I have to take my hat off (for once) to Fairview Rangers B lads. What a run to secure safety. Congratulations to all the players and management.
Sorry to see a fine club like Charleville slip to the third tier of Limerick football, but I'm sure they will be back strong next season.
Well done also to Shannon Hibs. They held their nerve and went up despite many peoples(myself included) reservations. I take pride in knowing we drew once and won twice (one on pens) against a Premier side. :D
Another great season comes to an end, roll on pre-season!!

Totally shocked at the Charleville result. Unreal escape from Fairview to avoid relegation, fair play to them, they looked dead and buried a month ago. Will be very hard for Charleville to get back up now, 1B is tough

Well done to everyone involved at Fairview B. Back in the middle of February, we were 6 adrift with 1/4 of the season left, and nobody gave us a prayer. And even on the last day, everyone had us written off, and nobody could blame them. But we kept trying to play football as we know how, and managed to scrape important wins together, no more than the final day win against Mungret, scoring with 5 mins left to stay up. Had an awful start to the season, and with a load of very young players, and terrible injury problems, we have come out on top. Huge credit goes to the management team who stuck to their guns all season, and never waivered despite all the problems, and criticism from certain areas. Hopefully build on this now next season, and with a lot of those young players having their first season at Junior Level under their belt, it should bode well as they will only improve.

why so shocked a team in the relegation battle for a couple of months and a team 2nd in table going for promotion ??? the scoreline was more of a shock not the result.

It will be interesting to see which players you'll be able to attract for next year.

It will indeed my friend. Quality players must be brought in to help fight off relegation, it'll be a tough ask but we are up for the challenge!:D Maybe you might consider coming back to your boyhood club!?:p

Congrats to Hibs on Promotion to the Premier.

Is there any sign of Darragh Purtill from Caherdavin, I seem to remember He had alot to say about Hibs missing out on promotion when Caherdavin just pipped them to it a few years back. If i'm correct he said it was a waste of a season for them. Ha, Karma has hit back. SWEET.

It's very complicated out there, certain players won't play for certain managers, certain players won't play for the A team, would rather play for the B team because it's an easier division. And then on top of that you have the hurlers who hardly ever make themselves available for the soccer team. I only played one season out there and we had a good season, fought for promotion til March and then fell away to finish 4th. The team that played this season is nearly totally different from last season. If they had everyone available they'd win 1B by a country mile, but that ain't gonna happen

derek byrne & darren ryan only joined hibs late in season so maybe the powers who picked team based it on performances over the whole season .. also have you seen some of the performances by darren ryan over the last few weeks .. thats probally why he never made team. :confused:

Are you joking me?? you say you go to hibs matches...then you obviously have no clue about the game at all as Gavin o donnell was one of hibs outstanding performers this year and was for the whole year, unlike the other lads who were only there for 3-4 months.

Second, your taking the mick, Ryno & Byrnsy played maybe 5 game each all year so your post is complete rubbish. Any game i watched Gav has been the player who stud out to me for Hibs, This is a fella that has played B-team football for a long time and NEVER looked out of place in this his first year with the A-team. Ask any of the Hibs lads and they'll tell you the same. Not to sure if the other two shud have made it but then again they did so fair play. Rob Wall had a good season too.

Shannon, Croom and Charleville gone. In comes Dromore, Moyross, Star and Summerville! I could get to those four with around the same amount of Petrol as one trip to Shannon my old chum! No comparison. :D

Very much a city league next season, with the exception of Shannon Town. Caherconlish is only ten minutes out the road. Playing in 1A is definitely a money-saver!

The pitches in Clare are better than what we have in Limerick. Look at this division, Caherconlish, the Greenhills, Shelbourne Park, Portland Park, Moyross. All these pitches are poor in fairness!
14/05/2012, 8:06 PM
dirtfree

The burren have a super pitch and facilities , the fairgreen is a decent pitch corofin don't play in the premier but I'll give you mountshannon but they won't be in premier after next week IMO
