Morrissey, hall, whitehead, coleman....bench filling up nicely
Don't forget Horrid Henry ... Sure to gather a few splinters in his arse, if not piles.Quote:

Now obviously I'm not one for exaggeration.
But when that one legged, mincing, prom queen of a centre half is laughing at an offer it's absolutely time for the board to resign en masse burn the Markets Field to the ground fold up the tent and start in the first division again in a couple of years.
We're into Danny Drew with Tommy Lynch as his assistant territory here.
McDonald better have players. And he better have them locked in a room where our chairman can't get at them.
Considering the “board” consists of 2 people, resigning would take all of two seconds and all it would do is leave us with no owner and no one running the club.Quote:

I'm well aware of how quickly the board could resign.
I'm saying close the club. 100%.
Shut her down.
All the money to get to a point where the clowns are laughing at YOU.
Take it down from the mast.
Roll it up in a carpet and throw it off a bridge.
Put a fork in it. It's done.
We're into John Healy coming on upfront up in Mel's Park territory here.
Another fella we were talking to has turned us down to sign for Sligo too.

The darkest day in the history of football in our fair city.
Folan would literally be the best defender we had by a country mile at this stage 2nd best outfielder by a distance 3rd best player overall as we stand.Quote:

It doesn't mean anything to em but it will if we are back in a relegation battle and crowds plummet.Quote:

There’s one thing players are doing this year and that’s playing clubs off each other on order to get the best possible deal. Sheppard done it with Cork, Bolger with Rovers. I would imagine Hery is doing the same now considering the interest in him.
That’s definitely happening. A lot of players have agents now so they are trying to get them the best deal possible and know how to play the system. I’m sure there are lads talking to Limerick that probably have zero interest in actual signing.Quote:

Absolutely sickened with the club letting Hery go, the one player I really wanted us to keep, now if we can just get rid of Ogbenie , maybe he has a clause in his contract....
Not being a good week .. Cue the club rolling out our North Korean sports correspondent AOB to "explain" how this is part of the revolutionary process. Again, sends out a poor signal to would be signings ..
Hery going is probably the worst individual loss the club could have from the existing squad.
McDonald better have a core of UK players together.
Losing a player you want to waterford is an absolute embarrassment for Pat O Sullivan. No more listening to his cretinous mooing about wanting Limerick to be a big club.
If they pull the Russell shuffle again this off season Pat needs to **** off to be honest. It's just a monumental waste of everyone's time and money at this stage.
Again: Unless McDonald is signing a squad in uk.
When we didn't get McNamee it was because he went to the Champions and we can't really compete with the top 3 or 4 teams. All the more reason to F U C K I N G ensure you hang on to the 1 or 2 top class players we have. I'm now really excited because if we can afford to get rid of Bastian then the 3 or 4 better midfielders we will be signing should have us ****ing the league. Champions League here we come :mad:
Where he is our captain where is our top scorer where are the rest of the lads we wanted to keep. Lost out on Dave Cawley to Sligo too.
Am I right in saying that so far it's Crowe, O'Flynn, Kenny and Hery out and Coleman, Morrissey in?
If we could even resign a few players it'd be a start.
Shane Duggan re-signed.
Ogbene on trial in the UK.
What level / club ?Quote:

agree with this, it's a disaster. Had really come good. However the lower reaches in England are full of Herys, let's hope our manager is coming home with a few.Quote:

Don't think it's time to panic yet though - theres only about 3 clubs that could actually field a team at the moment.
dont think pats, bray, bohs or Derry have done any significant new business yet?
my concern would be that the gap is widening - cork, Dundalk and rovers all moving to 52 week contracts, that's going to trump anything the rest of us can offer
Ah stop, Cawley is bang average. No addition to any serious squad
If the lower leagues are full of Hery's ... How come we end up with Cameron and Berki .. Buyer bewareQuote:

Fair play to him. Doesn't help us though with the immediate ticket price going up & squad overall smaller when it was small enough already combo.Quote:

Looking at the Premier licensing criteria and given our corporate and board structure, it's fantasy and farcical that we even get a sniff of a license. If they ever have a look under the bonnet of our application and define the roles and responsibilities to those named individuals in the submission, we'll be getting the roadTBH.Quote:
