Think official attendance was 420
We were the better side I thought and had more chances, dodgy handball?(didn't really see it) gave them a penalty and their goal....O'Leary was excellent....same old story with a bit of luck we would have beaten them
We were much the better team for most of the game, created a lot of chances and had 3 shouts for a peno (should have maybe got 1) Shels of course got theirs early and that was that really.
Thought Paddy's lack of complaint for the penalty was telling. From where I was standing, you coudn't tell what part of him made contact with the ball, but the shels fans were calling for it imediately, and the lino gave it without hesitation, and Paddy accepted it without a murmur.
After that, we had quite a lot of the ball and created some reasonable chances, especially with Bobby's freekick coming back off the post. In the second hald shels were better defensively, and apart from Jeffrey just failing to get enough on a cross, and a truly sensational save from Dean Delaney to deny Bobby (I think), we didn't come too close. In fact, one of their players missed a free header from about 8 yards out after a quick freekick.
All in all, we had 80+ minutes to get a goal and didn't, so i don't think we can say we were terribly unlucky.
Fair play to Shels, they brought maybe 75-100? And were in good voice throughout.
Thought we were a bit unlucky,a good crowd of 450 when you take into account that we were playing for pride.
On a side note can't make head nor tail of the few plonkers in the stand that spent most of the match shouting abuse at the visiting fans rather that shout for their team.
Munnnnster were at home too that night so not bad at all.Quote:

So what your saying is you didnt go to the Shels game so you could watch a load of unfit muckers who cant kick a ball straight get beat by an Aussie team hardly out of 2nd gear? :curse:Quote:

Lads in corner like me have spent the season travelling the country shouting on the team have you?
You could travel to outer Mongolia to support the team and that wouldn't give you the right to abuse other fans. It depends on what the abuse was of course but I had to edit the second post in this thread because of an example of what is unnecessary abuse. Banter is great, abuse is not and there should be no place for it.Quote:

God bless ye and your delicate ears if we ever get up and Rovers and Bohs come to town.
Its a soccer match every league in the world people get abused get used to it.
Well go set up your own forum to discuss 'your own feelings', or ring Jeremy Kyle. Either way, keep your 'feelings' off this forum unless they are related to the club.Quote:

You dont even know what was said at matches so really is nothing to do with you Joe is it?
Could be worse instead of abusing people we could be out robbing banks or something like that.
" Either way, keep your 'feelings' off this forum unless they are related to the club."

How is this more related to the club then what i said?
I'm only going to say this once to you in the hope that it sinks in: you said your feelings lead you to feel the need to be abusive at matches. That's fine, it's your right. But I'm not allowing posts from people on here who like to brag about being abusive at matches. End of! Bans will follow if it persists.
When did i brag i said its our feelings in the corner if we dont like someone we might call them something starting with W for example now if you want to tell me what is so shocking about that at a soccer match id love to know.
I only said it because it was said we were doing it in the name of Limerick FC i was clearing up that we never say its the feelings of Limerick FC or anyone involved with the club.
I was answering something about us you would do the same if something was said about you would you not? Nothing in my post broke any rules so why would i be banned for defending me and the lads in the corner?
SAD!!!!!!!Quote:

It's not pleasant but it happens.
We could do without the hassle of Shels games tbh I hope they win their playoff. :good:
:p
Two wrongs dont make a right,Limerick could have been three up and some of the clowns in the corner wouldn't have known.Quote:

look if you don't like the chants and singing then don't go to the game and it comes from both supporters but do me a favour and don't he a hypocrite and then go home and put on an English soccer game on the tv because their fans sing the very same songs and many a time Ive seen the camera close up to a players face and they are swearing.
life is all about choices if you dont like something then make a choice about it and move on
Passionate maybe,knowledgeable---i doubt it!Quote:

of an excellent game of football.Two of our juvenile delinquents had to be asked to leave the ground on the night.
Bluenwhitearmy was one and the other was a small overweight chap with a tight haircut.I felt I needed to explain to
some of the local stewards that these were not your typical Limerick supporter and apologise for their disgraceful behaviour
Well that is just plain lies as i wasn't asked to leave Wexford at all ever.Quote:

dutchie & jaorta are you stupid or something we travel the country from top to bottom from cork to derry and the supporters club members help out the club alot a little respect would be nice for being so passionate about limerick fc sure some games can make a fan lose the plot a little thats what real supporters do
..... look at clubs all over the world alot of them are real passionate fans like limerick fans we are 1 of the best away support in the division and were very passionate about limerick fc
