Poor start for hibs is that no wins from 7 now
terrible start beaten 4-1 away to Granville no win from seven now I presume your counting pre season friendlies / Wesley webb as part of this seven game run ?
just thought I'd add other teams since your are counting games Olympic 1 win from 5 / rieanna one win from 5 / Shannon town a one win from 3
Any news on Wesley webb last game between town a & town b cancelled last night and heard it fixed for Friday night now ? strange time to play it with league cups games starting for both teams on sunday
Hibs 4-3 Shels
Spot on old git your maths is excellent. Needed that result
Even if hibs do well people will still find the negative '2a is a poor division' or 'sure it doesn't matter they're going into the clare league next year anyway' very little positives said on this forum or is football in Shannon just that bad???? Best of luck to Aaron and his team for the season!

2A Is a poor division ! (Technicaly the 4th Division in limerick )
Have limerick league confirmed release to allow hibs move back to clare next season ??
If Aaron gets his first 11 out every week and a bit of luck i would expect them to be in with a shout of winning league Come end of season.
From what I have seen better teams in 2A in Limerick and Division 1 in Clare are very similar.
We finished 3rd from bottom in 2A last season and have beaten Shannon Olympic 7-2, drew with them 2-2 and beat Hermitage 5-2.
Have usually played high Clare teams and done well. The only one to give us a good beating was Bridge Utd.
Maybe in preseason yes.. but realistically clare 1st division is a higher standard than 2A in limerick .. I saw ye in a friendly v olympic this year ye won 7-4 I think but half that team was olympic b which happens in preseason.. and I don't think ye would survive in clare 1st division.. no offence mean't
Shannon Towns first offical outing in the Clare League on Sunday against a second team in
Newmarket....Predictions??
Are Newmarket B not one of the better teams in the first division?
Also Congrats to Shannon Town "A" on winning 5 WW in a row. Wonderful achievement.
Newmarket B are always decent and the fact that it's a bit of a derby will also add spice, but if ST are as good as we hear then they should win by at least 2.
Cannot understand why ST have left the best Junior League in Ireland to play in the second tier of an average league. I hope Hibs don't follow them.
YNWA: Wonderful achievement to win 5 WW in a row, dont think so that would be winning a Limerick Premier or a Munster Junior. Did ST win any of those WW titles whilst competing in the Limerick Premier?
Jofspring: You are wrong 2A Limerick is not similar to Clare 1st Division, it's better.
The bottom half of the Clare Premier would get relegated from Limerick 1A.
Not one team outside of Newmarket would get more then 6 points in a Limerick Permier Season.
Serious hammering for hibs 2nite 9-1 to cals. . Hopefully they can bounce back
Beam me up
since when was Division 1a the best junior league in Ireland ??
one Wesley webb titles won while Shannon town in preimer league
disagree 2A limerick is a better league than clare 1st
bottom half of clare premier might struggle in 1a but not sure they would be relegated
bridge utd / Avenue/ ennis town all with full squads would pick up more than 6 points in premier limerick
Old Git, I didn't say 1A was the best league I said the Limerick League, Limerick 1A gives you access to Limerick Premier (which is the best league) and that is what thy should be aspiring to and not easy pickings in Clare. That year they won the WW, they would have beden relegated same year with probably less than 10 points.
Hibs drew with Olympic in WW who are Clare Premier but get hammered in 2A, there you go..
You are judging a whole league on one game in a pre season tournament on a team with weakened squad? Delusional. Any of the top 5/6 teams in divison 1 would win 2a in limerick. MK dons beat Manchester United last year so MK Dons would definitely finish top 4 in the premiership. There you go, Jog on.
Hey Melon, Just back from my jog.
I wasn't judging Limerick 2A against Clare Div1 based on one match, I know from seeing some of these teams play. I just checked the line up for Clare Div1 and on reflection would have to say 9 out of the 12 would possibly stay up in Limerick 3A, no chance in 2A.
Jofspring has already told you that they have beaten plenty of Clare Premier opposition whilst coming third from bottom of 2A. The Limerick lower divisions are full of players that played Limerick Premier or could have but didn't want to because of the extra comitment involved.
Limerick District League has a massive pool of players that the Clare League cannot compete with.
Shannon hasn't had a team/club that has been able to compete in the Limerick Premier for years and because of this all the good players of the Town either go into Limerick, Clare for a handy trophy, swap between the Shannon clubs (whilst enjoying being the centre of attention for the summer) or just give it up.
Sometimes you can believe what you hear:D obviously
Lisnagry 1-2 Shannon hibs and hibs were very unlucky not to beat charleville b at the weekend as well, would have won If it wasn't for an outstanding performance by the charleville keeper... Maybe things not as bad as seems at hibs, starting to get a few that were missing back too
Your having a laugh hibs77 they are playing division 4 in limerick how low do they have to go. No sign of a recovery on the way so yes things are as bad as they seem
Probably straight into the Loi premier... Some sarcastic nonsense talked on this! Town didn't so why would hibs
