I don't think kingpin4 was referring to Judges talent as that was obvious to see. There is a big difference between talent to play at the top and mentality. Plenty of average players do well at higher levels becasue they have a good mentality towards the game and some top players never make it out of junior for not having the right mentality.

I don't know Judge so can't comment on his mentality but was just pointing out what I think Kingpin4 was trying to say.

I never said he was referring to judges talent, his mentality had nothing got to do with him going back to play junior soccer he asked limerick for x amount and he was turned down so he decided he wasnt going to further his career with Limerick.

So who told you about Bradley to us and Carthy and Tracy to Pike.

So far no sign of Bradley and Carthy has said there is no way he is signing for Pike think someone is telling ya lies.

The same guy that told me judge was going to pike, has mc carthy signed for Athlone.

Im not sure yet but i think information coming from the man himself would be fairly reliable.....He may change his mind but he told me he is going to Athlone.

He said he is leaving Limerick because a job he got would make it awkward to travel to Limerick for training so unless he wont have to train for Pike i cant see how that would work.

I thought you said Judge left because he couldn't get along with Scully and now its because he wanted more money?

From what I hear Limerick have turned down other players looking for more money too, and I don't mean from last years squad, which I'm glad to see to be honest. I know you are always going to have to play certain players more but I'm glad they aren't offering everyone money beyond there means just for the sake of it.

He left for those reasons and they are very good reasons to go he didnt get along with scully and he asked for x amount which was very reasonable and got turned down, jobspring it is easy to say you have certain players on more than others i agree but not a thousand in the differance hard to blame the player.

Heard a few from last year were asking for more money....Cant see why they would think they would get it while still in the same division....
If they were promoted fair enough but they should be happy that they will be guaranteed to get paid at least which cant be said for all clubs.

Also heard some new players getting in contact asking for crazy money delighted we are not throwing it around like that.

Seen as there is no player with Limerick on a thousand i cant see how there could be that much of a difference unless Judgie was paying us to play.

He didn't go afaik, he was released.

Why was he released??

Well he wasn't really getting a look in towards the end of the season.

He lives in Moate.

The club were probably targetting other players. (like Shane Guthrie I suppose)

There's three reasons.

I can't wait to hear the real reason though. :)

Exactly what I meant. Surely it must come across at sone point, how many Limerick players are actually from Limerick? There's loads of talent around the town, you just have to look at the players playing in the junior leagues. Unbelievably talented, but it has to come down to the mentality at the end of it. If you're not a good pro off the field, you're not going to last. And that's exactly what I'm getting at. You can't be overweight and then go eat takeaways and drink 12 pints then expect to be fit to play. And I would say that's where the main difference comes in between fellas like gamble and fellas like judge and yellow. (just using them as an example, nothing against either of them, dont know them personally like I already said, just thinking out loud) :-)

I know you were not having a go but you keep talking about judges mentality, the guy wont play for limerick unless its right for him does that mean hes mentality is wrong? he asked for a fair offer he got turned down and he decided to go! Gamble has come to limerick with alot of experience i watched him against mons and when limerick went two goals down on the 90th min he got a red card i am not sure what ban he got but what mentality did he show.
