When o when will we ever do rovers a favour this season?
What a fcuking shambles..Drew will you ever go away and get a manager, you have'nt got a clue how to manage a football team. It was embarassing to be a Limerick fan tonight watching that crap.Galway must be laughing at us all the way home.
is anybody surprised by this result?lets hope we get the right man in soon so we can start building for next season
5-1 was not a fair reflection of the 90 minutes. even with 10 men lims had us worried 10 mins in to second half. at times i thought lims had the 11 men.
when russel came on for utd he changed it completely, he is a clever player who hasnt played for us for a long time. rovers next
I would'nt mind but Galway are no world beaters themselves.. I hate to say it but what i saw from Galway tonight i think it's Rovers league. Oh ya i think Drew has at least two more phamptom managers to interview. Come on Danny you know it make's sense ! Step down now.Quote:

Fair enough we're not world beaters, we didnt play at all in the first half and when we eventually got into the match we put 5 past ye in the space of 20 minutes. To turn around and say its rovers league after throuncing ye 5-1, is that not a serious underestimation of your team, given the fact that if ye held on for at least 20 more minutes ye would have won and Drew would have been a genius. The fact is ye played some excellent football with ten men, but when Galway broke ye down that was that. I think it is a fair reflection on a team to play absolute crap football for 70 minutes and then turn it around to win 5.1 Thus, it is not Rovers league who ever made that ill Judged remark, Dundalk pose a bigger threat than them as far as im concerned. By the way, why did the entire Limerick fans in the stand walk out after the second or third goal, should one not always stand by there team regardless?
Cause friday night is "late late" night!
Just as well... because there was no throwing of the auld stones!

well said Jacobbean, these so called Limerick supporters DID walk out 10 mins from the end, these are the SO CALLED hardcore supporters that write ****e about the team on this website, i dont mind constructive criticism and I have to agree Danny Drew has to get off the bench, the score of 5-1 did not justify the performance of the 10 men, I though they were unlucky, McCarthy should hang his head in shame, he knows the rule if you raise your hand to an other player, he let the team, club and supporters down........ I hope Galway win the league, keep it out of Dublin.......
Well that a load of ****e cos most clubs would be proud of the hardcore we posess. And just so you know, most if not all of the hardcoore left the shed some weeks ago, (as it was invaded by fake soccerball supporters at the Leeds game) so they left for the far end and when Heff scored they did celibrate and when they saw their team ship 5 in the last 20 mins they stayed and applauded the lads off the field, ask Austin O'Neill. So for your first post LFC at heart we'll let you go with that error.Quote:

A few of Us so called Hard Core left the shed for good when Racist Chanting started against Galway.It was Wesley Charles if my memory serves me. It happened twice in the first half and I personally reported it to a club steward. No action was taken so we left the shed and are now resident behind the other goal.
We DID stay till the end on Fri night and I , personally, believe the Lads performed well on the pitch. We were very unlucky to lose 2-1 not to mind 5-1. Well dones lads ye were a credit to the Shirt on Friday night. Sometimes the scoreline does not reflect the actual game.
We DID also applaud every single one of the lads off the pitch. All I ask for is effort and they gave that in spades.
As for Derek If someone tackled me the way he was tackled I would have kicked seven Shades of ***t out of the guy responsible.
In fairness lads, one monkey chanting person who as it turns out stopped when given a dirty look shouldnt split the little support we have. im all for different viewing angles, so how about swopping ends at half time?
That is a fair point. Tbh I left out of superstition......... Didn't work :eek: I've put down roots at the other end now though, save the Rovers game, I doubt I'll be back (All together now Awwwwwwwwwwww) :pQuote:

Agree with you totally John. And just for the record, the guy he was involved with on Friday night was responsible for a cheap sucker punch during a training session with Galway a few seasons ago when Derek was there and left him permanently scarred and with 8 stitches. Pieces of **** like that shouldn't be allowed onto a football pitch and Galway should know better than to play scumbags like that.Quote:

