Thanks Bossman. Disappointed that its 3 team groups again. Losing the first game is near impossible to come back from. Happy with our group though. Were dates given for the fixtures?

Anybody know the Limerick team think it was picked last night.

**blueboy2** · 14/10/2010, 1:31 PM

Any truth in rumour that the Pike players declined to play for the limerick league thats why the squad is not picked yet was talking to a pike man and he told me the same.

**Longshanks** · 14/10/2010, 2:26 PM

Is the Oscar Traynor taken seriously in many leagues?? for a few years the top players in the Sligo/Leitirm couldnt be bothered with it

if thats the case get on with it.there are still enough players good enough to get on the team that would love to play oscar traynor and are being overlooked every year because thay are not playing with the so called bigger teams.

ANY PLAYER FROM ANY CLUB who declines to play for the league, can be suspended by the league if a valid excuse is not provided.Not sure if this is just a local rule in Limerick but if the rumour is true, it puts the LDMC in a pickle once again...They must be the best league in the country for shooting themselves in the feet....

Surely a player has a right to refuse to play?

Why would a player not want to represent his league and put on a Limerick Jersey is this what junior football is gone to in Limerick.

**blueboy2** · 14/10/2010, 11:15 PM

Its a well known fact that players playing oscar traynor football have also been picked for the Irish junior squad and have being capped for their country.
What better incentive could you want and you dont have to be a Pike or Fairview player either.

**Fairkop** · 14/10/2010, 11:21 PM

but sure lads last year they only had 11 players for a match in cork,every player should want to represent his league but is it being run right,going on last year it does not seem so.

**blueboy2** · 14/10/2010, 11:28 PM

I thought Aidan Ryan was back after the fiasco of last year dident he bring limerick to the final a couple of years ago only to be beaten on penalties.

**mufc** · 15/10/2010, 2:40 AM

if pike players didnt represent i think the team would be very very poor and wudnt have a chance

**manalishi** · 15/10/2010, 10:58 AM

Surely the standard of football in Limerick is still good enough to field great side without Pike players?
