A must win. No excuses this year. Ideally I'd like the tie to be over come the trip to Wales, but would take a win to nil....Quote:

good luck longford, But dont under estimate your opponents, the last time an el club played a team from the then konica league of wales Cork City only went through on the away goal rule.
Cwmbran Town 3 Cork City 2
Cork City 2 Cwmbran 1
I'll go with that - wouldn't it be great if all 3 clubs could get through a round!
Hard to know what the standard is like over there but we should be good enough to go through especially as we should be fitter at this point. Reports from Wales have it that they're strong and well organised so it mightn't be that easy. 1-0 or 2-0 would be just fine for me
Best of luck on Thursday.
Not trying to wind ye up but ye really should beat them over the 2 legs. Saw a couple of ye're Setanta games as was impressed with a lot of ye're play.
Myler, Dillon, Kirby, Digger, O'Connor, Martin and Ferguson are good players and hopefully they'll show that over the 2 games.
They came 6th in their league which seems to be inferior to ours. The Welsh league's euro results in the last few years have been very poor.
Better off having the home leg first and ye'll go for a win and finish the tie off. If ye were away first leg ye might be happy with a 0-0 or a small defeat and then struggle at home.
We really should win this tie and their can't be any excuses.We should be much fitter and sharper than Carmarthen and a 2 - 0 win should be our minimum aim.
I think just scraping 1-0 over the two legs will be matthews aim :rolleyes: ;)Quote:

Ideally as I said 2-0 or 3-0 would be lovely but given that we stand to make close to €100,000 by going through forgive me if I put up with "winning ugly"!
wont be at the game but is it possible to get live web updates? good luck to the Town by the way, hope we get a decent cushion to take over to Wales!
Pauro, sorry no web updates from the game. Haven't got broadband in Flancare yet. It's due soon. We're waiting on eircom to install it.
They're putting in Wi-fi (wireless) broadband into the pressbox and a broadband line in the VIP room as part of their sponsorship. We were hoping to have it in Flancare in time for the UEFA cup game, but it doesn't look likely at this stage. When it is installed, we'll be trying to have each game 'live' on the web.
I'm sure Martinho will be able to give you some text updates. Try that Shannonside thing that I mentioned to you before. Check before to see if they are doing it live. They should be.
ring them and get put on hold???:eek:Quote:

I know 2 lads who done it from the Lebanon.They bought 1 of those cheap int. calling cards and listened to our 1st cup final.Cost them about £20 but it should be much cheaper from the UK or states as they will offer really competitive rates to ring Ireland.
Good luck tomorrow lads. Was someone joking when they mentioned tony Bird playing for Carmarthen? :eek:
It was on the Drogs mb that he'd signed for them, but no mention on their website. Does mention that the manager watched us in Bray on Friday and thought we were good - if they think that was a good performance we really must win this tie comprehensively....Quote:

Best of luck from all at Limerick FC.... :ball:
Fcuk me but this is the longest day ever.Can't wait for the match tonight and hopefully witness our first victory in Europe.I would like to thank all those who have wished us well and hopefully we won't let you down.
It was the Tony Bird!!!!!
Does this seem like a step down for him?
Yeah good luck to the Town tonight. Heres to a good victory and a good night out for all afterwards. I'm sure the welsh will be excellent guests.
No pressure lads, but EL teams are now 2 for 2 in european games this week :o
