heard hes going to fairview plus kelleher told me he wants to go back to lim37 but was never asked by kerley hope this is not true pure waste:mad:
I'd have Robbie back in two seconds.Quote:

Kerley is apparently a real stickler for it.
How's he looking these days??
The Heff doesnt need to play for money anymore, he can comfortably
live off the small fortune he made from Athlone Town last season!
And the booming "taping of weddings" job that will probably occupy him most Friday and Saturday evenings, meaning he wouldn't have time to play anyway.Quote:

Heffernan should be signed now, or truth be told, should have been signed ahead of Peter White. Or even better still, ahead of Manjor and a few others.......
we already have rossi theres no room for another winger standing up doing f**k all for 90 mins..
id sign white before heffernan even though they play in different positions
Exactly, lot of people with short memories methinks.Quote:

A half-interested Heffernan versus the combined 100% commitment of Manjor, Daly and another couple of the dregs combined... hmmm what a difficult choice... :rolleyes:
Would he even be half interested anymore though? Ahree that he's gopt more natural talent in his left thumb then some of our current crop, but considering Colm 'The Money' Heffernan usually charges for his services I'm not sure it would be worth itQuote:

A player who has accepted large pay packets at other clubs? Shameful! Colm Heffernan has made more of an effort to stay in the LOI than most ex-Limerick players who just slope off to play at a lower level again afterwards. If Colm Heffernan is interested in playing for Limerick38 or whatever we're going to settle on as our new name and if he's not pricing himself out of a contract (two important ifs I'll concede) then we should snap him up ASAP.Quote:

I'm told Heffernan was not pricing himself out of a deal but other lesser lights were signed before him thus eating up the budget, which is a strict one this season. I'd like to see a few released in the transfer window as the amount of players we have is not needed. I'd like to see Heff being the only new signing. Comparing Rossi to Heff is comical, and makes you wonder what some people are watching when they're at the games..... :rolleyes:Quote:

And what if he actually made half an effort? :o If we're as wonderfully run as we're being told it wouldn't be like the mickey ouse setups that Heffernan was involved with at Athlone last year and Limerick the year before that (and even when practically the whole lot of them bar Austin O'Neill collapsed against Galway that season it was Heffernan who popped up to score) so he'll have more reason to be motivated.
Nobody has offered any good reason that Colm Heffernan should not be appoached. We're told he's not pricing himself out of a move and there's at least four players in or around our first eleven who shouldn't be within a donkey's roar of senior ball, especially out wide... it's hardly a conumdrum!
Anyone have an actual ball park figure for how much he'd be willing to sign on for so we can end this merry-go-round? Cause his wages are the deal breaker for those of us who doubt whether the guy should be signed up or not, not his level of ability
he plays with blinkers on 1 trick pony kinda player i doubt he interests kerley and the way he wants he's team playingQuote:

It's a pair of balls and the need for someone to constantly give him a kick up the backside. Rossi is capable, but he's cowardly, he pulls out of challenges and 50/50's.Quote:

Hardly Heff's fault they paid him well, and he was far from the only one on big money there.
There is NO comparison between Heff on his top game and Rossi on his top game (something i've never seen come to think of it)
No, more like how long are peoples memories? Rossi as good as Heff? :p Some people know nothing about football, or else have very poor memories. For Heffs last stint at Limerick, read above....Quote:

Can you please tell me where you've come up with your genius assumption that you "doubt he interests kerley and the way he wants he's team playing"?! What Colm Heffernan are you talking about, and more to the point, what Mike Kerely are you talking about?! I'm afraid you're talking $hite. Back in to your box FFS :rolleyes::pQuote:

On an aside how many of our current crop is Ebbie better then? I say at least three of them! :D
We should at least wait until we see their sisters before passing judgement. :ball:Quote:
