wasn't a great game to watch,scoreline a little flattering to Limerick
Limerick 4-1 Janesboro
Fairly run of the mill stuff with nearly everyone getting a run out. Game marred by an unfortunete hand/thumb injury to 'boros Alan Barry.
Thats it really.

Didnt even know this was on. Who scored? Any stand out surprise performances?

Flattering? Limerick should have been 5 up at half time the boro keeper pulled off some great saves. they scored about the first time they got in the half. They were much better in the second half alright when limerick relaxed a bit.Thought Lyons and molan were excellent for limerick dave ryan looked disinterested in goals, callaghan looked good if a bit rusty also, Barrett, Purcell were consistent as usual nothing spectacular just doing there bit .for boro alan barry clarke and the little left back (dont know his name eddie i think were good oh ya keeper pulled off a few good reflex saves in the first half too
Shane Clarke opened the scoring for 'Boro with a free kick.
Limerick equalised with a penalty from Paul Walsh, he also scored the second.
Third one followed a missed penalty by Cummins, Daly got the second re-bound after 'boro keeper saved the pen and the first re-bound.
I cant remember now who scored the fourth (long day!).
Limerick were well on top first half but some poor finishing (O'Callaghan had a great chance but headed the ball straight to the keeper, to name one example). Second half 'Boro came into it a lot more and was fairly evenly matched. I'd agree the scoreline flattered us a bit.
LTID
first half i thought boro put up a fight, second half after limerick brought on a load of subs (six i think) boro got on top for about five mins but faded big time. really shuld have been a lot more but for the waver light strikeforce limerick had on for the last twenty mins. good nights free entertainment though
Boro lined out as follows
1 D Glasheen(just back from a stag weekend in Edinburgh)
2 A Healy(B player just back from a stag weekend in Edinburgh)
3 E O'Donovan(played 2 games the previous day)
4 D Fitzgerald(the man who's stag they were on)
5 I Storan(Limerick player)
6 N Farrell(hasn't played since minor last year,and doesn't look like he will again)
7 A Barry(hasn't played since before Xmas)
8 E Brazier(on the lash all weekend)
9 S Clarke(played 120 mins the previous day,and played injured)
10 T Butler(played 120 mins the previous day)
11 ???
subs:youth players,B players
lads not getting at ye but i expected more,ye weren't great like,in saying that ye have some cracking individuals in Hughes,Lyons and Deady.I would of liked to have seen our starting 11 against yer own,would of been more of a match but Boro made as many subs in the second half as ye and all except Mark Keane and Paul O'Donoghue(both B players)were Minor players.
playing in that astro didnt help ethier its not an excuse but it would have been a totally different game on grass..good competitive game tho man of the match i thought was yellow he stood out a mile and scanlon isnt up to much..well done to the youth players for us gave a good account of them selfs..i like to wish alan barry a speedy recovery![]()

ya thats him he's also the projectile vomiter

Earlier in the season he did not play due to injury and international commitments. However, in recent games when available always starts. Has not been as impressive as last season but hes playing more a defensive role under Scully as opposed to the more attacking nature which suited him better under Kerley. However, still a very decent and promising player!
