Just a quick message to wish ye the best of luck and may the best team win :)
Thank you.
We're short a couple but are hopeful of making a game of it.
Liked your mascot last day - very energetic!!
ya leo is a great laugh!! One trick pony though!! :) Are many fans travelling down!! we are expecting a big crowd, it being a friday night, not like tuesday the last time we played :D
im sure a young fit Limerick fan like u, can drag them in the gates!! and the sun puts off the Kilkee goers... We cant win :D
Might have been my heart ruling my head but I stuck a tenner on us @ 11/2. Think I went for 1-1 in the Predictionss Thread though!
Are many coming down?
Doubt it give the weather and the distance. I'd say the usual 20-30 family and friends and maybe another 10-20 dedicated supporters. Max 50.Quote:

It can't take much more than 2 hours to get there can it?!?Quote:

Enjoyed trip down to Limerick.
Much better performance from Wexford who continued where they left off in Kildare. Could have gone either way. Our lads are playing much better and with more confidence. Replay Tues. Not to be missed!!
See you there:DQuote:

Crowds about 600-800.
Stand on a first come first served basis
Going on what I saw tonight there's one little change with the stand. Ye'll see tomorrow!
Atmosphere is good in the team, Pat was down tonight + Kevin Doyle trained for an hour or so. I'm gonna predict a 2-1 win.
The actual one :eek: :pQuote:

Yep, the one and only.
Doubt tomorrow will be as cold as your last trip down....there'll probably be a smaller crowd aswell so the traffic problem shouldn't be half as bad either!
Just to clarify - You haven't loaned him or anything?? :)Quote:

I fcukin wish! If it's one thing we're really lacking it's a striker. He said Shane Long was going to the game tomorrow, so who knows, maybe Mick has a trick or two up his sleeve. :cool:Quote:

Or Mick had Wallace Construction out in force for the last few weeks and the've built the fastest new stand in history. :ball:
so were gonna get soaked in da pising rain?
Just off the phone to my Da and the answer is yes it's rotten weather in the Sunny South East at the moment :).Quote:

Either way you were going to get wet anyway it never had a roof. Unless they've got a different stand in because the other one wasn't ready.
Good guess! Bad result. Don't think we deserved to lose.Quote:

I got a lovely grainy camera phone picture of him sent to me. My Da also managed to get a slagging from Pat Dolan for being too star struck to have his picture taken with the Doyler.:o
Heard we played one of our best games of the season. Our strikers need to be a bit more greedy in front of goal from all reports that i've heard. Apparently Johnny Flynn was in a good scoring position at one point and opted to pass. Now speaking as an experienced forward (not at this level, granted), all strikers have to be greedy ba**ards in front of goal. This all points to our inexperience i suppose, and it's all part of the learning curve that we're on. Good to see Marty back, but from what i heard he wasn't given a long enough run to let him really shine.
We need to get back on our feet after this. We're starting to play teams off the field, our strikers just seem to need to find that greedy, killer instinct. It's all coming together, slowly but surely and once we start scoring i feel our lads will hit their stride
Your entitled to say it but from all reports we're looking a hell of a lot better. To say we played you off the field is no doubt an exaggeration but it is the first time every match report has described us as 'dominant' in any part of a game.Quote:

We might well still finish last, but, huge strides are being made and this team will only get stronger. :ball:
"i think ye will finish bottom of the league"
I think we will too, in fact I don't think there's much doubt about it. Passes overhit, underhit, shambolic defending, a complete lack of confidence in front of goal, balls lumped out of defence to no-one in particular, midfielders not getting forward fast enough.... need I go on? Mick's in the Wexford People this week talking about how the team is learning more each game, but I just can't see it. On the Limerick 37 forum we are described as "pi$$ poor". It's a bit harsh, but the odd flash of inspiration aside, there's no getting away from the fact that the team is still not up to the job and not 'learning' fast enough.
I'm surprised to see you being so negative. Read some of the match reports from the game and they're very positive about the Wexford performance. Not only that but your quoting Lim Til I Die saying we were 'Pi$$ poor', but he also points out that Limerick were only marginally better, that's a Limerick team that's in a strong promotion position. And Lim Til I Die, nice guy and all as I'm sure he is, will never have a good word to say about us (it's the fear you see).Quote:

Limerick weren't great, it's true, but it's WYFC I'm concerned about. I hadn't intended to be so critical so early, but it's plain to me, having seen them in all of the home games, that they are not much better than they were back in March, when they were expected to struggle. I really hope you're right about where we finish, but it's a bit depressing and frustrating when they still don't seem to be able to do a lot of the basics right.Quote:

Heh heh, little do they know that the hands of those of those brave Wexford martyrs had been exposed to ridiculously high levels of polonium radiation! Tick - tock - tick - tock... ;)Quote:

Surely that should tell you something??
I've been going to league of Ireland 14 years and I can honestly say you are probably the worst team I have ever seen
The way ye try to play the game is Wrong, Wrong, Wrong and ye, as fans, shouldn't just sit idly back and take it
Part of the reason your crowds are dwindling is because the way ye play is rubbish, no escaping that.
I have absolutely no problem with ye as people. Infact we all commented on the way home about how nice your fans were compared to some of the ther places in the league.
I have absolutely no problem with the concept of your club. I wish ye well, hope you suceed, but it's not going to happen playing the way you do
Of Wexford Youth??Quote:
(it's the fear you see).
LMAO
I'm actually more afraid of being killed falling out of bed
Come back to me in 70 years
I've always found NOC to be a gentleman. Never had any problem with him that wasn't football related.Quote:

The Parasite on the other hand, is a parasite
My opinions on neither would cloud my judgement on Wexfords football though. They're an utterly, utterly hapless shambles of a team
Only because our lads were a disgrace to the shirtQuote:

Have a look at the Limerick forum to see what happens when you criticise your own club :eek::DQuote:

It's easy to pick on the weakest of the bunch, but as we go on, we'll get stronger and stronger and that'll show. What goes around eventually comes around, and i'll stand beside you and say that i'm proud of them all too, no matter where they finish.
Exactly lads. Even the training seems to be geared more towards next season. It's still very heavy fitness, the players were saying after the Finn Harps match that they just didn't have any legs for it. Everything is a building process. The fitness and experience will be at the right level next season and a lot of people will be surprised by the improvement. I hope. :ball:Quote:

do we have those kind of players at lims37...so if lims 37 are not an instant sucess this season YOU will be first in line looking for skees head will you.Quote:
