    Athlone this Friday

    As monkfish said in the shels thread this will not be an easy one. Our tight pitch and their gient central defence of Breen and McCarthy will not be easy to break down. A solid midfield where Wayne could play with jason Hughes being used as a link man behind a quality striker in O'Brien. Looking like a draw for me

    Wayne playing right back for them and O Brien hasn't played for them and from what im told wants out already.
    Will be tough to break down alright very tough but i think we will sneak it.
    1-0 Limerick.

    I'd be feeling alot more comfortable if Limerick had stipulated in the loan deal that Hughes couldn't play against us!

    Can it not? You learn something new every day

    Anyway, Limerick should have the beating of Athlone. But the First Division this year isn't that simple!

    unblevble the biggest wage bill in years quality all over the squad and yere worried about athlone at home..you have too be beating the likes of athlone if ther is any aspirations of promotion...heary Ryan Rodgers and Flynn 4 of the most experienced and talented players in the division.. if Limerick can't get promotion this season the blame can only rest on the shoulders of the icon westbury loving manager!!!

    Icon Westbury? sounds like an internet/Telephone provider in upstate New York. What in Gods name are you on about?

    If we dont get promoted this year i'll blame on a very good Derry side, that and a half decent Waterford and Monaghan team.

    No point in getting promoted til we have a proper ground anyway.

    Easy to say we should be beating the likes of Athlone cause they are further down the league but all the top 4 or 5 have struggled to beat them, a lot have only got draws out of Athlone. They are very defensive and will be hard to break down. If we score early it will be a total different story and i can see us scoring a few goals but if Athlone hold strong for 50 or 60 mins and try catch us on the break we could get caught out.

    You can only stop a player playing against his parent club in a cup game not in the league. Thats what i have been told anyway.

    I know this isn't LOI but did Joe Hart play for Birmingham against Man City last year? I could've sworn he was ineligible in the league.

    Anyway regardless, what kinda crowd should we be expecting? I won't be able to make it myself (heading to Galway - where I'll be for the Mervue match, handily enough )

    Don't know what you are all worrying about. Purcell will take Hughes out of it in a 4-0 win for the Super Blues.

    I think we will win this and with the squad that is there now, we should be expecting to win it. 2-0 limerick.

    Easy to say we should do this or that but how many have seen Athlone play or know what players the have signed?

    I think we will win but it will not be easy.

    3rd from bottom.
    But they will come down and just park in front of goal they did it at home at the start of the year.
    I still the think the likes of Stevo,Bobby and JT will find a way through as Jofspring says if we score early we will make things far easier for ourselves.

    Definitely don't have a bigger budget then Derry and i highly doubt its the same as St.Pats.
    From what i'm told Jason can play.
    Doubt the lads will get abuse will probably be a bit of banter alright.
    Why the interest in Limerick v Athlone if your avatar is a Pats jersey?
