OK, cool, but any Limerick fan I've talked to says he's been one of their best players - if not their best player - since he signed. He looked terrific to me when they played Rovers. Not sure what all the irrelevant stuff about League One is about, nobody suggested it was anything above that level.

i wouldnt say that he was one of limericks better players this season as he didnt play many games.the few i saw him in was dissappointing when i remember how good he looked when he first played for ipswich.he has gone backwards in his form.he has great potential but dont know what has happened to him.its not irrelevant when somebody is trying to voice their opinion in a point of view.a lot of people on this forum try to belittle other peoples opinions when they dont agree with them.
colin healy wasnt good enough at ipswich and he has found his level with cork in the airtricity league where he has done well.
What on earth has Ipswich got to do with it? He hasn't played for them for years. I didn't say he was one of the better players this season, I said from the people I've talked to he was one of the better players SINCE HE SIGNED. I shouldn't need to point that out really. I mean, fine, you don't think he's been particularly good. My own limited experience and the experiences of others tells me you're wrong.Quote:

They're both signing for LTFC, front three with Peter Hynes. Worth their weight in gold.
And that we've avoided him.Quote:

The annual Pats/Rovers swingers party appears to be getting underway according to the Indo. Rovers confident of getting Fahey and Fagan but likely to miss out on Browne and Bolger as they're under contract. Pats signing Kilduff, McCabe and Jason McGuinness.
From a Dundalk perspective, it is great that a very good Pats team is breaking up. However, from a league point of view, it is a terrible shame. They were capable of playing some lovely football and were a joy to watch at times.Quote:

It'll be interesting to see whether Fenlon brings in a few from the UK.
Meh.... Fagan will be a big loss for the way we play. If he stays in the league, i reckon it will be with us.Quote:

We have 8 of our starting 11 signed up for next year. the core of the team is still there and i expect Forrester to be added, to make it 9 out 11.
And we'll be in a position to keep 90% of reserve players we want IMO - hopefully that will include McCormack and Chmabers anyway. Bucko will add again, and between himself and Dave Campbell, they have done well on that front, most of the time
That's a LOT of goldQuote:

They'd have no chance of beating Shelbohs' crowds though.
Would that mean we'd have to stop winning things :(Quote:

The truth hurts the majority of loi players would not be good enough for championship level in the uk.at the fai cup final in attendance was the manager of luton town and he was very dissapointed with the standard and said none of the players on show would make it onto his side.
You keep missing people's points though. No one barr you is arguing that the players are good enough for English teams. You said O'Connor was poor for Limerick. You are the only limerick fan ive heard think so and are using the fact he didn't make it with Ipswich as one reason he is poor. Fair enough if you think he was poor for us from watching him.Quote:

I'd be shocked if the Luton manager would base the quality of a player on one game. Any coach/manager that does that is foolish. That's like saying because some average player had a stormer in a cup final he is suddenly good enough for Championship.
You won't find a single LOI fan that has EVER claimed this.Quote:

Where would we be without Del Boy to come in and deliver some harsh doses of truth? We'd probably all be off planning our trips to see Dundalk beat Cork in the Champions League final.
We're due a win over them I feelQuote:

I love that this rumour is taking off at last though.
It was Roddy's comment at being "embarrassed" that irks many people. He brought Still over to look at a few players and was embarrassed at their performance.Quote:

And yet he'll probably still get another job in the league!
Liam Miller to Cork?
I find it very hard to believe that Roddy Collins has ever felt embarrassment in his life.
ION Shane O'Connor and Lee Lynch to Cork (although I'm not sure why Cork would sign a little midfield dude but there you go)
The Folan deal to Pats is apparently a Folan - Greene swap aswell. (poor Aaron Greene if true!)
he was released by his club in Australia, some city fans speculated that he might be interested in coming home on our forum and the Echo shamlessly went with that as a back page piece. Theres nothing substantial to it as of yetQuote:
