    Derry

    Need I say more? Big interest around the town already it seems. Big game = big crowd = big loss.

    Take a draw but if we pox a win and we peg em back to 4 points......

    This is most likely what will happen but........

    According to the Derry fans Derry have been very poor since the break in June so no reason Limerick couldn't get a win here.

    I'm going to go for it to be a 1-1 finish with att: 800

    1-0 Limerick.

    There'd be nothing better than an edgy last 10 minutes with Derry pouring on the pressure, but we hold out for a win.

    I reckon we will beat Derry. Unlucky not to get a point against them last time they came down, and we are now a much better team. Hopefully Steve O firing on all cylinders will make the difference. Limerick 2 - 1 Derry, and the title momentum well and truly with the Super Blues.

    This has to be the biggest game this season if not the biggest in the last few years.Could be a defining moment in the clubs history!!! A win will surely push us on to promotion i believe. 2 nil to the Super Blues and over 1000 to witness it.

    I really struggle to see us pouring on the pressure against anyone at the minute.

    We also won't know how to defend SteveO.

    He has a groin injury not sure if he will play Friday.

    Could be without John Sullivan and Timmy Kiely too and Dave O Leary out for 3 weeks after a horrible tackle against Mervue.

    O'Flynn, O'Leary and Sullivan are massive losses. Lucky for us we have a decent squad.

    Guess it all depends on HOW bad this bad patch of Derry's really is?

    For friday night people, arrive early. If you can get out to Knockalisheen or to ticketmaster and buy your tickets early.

    Steve may make it for Friday yet but even if he doesn't i think Clarkey and JT have enough to cause problems.

    I agree with Monkfish on the big crowd thing though.

    4-5-1 JT to play off Clarke out wide, change roles every 10 mins. Derry wont know what to do. Stevo to come on 10 mins before the end to score. Limerick 1 - 3 Derry.

    Are Peter White and Sean Kelly available or are they injured? With O Sullivan and O Leary out i think it will be important to have a strong defense so having Kelly at right full and White sitting infront of the back 4 like he has in previous games would set us up nicely i think. Will be hoping for a line up like this:

    ...................Ryan...................

    Kelly.....Purcell....Rogers.....Deady

    .................White...................

    ...Ryan........Lyons..........Tracey

    ........Tierney/OFlynn......Clarke....

    Edit: I forgot about Heary. Thought he did very well last week, much better than the previous week. Maybe put White at right full and Heary in front of the back four.
