Starting on the 5th I think
Shannon town a
Shannon town b
park hibs a
park hibs b
bunratty
Olympic a
olympic b
Rineanna
and sixmilebridge are in this year too
I know there is one preliminary game on the thursday night which is Shannon A against Olympic B then it's four 1/4 finals and so on.
I'm not sure of the rest of the draw but when I know I'll post it up.
Right here's the draw.
Prelim. round. Shannon Town A vs. Olympic B
Quarter Final:
(1)Shannon Town A vs. Rineanna
(2)Shannon Town B vs. Olympic A
(3)Hibs A vs. Bridge A
(4)Bunratty vs. Hibs B
Semi Final 1 vs. 2
3 vs. 4
Shannon town A have to be favourites for this, heard ye've got a load down trainin. Has Ryan Kelly signed for ye?
Ya Ryan has signed and will be a fantastic aquisition for us.Quote:

Maybe because people will be hungover...or very tired and sore after "taking their ladies away for the weekend" ;)
Any idea when other fixtures are taking place?
Poor fellow - are you feeling the pain - - :)Quote:

Anyone any idea about Hibs? Will they have both an A and B team??

Shannon Town 3 Olympic B 0.
Rineanna have pulled out so Newmarket will take their place...
any reasons given for rineanna pulling out ... !!Quote:

Ryan has signed a form so isn't a blow in and is as much a shannon town player as the rest of us...Paul hasn't signed yet but we hope he does.
common sence is that not everybody will be happy but that is football. Tell me any player that is handed a subs jersey that is happy.....by the time players start leaving i am sure town will know the core 16/18 that they will think can keep them in the premier.....Quote:

Unfortunately the above highlighted statement is not true. He will need to get the best out of the core players of the squad and hopefully get off to a good start and that may see them stay up.
We have got a good sqaud with two players in each position now which is what any club would want. We are lucky too that in the final third we have players who are interchangable and can be moved around without distruption.
We're not fooling oursleves into thinking we are going to finish top half but we have to believe we can stay up and with teams in the premier struggling (Janesboro) then the better it is for us.
Going on yere match last night against a poor lifford side that were lucky to stay up last season Id be very worried. From what I saw ye will be very dependent on 1-2 players, Ye will struggle all season against limerick premier sides. Dont get me wrong ye do have some good young players but cant see them producing against solid players from other teams.Quote:

The bottom line is it's all pre-season...we were missing Evan Barry Fergal McCarthy Shane McCarthy Chippie Dunning to name just a few....it's too early to tell where teams stand yet....
its great in theory 2 players for each position keeps everybody on fighting for places .. but will 11 players be happy every week not starting games !! hope it all works out for you in preimer as it would be great for shannon town and soccer in the rest of shannonQuote:

All im saying is ye dont have quality to keep ye up maybe im wrong only time will tell but players that arent playing who got ye promoted will not be happy and come half way through season numbers will be low.Quote:
