Could they not just run the pitchs and around the bowl free of charge in that case? I mean why bother getting up on a sunday morning and not at least do a bit?Originally Posted by superhero
would not be so sure about Finny going back, Limerick were asked to leave UL yesterday morning because they had not paid for the facilities, now how can the club offer contracts to players when they can't pay for training facilities? oh and my sources are 4 players who are currently training with Limerick and have played the last couple of seasons.

total bull****! for a start we all prob know the four ur talking about. Limerick FC have rented no outdoor grass facilites at this time of the year cos most of them are unplayable. If we didnt rent them then why pay for them???Limerick have rented at great expense indoor and all weather facilities for this time of the year. now the fact that your buds are running stories to you already from simply training for a few weeks makes me wonder will the club, should the club offer any of them any sort of contract. Contracts run from March to November with Limerick, this is early feb. Amateurs can be signed at the moment professionals up to early march. Friendly this sat but im sure your lads will let us know where
nothing wrong with danagher and purcell but if budget allows it he must strengthen the squad,after last season we have to be promotion favourites along with sporting man city fingal.
I dont think Limerick had rented the pitches at UL and therefore werent paying for their use...But they were asked to leave them last sunday...
Indeed but if Finny gets involved again then the Wickham St gossip queens will have to be taken on board as usual.
All I have to say to this is that I was there on Sunday, as I am every Sunday, and no one has ever been asked to leave AFAIK. Not only do we play there unimpeded but there are often full teams using a quarter of the pitch for training.
If it happens to clash with training by one of the UL teams then that's that, but if not, then everyone is free to use it so why should they pay?
Back on topic: Darren Young and Finny would be great additions to an already strong team. I'd love to see Tommy back in MF with Wayne.

I think Paddy has a lot to prove this year tbh. He never got back to form after his injury last season, was carrying weight throughout and could benefit from some competition for places. Danagher did much better than him last year. If Paul Finucane is anywhere near the type of player he was then Danno and Finni would probably be my choice if they were able to gel in pre-season.
The ball is round and has many surprises.
A back four of Brian O'Callaghan, Finny, Paddy and Young would be formidable.
A middle four of Tommy, Wayne Colbert, Jason Hughes and Conor Molan would be decent.
Gary Sheehan and John Tierney up front would score a few goals.
Thats not a bad side...and I know theres a few more we could call on....
Then why did Dave Mahedy refuse to let the team into the arena on Sunday morning to train?
They were asked to leave the pitch due to the poor condition's underfoot, no more or less than that.nothing to do with money.

What time was that at?
The pitches are a major concern there at the moment with UL clubs unable to play on them because of conditions and them being saved for the Harding Cup this week

Slightly off topic but just thought I'd mention Limerick FC futsal team played at UL on Sunday, beating both Galway and Cork. Only pre-tournament friendlies though.
LTID
Any news on the status of the licence for the clubs.
later this month.

Licence/Academy
Any news on the Academy that Limerick FC were supposed to be doing i think i would be fab for the kids in the city & county .
Incorrect, I was actually speaking to someone from UL last night and Limerick owe UL money and from now on will not be allowed to use the facilities there, also the players don't even know where or if they will be training this week
They owe money all over the place. Thats why we need sponsorship to geep the club afloat. the people who are running the club now are doing a fine job with little of nothing.
