Well does any1 else no anything? I read a few posts back that Shane Treacy had signed for two years with Galway. Surely the point they signed him for two years is that if he proves himself this year he cant be taken by a bigger club.Quote:

Maybe they are, just wondering does anyone know about this?:confused:
Just to bring you up to speed on a o shea he has not played for rathkeale for over 2 seasons, went to Waterford Utd last sesaon under Kerleys reign and he now (this season) plays for Janesboro, he could make the transition to senior soccer, the only others from your list that would be capable of such a step up would be Daniel Power and Keith Harnett , Daniel was supposed to come to Lim fc last season under NOC:eek: but it never materialised for some reason, personally I think he wasted in the Desmond League, but thats just my opinion. Keith played under Mike Kerley in that ****ter of a season 3 years ago and did ok(remember him scoring a cracker away to cobh in 0-1 win that season), he stayed on when NOC & DD took over but never got a look in under them so he dropped back to junior and went to Pike Rvrs.The Desmond League seems to be a bit 1 sided now as NCW seem to be plucking all the best players from the league in their quest to win the MJ Cup, all the other clubs seem to be playing catch up with them.:) UP THE L37 BLUES.Quote:

I would like to add a few players to your super list. Kenny Hogan (Rathkeale) Kevin and Shane Hogan(Kildimo) Ray Cahill (newcastle) Adrian Garvey(Kildimo)Ray Lynch(Broadford)Quote:

o.k back to the real thing limerick 37 is bourke and guerin coming back. what about young tracey at wembley and grant.
I have been reading the last few posts on the Desmond League and find some of the comments very bizzare, first of all I think it's great that NCW are taking players from other clubs,the clubs that these players are coming from are struggling in the lower divisions, giving players like these the chance to play at a higher level should be encouraged, isn't that what happens all over the District League.
I am just stating facts here,Where you got Abbeyfeale playing the best football this year I would love to know yes they are looking a lot stronger than last year but are far from the best footballing side. On to Kildmo, they play very little football, are fit and physical and have the worst pitch in the league which makes it very hard for teams to get a result there, they got a new coach in this year who has got them very fit, and thats how they are doing so well
About the Desmond League, this year the league and cups are wide open aa a lot of teams have stepped up from last season. Not like last year when NCW ran away with a treble, I think they will find it a lot harder this season to repeat this. yes the GAA is the biggest problem with this league, Concentrating on two sports at the same time has it's downfalls. I have been very suprised that not a lot of Limerick teams have tried to bring a lot more Desmond League players to the city where the standard is excellant
Kenny Hogan- hasn't played this season think he is retiredQuote:

Don't know anything about Kevin or Shane Hogan or Adrian Garvey, can't be much good if they can't get on the oscar traynor panel
Sorry to keep going on about the Desmond League issues , must stick to the thread, Opening a forum on the Desmond League might help:D:rolleyes:
Come on the Blues:ball:
T Mcdomnaill from NCW is a class act. Has the football brain to make the step up. I said that 2/3 years ago, it's amazing he hasn't been asked. Ditto for Daniel Power. Get on to it Old Keeper....!
Shane Carroll, formerly of Glantine and Kingdom Boys is an under 18 that tabs should be kept on. Think he may be with a club in Limerick now though?
T McDomnaill is living in Dublin has'nt played any soccer this year, You can see D.Power and a few more players next weds when the Desmond League play the District leageu in ClonreskQuote:

Non-League Senior Football (MSL, LSL) -This is intermediate footballQuote:

The difference between intermediate and junior is what? To gain Intermediate status your facilities must be decent with a private ground. In the areas you mention there are some clubs with facilities that would meet and exceed the minimum standard, but there are some that would not.
For example Carew Park in Limerick have no ground therefore would not be eligible for entry into intermediate competition and Star Rovers have no clubhouse. Straight away there are two clubs from Limerick’s top division that do not meet the minimum standard. If you go below this league, it gets progressively worse.
In Dublin, with a population of over 1 million only 4 divisions are intermediate standard all in the Lenister Senior League (LSL). The top junior sides in Dublin, Killester, St Kevins, Portmarnock etc would compete comfortably in the ranks of intermediate football but chose not to. The FAI junior cup is harder to win that the intermediate cup (although I am aware the intermediate cup holds more prestige).
Only three counties have intermediate competition, Dublin, Cork and Donegal. I wonder why? Could it be that if other leagues ran intermediate competitions, it would be to the detriment of their Junior status, without gaining any thing by having a league with intermediate status.
Incidentally, if you put Avondale in the FAI Junior cup, there is no guarantee that they would win it. In fact if you look at last years FAI senior cup Killester (one of Dublins’ top Junior sides) beat both St. Mochtas and Wayside Celtic both LSL intermediate clubs. Wayside Celtic are the current LSL champions (although they made an early exit from the intermediate cup to Skerries Town therefore won’t be in next years senior cup)
Also in the 1st Round of the Senior cup Castlebar Celtic (Jnr) hammered Fairview CYM (intermediate LSL 1B) and Waterford Crystal (Jnr) hammered Garda (intermediate – LSL 1A) while Bangor Celtic (LSL Senior) knocked out Athenry (Jnr), thus proving there is no difference in the standard between the grades.
Dazzler, No nerve hit here ... if a player wants to better himself and thing are done in a fair and TRANSPARENT manner the best of luck to the player.If you read some of my previous post you would have seen that i have stated this before... The reason that i posted the reply to the only 1 is that I HATE THIS HABIT OF TRYING TO REDUCE THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE TO THE IDIOTS LEVEL.Maybe I am snob , but lets try and discuss thing in a proper and correc t manner.Quote:

I absolutely agree one hundred percent. And it also holds for making the step from junior to senior football in Limerick. :ball:Quote:

Yes players moving from lower leauges to premier is acceptble.now before we get back to the proper debate can i point out that altough kildimo have the worst field in the leauge.they have only played 4 home games in the leauge,which sets them up perfectley for the run in and away from home on all the good pitches in the leauge,they have only droppes 4 points.
o.k back to young players in the city,here are a few canditetes.
grant at wembley
deegan at fairview
hunt at wembley
joy at wembley i think
