Hey lads,
I know you got rid of the '37' bit of the name but are you now known as Limerick or Limerick FC or are both of those correct?!

They were talking about the Schools International that Jason Hughes is playing in against England on Friday. Its on Sky Sports 2 and as far as I know Hughes is captain of that team. Called us Limerick 37 though

Wierd that

I've also wondered why one and all refer to us as Limerick FC and not just Limerick. It's quite unusual. Nobody talks about Shelbourne FC or Dundalk FC after all.

**LK37oldskool** · 23/04/2009, 12:16 PM

i suppose its to do with the amount of re-incarnations we've had.Never quite sure which time-zone we're in so its easier to refer to the FC/37/United to know which era we're refering to.

We're just fishing. If you've changed your name in the last 24 hours, you'll probably object to us calling the club by the old name.

Wasn't there one season when our official name was "Limerick FC Football Club"?

**pineapple stu** · 23/04/2009, 3:10 PM

Yeah, I think I still have the scarf. "Football Club" was on the crest where "Commitment to Excellence" is now, as I recall. 2004, it would have been.

You have a scarf which says "Limerick FC Football Club"?

I think the "commitment to excellence" has been gone for a couple of years now. My avatar was the last crest to have that.