Well having stayed until the very, very end the other night for my sins I think we're in danger of letting the main issues slip away here. We were tied 1-1 until the 84th minute of a game that we'd played almost the duration of with 10 players (personally I think Carty was a silly boy to be so blatant but that's a whole other story) and collapsed in a manner that I've never seen before.
As much as this may upset some people I think it's worth noting that it's hard to imagine a NOC team capitulating so badly. What was the point in getting rid of our manager if we're not going to replace him? :confused:
We'll be lucky if there's not more exits by the next game (Ken Kiely also departed it seems)... There's something pretty rotten affecting any team that ships four goals in six minutes. Aside from Austin O'Neill none of them even looked particularly upset, heads just dropped and there was no sense of fight about the team at all by the end. I've never seen a Limerick side as dispirited.
Who was the Galway player he crunched?It happened down the far end so i didn't see the player just the tackle.
Stupid comment from Joe Soap-you're calling the Galway lad a scumbag for an incident you heard from Derek?
Well we all saw the horrendous "tackle" more a karate kick from McCarthy.He deserved what he got and probably a bit more too!
Perhaps a candidate for most ignorant post of the month?Quote:

Danny had a chance to increase his popularity by quickly bringing in a new manager, but he is now being ridiculed by pretty much everybody.
Any chance he is just waiting until the end of an already dead season to save some money?
I've already made that point myself. He was provoked though, it was a dirty tackle with no ball played from a player that has a mutual dislike with Carty. Doesn't excuse Carty in the least either.Quote:

Fair play to Galway for plugging away til the end but I have to say, for an Eircom League First Division side they have the art of diving down to a tee. Five or six times I saw one of their players 'fouled' with that tall lanky centre half with no hair the worst offender. Should have been booked a lot earlier for his diving than he was.
I have to say from when Heff's goal went in til the second half kicked off was probably the most fun I've had at a Limerick game in quite a while. The celebrations behind Gough's goal when Heff scored were some of the funniest, most over the top, happiest celebrations I've been a part of...good stuff from all of us concerned, however boos to Lim Til I Die for practically catapulting me over the wall and on to the pitch during the celebrations :p
lfc at heart, go away.... now!
the team was an absolute shambles after Galways first goal, even for the five/ten minutes proceeding. The ball was given away too easily, and after the second went in the team just gave up. I have never witnessed a team fold so badly during a game, but what do we blame it on? The team have talent, we know that, but they don't seem to have the commitment anymore, I mean a serious lack of team spirit is needed for a team to fold so badly, so we should be looking once again at the mess NOC has left us in, in regards to team spirit at least, and then to Danny, who I'm sure shot Tommy Barrett's dog in the dressing room afterwards as punishment for what happened at the end, such is his way with man management.
For anyone not at the game, no fault lies with Austin for any of the goals, I only say this because people see a scoreline like 5-1 and assume the keeper had a nightmare. Genuinely didn't have a chance with any of the 5, and in my eyes seemed to be the only player who actually gave a sh!t with each passing goal.
But the real issue coming from the game is SadLoserKid's shocking penalty miss against the Galway subs during half time. How a man with such lofty idea's about football could produce such a poor penalty, and follow it up with the greatest celebration ever at a Limerick game leaves me tipping my hat to the man, the myth, the 'infuture let's just put him in goals' legend that is SLK :)
And in conclusion, we need this season to end...now!

Finally I'd like to apologise to ConorH, osarusan, the Clery family and the people of Earth in general. Although Billy Clery has always given me the impression of being a big, rather limited, lumbering bully, I'm sure quite the opposite is true and the Galway incident was all down to Carthy attempting to break the mans fist with his face. I unreservedly apologise for jumping to such rash conclusions
why the ill feeling to ciaran foley....... didnt he play with limerick a few years back....Quote:

The Penalty by SLK was the highlight ok !!! The sliding celebrations were amazing ;) . Must agree with Jebus the celebrations after Heffs Goal were the best in a while. Just have not had a lot to cheer about this year I suppose.
Ya, sligo does that to people !!!:p :DQuote:

The Galway subs were sound, I'm just glad that Alan Murphy was gone in to receive instruction because if anybody in this league has earned the right to laugh in my face it's probably him.
I could mutter about the wet surface, my inferior footwear, the hostile crowd behind the goal, the hair in the eyes excuse but to be blunt... I made rather a bags of it. :)
lads its simple limerick football club is a joke and always will be for gods sake its run by people who just want to rob and make money out of it,its a shame coz limerick have the best football players in town and support to make it really big, grace,young and now drew all in it for money anyone agreeQuote:

No, no, no let's get back on topic............Quote:

Possibly the worst six minutes of my life. Ironically enough they're the same words that she said too. Now that I can feel her pain a little more personally I sorta wish I tried harder. :pQuote:
