what someone did above (I forget which one) was go:
"Here is a list of bad men"
"Pat O'Sullivan is a man"
"Therefore Pat O'Sullivan is a bad man."
A stadium and a schoolboy set up. These are tangible, there for the future things.
If a training complex is delivered on we're more or less set for forever.
Even when Pat pulls out and we go bust there's foundations there to fall back on.
foundations dont pay wagesQuote:

When Pat's gone (whenever that is) we'll cut our cloth accordingly like any other club.
Except we'll have a schoolboy set up and somewhere to play. (and hopefully somewhere to train)
... and if its mid-season those foundations you speak of could well be gone with the club and it will be hello Limerick 37.Quote:

The schoolboy set up and a big, massive, stadium would disappear if Pat O'Sullivan pulled out mid season??Quote:

Or to suggest that such a pull out would close the club mid season?? (it wouldn't because of the club structure fwiw)
"could well"
I'm starting to feel a bit dirty for engaging again. :ball:
Look this isn't the thread for debating idle speculation with people who are purely guessing.
It's a thread for Limerick getting into the Premier the division.
I'll tell you what this time next year we'll set up an "I told you so" thread where people can stick their tongue out at me or I can stick my tongue out at them, depending on whats gone on in the meantime.
Fair Enough?? :good:
Also, for the record, I'm really looking forward to my trips to The Showgrounds (we're guaranteed to get two away fixtures against all the big clubs)
Lee Jays relations do be telling me about the setup at the ground and I like what they've done with the town up there.
Stay in the Riverside Suites on the cheap, get locked in that really dark nightclub, you just don't get that kind of thing away to Wexford. :ball:
Fair enough LTID, sure ye can buy me a pint. Not trying to p*ss on your parade btw. Well done on winning the FD title.
Ah here!! Theres a Riverside Hotel in Enniscorthy and some really dark night clubs all over Wexford. You just didn't make the best of the trip!Quote:

Have Lims a trust/friends committee? Always good to have a watchdog
Most clubs are dependent on a frighteningly small core of people to keep the show on the road. Limerick may be a bit more extreme than many of the rest, but the vast majority of us are on the same tightrope.
It's paying wages instead if building foundations that has most LOI clubs in the ****Quote:

Congrats and Well done to Limerick FC
[Bandwagon] Don't forget I was there with ye in Fahy's Field back in March [/Bandwagon]
Are limerick in even greater peril if the one person has to pay on two fronts so!!!Quote:

Limerick have yet to kick a ball in a PD match, and we can already see how the s**t is gonna hit the fan on them? they've really made it up to the big league:D
You haven't seen 'this' before, because you can't even be sure what 'this' is...Quote:

Who owns them and who owns the club?Quote:

Pat is the majority stake holder and the LEDP own the Markets field.Quote:
