A must win!!
Simple as.
With Monaghan playing Shels away 3 points here for us and they are under pressure if Shels win.
I'm predicting a 2-1 win to Limerick with Gaffney and Behan the scorers.

HAs anyone a link to directions to mervues place link would be great.
When you arrive in to Galway at start counting roundabouts after the Oranmore turn off; go straight through the first two roundabouts (the 2nd one being where the Maldron hotel is), and take the first exit at the next (3rd roundabout) - continue along this road, you will eventually come to another roundabout, go staight across, then you are looking for the 2nd right hander off this road, its into a housing estate...
when you have turned onto this road, you want to take the 5th street between the houses along the left hand side, you will see the clubhouase from the top of the street...
Any fresh injuries for this evening?
Shi**y weather, away from home let's hope for the 3 points don't think anybodys worried about the performance at this stage of the season
It's fairly open up there also so it could be very windy also. As usual I'd take a scrappy 1-0. Points on the board and keeping the momentum going is all that counts.Quote:

As Gael says it's like the fairgreen....don't get me wrong it's a great set up but is open to the eliminates, similar in that sense to most of Jackman I suppose. Hopefully the rain can hold off later.Quote:

good win tonight but IMO i reckon its over we needed shels to beat mons tonight o well whats another year :(
fair play to mons when the pressure was on they got the results. you cant depend on teams doing favours thats why you need to be beating teams like salthill at home.

Its still hard to call how it will finish up.Quote:

Derek O'Brien was also stretchered off tonight.
Mons will be extremely tough to break down and I can see 'em getting a win in Cork. If they win, Cork are level with us as Jof said. People need to stop being pessimistic now. If we win our games, Cork need to win against Shels on the last day. Think about it.
Mons beat Cork, Cork draw with Shels - route one.
Cork beats Mons, Mons draw with a very organised, bogie team in Mervue.
Both of these are based on the idea that we win our four games.
hey lads, just looking at the league table on the official site and it looks wrong...on aertel, limerick site its different from the one on the airtricity league site, where it seems that mon's have been awarded an extra 4 points?
http://extratime.ie/leagues/2011/101/
The table there is right.
We are still in with a chance the aim is still the same win our last 3 games and see where we end up at the end...Hoping for Mons win on Tuesday now.
What is your weekly wage bill these days ? It must be double or treble what Monaghan's is. Just shows what a great manager Roddy is compared to the guy ye have.
6.5 Million paid out a week and thats not including anyone other then Denis Behan,Joe Gamble and the kitman.Quote:

Anyone know the different permutations/possibilities and results that need to go in our favour to go up? Far too lazy to work them out myself. Thanks in advance
The majority of the current team was there when he arrived but as I say he has still done a great job.Quote:

A load of them up on the Premier and First Division section.Quote:

If Mons beat them we need to win 3 and Cork need to draw one of their last 3.Quote:

If they were to lose one of their games (say against Shels on the last day) then two wins and a draw would suffice for us. In the unlikely event of Cork losing all four of their remaining games we'd only need one point from our remaining games to finish third.Quote:

If Waterford could even manage a draw with Shels on Friday it'd be a great result for us too depending on Cork-Mons on Tuesday as it could leave Shels needing a win on the last day, making things harder for Cork. So many permutations. :)Quote:

Agreed!Quote:

Remember we need to beat Monaghan which will hand Shels the title if we do. If we don't then it is over anyway.
I want a draw tomorrow night. Still need another draw from Cork OR another defeat for Monaghan. Maybe Mervue you never know.
Worst result is a Cork win as we won't catch them then and then have to hope for a Monaghan draw elsewhere.
