First Division latest

[Lim till i die]

I'll be gunning for the games down in Limerick next season. Hasn't been a boring game down there since our demtion.

See, that's a good reason though.

The game where we beat you 3-2 was an absolute belter of a game.

Good post LTID

Ps Is Colin Scanlon available this w/e to come up to us and switch on the xmas lights in Dundalk ?

[GalwayRed]

Ill be looking forward to those games because the amount of optimism limerick fans have makes me think they could be significant in the push for promotion next season.

I'd have to contact the club but I'd say so.

Colin had only made a couple of substitute First team appearances for us after being one of the stars of our very mediocre A team.

He might be available for you to sign for next season.

I think on our day we will probably be the best side in the division and will be up around the top four or five all season but ultimately I don't think we will have the budget and hence the squad to still be challenging at the end of the season.

But on our day you'll get a great game.

... to beat their little fists and scweam loudly about bad, mean, ole Limerick and how tewwible they are?

Just how funny do you think a speech impediment is?

Agreed. Keep the lads together and their belief alone will do wonders.

Interesting.....Im assuming that the report in extratime is overexaggerating when they say players would boycott the end of season awards in protest? The board are being a bit harsh on Gill here, i mean he has got dundalk promoted twice in 3 attempts.

I don't know the story with individual journalists to be honest..

So you can't really say that the article was biased against Dundalk when we don't know who the individual journalist who wrote it.

I like generalising though and assuming there is an anti-Dundalk bias out there (which there is )..

Mervue won 3-0

[gael353]

net gain of fans.....about 25/30 woopie!

[brianw82]

Wow, Newbridge is really the place to be if you wanna gain promotion!

[dcfcsteve]

Will Mervue be offered - and accept - a place in the league ?

I hope not. The league needs a team in Kildare more than another one in Galway.

It was a relegation / promotion play-off, surely the team that wins it will be promoted and offered a place in the League?

The FAI would never do something like stop a club from entering the League after winning the play-off... Oh wait...

Ah yes, to add to the millions of teams in the LOI from Galway.

Good luck to Mervue and all that but I think it might break the club, as they are not ready IMO.

Another club from Leinster, close to Dublin and less than 50kms from Rovers...
