How do you know they won't? I don't ever remember it being mooted at Junior Council meetings before....

Great idea, I dont think anyone is a fan of Sunday morning games.

**leather** · 21/10/2008, 2:06 PM

this is a crowd that ruled that a projector was not allowed to be used by the council itself..... at their own agm
unless certain clubs get lights i would be very suprised to even hear it being discussed...
I have had numerous dealings with that crowd.... more intelligence in a pea..

A projector "We'll have none of that witch craft here"...

the reason that saturday afternoon matches wont work is because of rugby. the AIL league is on saturday afternoon and alot of people and players are involved with both sports. also the fact that they will attract crowds aswell means it always wont mean bigger crowds at matches. im not saying everyone is involved in rugby but the fact is it wouldn't suit players playing both sports and the fans of both.

as i said i think there is grants to be got for them and the crowds are much bigger on a friday night than a sunday and by extension the bar does a better trade.

Ya but you play in dublin in the intermediate league so theres obviously more of a demand because the standard is higher.The winner of the junior premier league in dublin gets a trip away,south africa last year i think so theres obviously alot more money in dublin.

im probably gonna sound life an awful big headed so and so but football wise yes the standard in the league im playing in now is higher than the premier league in limerick but the facilties in limerick more than match any of them. janesboro, pike, fairviews facilities are second to none and aisling regional etc are not far behind

the lights i believe are truly a great idea, say for example janesboro, fairview or pike had them in, and on a friday night pike are playing regional in the league at 7:30 in the pike field, it would draw a massive crowd plus pike would clean up in the bar with both sets of players having a good few drinks before heading into town for a night out.

the winners of the junior premier league in dublin (aul) went to south africa last year and miami the year before courtesy of the sponsors of the league, nivea and the star newspaper, so its not all to do with money insofar as the league dont have to front up the money

Its mark.Obviously the standard is higher,its a step up from junior and 1 away from eircom league.It would be a great idea,every team have floodlights but cant see it happening.Limerick premier league is sponsored by the kilmurry lodge.Cant see them stumping up the cash for a trip abroad.

Last played ball with Dines Junior "A" team about 5 season's back, and lasted 3 or 4 games, and then went AWOL, dont think he ever played again, but was a fine player at minor and schoolboy level..
