    First manager of the season gone

    Just heard on 2fm sports news that Mike Kerley has resigned as Manager of Limerick . . . statement to be issued by the club later.

    That's one down, 21 to go.

    Who will be next?

    Even bigger now he's gone

    Also, Galway can hardly throw stones at anyone for being a shambles of a club at this stage can they? (Not many clubs in this league can) Weren't you guys supposed to have won the title by now according to Nick Leeson and Conor H's masterplan?

    hold on a tick... i never called limerick a shambles of a club....

    i was merely speculating that perhaps you might not do as well this year as some of your fans would have hoped!

    Ah Conor H the bastion of sanity and fairness along with his sidekick Gilberto they were the best comedy double act to ever hit foot !

    To be fair i thought Limerick would have improved this year but the same as every year they get a nose bleed when they look to be climbing a ladder. Expect another injury time winner to deny a team promotion to be celebrated like a proper trophy for the lims !

    The season hasnt technically started yet, its pre-season, so he may not be the first of the season's casulties but rather the last of last season's casulties.

    NOC name was been thrown around yesterday before it was known that Kerley had even stepped down. It would feel like a step backwards getting NOC again but with only two weeks to go till the start of the season he might be the best candidate.

    He didn't want to sign him back

    Club had to sign Gary back without Mike's consent, that was one of the problems

    Sadly I am. It says something about how much Mike's working relationship with the club had broken down when the club had to get Gary to sign a contract against the manager's wishes.

    Not sure why he didn't want him to be fair, he's probably the best striker in the league

    I doubt that Limerick will reach the playoffs this year with or without kerley you's have signed very little players. During the final round of games during 2007 and 2008 season you's improved getting some good results but teams like shelbourne fingal have strengthened this season and then you've teams like waterford ucd finn harps etc
    ahead of Limerick

    Wouldn't consider sheehan a find by kerley either, he played a couple of games the season before too. According to somone in the limerick forum kerley didn't want to sign shane tracey or peter white either, two good players in my opinion.
