Is he in the matchday squad? No sign of him in many preseason games.

Ya he doesn't seem to be in around the squad at the moment. Could be injured but I wouldn't be sure. Not sure what squad Scully has gone up with for tonights game.

Will go for a narrow 0-1 away win to start things off nicely up in Ballybofey, before the 456-0 badgering we give Salthill next week. Stating the obvious, but McHugh will need to be taken care of tonight otherwise things could get hairy.

Not a bad result atall after trailing twice

**LK37oldskool** · 04/03/2011, 9:08 PM

Stevo got a straight red - gonna be out for next 3 games.Not a bad result.Not too many will get points up there.

Sheahan in hospital in Letterkenny with a broken leg.

As a Youths supporter, shocking news about Gary. Hope he recovers soon.

this is a nightmare and a very costly night no stevo for 3 games and now with gary breaking his leg prob out for 4 or 5 months. can limerick cope without or two first choice strikers??

**Jofspring** · 05/03/2011, 9:55 AM

No stevo or Gary are two huge losses. Makes the trips to cork and shelbourne ten times tougher now. Can't believe that for bad luck for game of the season. Hope Gary Sheehan gets well soon.

Terrible news. It wasn't in the match report so I'm going to pretend its not true, at least for now anyway. Gary out for most of the season would be a huge loss, possibly 15 goals and definitely takes steam out of a promotion bid. Haven't seen the new lads playing yet but by all accounts we have a very strong squad so lets hope we can absorb it. I assume John Tierney has signed somewhere and is not available?
Hopefully its a simple break and Gary will be back playing football soon.

Tierney was with some Junior side last I heard - Pike, was it? But either way he's unavailable. Hopefully the likes of Hynes and Breen can step up now.

Scully said it on the radio this morning re Gary

Tierney with Pike we couldn't afford to get him back I'd say so the story goes

**bluewhitearmy** · 05/03/2011, 11:19 AM

Gary was in a bad bad way lastnight ttook them ages to even get himm into the ambulance..Heard he is having surgery this morning very doubtful if he will play again this year.

Steve O Flynn should be ashamed of himself we were down Gary who was clearly badly hurt Dave o Leary had gone off with a gash to teh head Paddy Purcell had to play up front because he was injured but wouldnt go off cos we had no subs and then Steve goes and headbutts someone disgraceful.

Wont have him now for 4 games which seriously hurts our promotion hopes already.

**LK37oldskool** · 05/03/2011, 12:50 PM

this is no doubt a terrible start to the season.Gary seemed to be having a wonderful pre season and his partnership with Stevo looked awesome.Sympathies to gary and wish him a speedy recovery. Is the transfer window closed? No chance of gettin anyone one in over the next week? i see that Glen Crowe is still unsigned and training with a Dublin junior side.What the chance there.

Could seriously do with more coming in defence was a shambles lastnight and midfield may aswell have not been there.

**thomas72** · 05/03/2011, 3:11 PM

Or lack firepower now is a massive worry.

One of the major moves in pre season was balls being knocked behind the fullback for Gary to run in behind, it even worked 3 or four times last night, now Glen Crowe has many talents but i'm not sure he's our man for that!

With Gary gone I fear we're gonna now spend a lot more time playing around infront of the opposition back four rather than behind it.

Cork away in two weeks (Paddy out for this aswell as the two lads!!) and Shels two weeks after already potentially look like write offs and then we're left playing catch up after five games.

We either need a wholesale switch to plan B now or we need Garbhan Coughlan or Chris Breen to be amazing.

Lads now is not the time for DEFEATIST talk,one game into a league,its up to the rest of the team to stand up and be counted.For Gary the Fans and Limerick.
