I see Aidan Ryan, Noel O' Connor's former number two at Limerick is the manager for the coming season.
Anyone any idea on when this competition starts?

you could hazard a guess, people will have opinions but at the end of the day it will be aidan picking the squad. Hope he picks people who want to do really well in this. The league needs to push this more in rewarding players maybe some training gear etc would not be a bad idea.Quote:

I think the squad will consist mainly of Fairview and Pike players witha few from Regional maybe. From reports i've heard, Maher from Summerville has a good chance of making it too, a lot of teams are chasing him Ian I think his name is, think he is a younger brother of Cyril but supposed to be a lot better.
I see the OT team are down to play on Thursday Night the 25th Oct at Jackman Park against Cork SL
Bit strange fixing a game without announcing the squad?
Apparently he has contacted most of the squad himself already.Quote:

Is that Hickey and Hartigan, so?
was talking to a Regional player and he told me that they have 4 on it
Anthony Russell - Keeper
Mark Sheehan - Left Back
Shane O Donoghue - Midfield
Ger Bourke - Midfield
Danny Galvin turned it down
Heard Dunphy from Balla and Heffernan from Kilmallock are also in.
Also heard that aa keeper and Regional keeper are in and that Stewert was not asked.
can't believe smackers was overlooked for the regional keeper. Just shows what aidan ryan knows about football.
does anyone actually know what the entire squad is ???????
frankie lee turned it down

Jesus, every time Pike try and fail to sign a player, they say he was only asked as back up, but when they succeed in signing a player, its because he's a class act.Quote:

how many games has Barry played? whose christy doyle? no left side of midfield player picked either i thought that red haired guy for wembley would be in the squad for sureQuote:

CM: Hartnett
CM: Wall
LM: Boyle
RM: Bourke
CF: Barry
CF: Guerin
by far not the best team that could have been put together. How much premier football has Ryan seen. No left winger in the squad and a lack of centre forwards. Wong and Heffernan??
is that the same Burke who played with limerick?
big shortage of forwards if barry is going to play considering his been out for the last 6 months..
if barry is in it id have paul harmon in the squad
robert brock for balla is a left winger!Quote:

Ado Fitzsimmons as well
I know that both are comming back from injury but they were outstanding all of last season..
He is actually a centre forward being played left wing. He was never a winger growing up in schoolboys or minor.Quote:
