Think we need strikers and from some rumours i am hearing we are talking to another vey good one apart from Behan.
Tierney has been played as a winger which is where I think he is better. With Judge playing so well there he would be doing well to take his place if he returned.
Hopefully the other striker is good cause I really can't see Behan signing.
JT possibly going to Athlone
Wouldn't surprise me if he did but if he couldn't commit to Limerick at the start of the season it would be unusual to commit to a team up the country (all be it only an hour and a half drive). I wonder do the Limerick lads train in Limerick with Kerley.
whether tis Behan or someone else it's obvious from the last few games, a reliable striker is needed.Hynes is a good team player and works really hard in every game but he wont bag the amount of goals needed for promotion.Don't know whats wrong with Stevo,wish he'd concentrate on his own game instead of mouthing off to his team mates every match.
"We've had a lot of good times, but you don't know how good they are until you have the bad ones" Tony Adams
You wouldnt mind the bad form as much if he was working as hard as the other lads but at times he is not far off Sean O'Connnor for just not looking bothered...
Behan was at the game tonight said he met club officials at half time and according to one of the lads taht was talking to him after the game he said the club made him good offer and he wil decide soon.
Cork or Limerick??
Limerick this week maybe next week for Cork..
We are in serious need of a striker though.
he was definitely there. saw him in his car parked across from the ground after the game. buddies saw him heading into the club house with limerick officials at half time
I take we will still be waiting till July for him if he takes up Limericks offer. That means we will have another 3 league games and 2 cup games played in that time. With the mounting injuries its going to be a tough few weeks.
Just hope that the offer we have made him isn't ridiculous if it is the best he has got and if it is he'll have a lot to do to earn it. Look at Bobby Ryan last season.

He was def there he was standing up watching the game in front of us.
Heard Barry sheedy from kmallock is also signing,a very good young player,striker as well
Good player, a bit small for LOI though
68, 99, 08
Is he a part of their minor team? If so i'd say he is signed for the A and u19 team. With the injuries at the moment though there is a good chance for a lot of the younger lads to get into the first team.
He played most of his football with premier team,he was over in England as well with west ham I think,also capped with Irish youth team,if you're good enough you're big enough,and this fella is,has real potential
Have to agree with that. Plenty of small players doing very well for themselves. Hopefully he does sign and has the potential you mention. The more good young players the better.
There will be a fair few signings in the next weeks or so as the under 19s are due to be assembled. Upwards of 20 players will prob be signed after being scouted by club scouts for the last 6 months.

Behan set to sign for Limerick

Limerick are set to sign former Cork City striker Denis Behan according to City boss Tommy Dunne.
The Leesiders had looked at bringing the striker back to Turner’s Cross after a failed spell cross-channel but Behan, originally from Abbeyfeale, looks set to sign for Limerick after they offered him a handsome deal.
Dunne said: "I spoke to Denis today and it looks like he's going to sign for Limerick.
“To be honest, what Limerick are paying him the likes of Shamrock Rovers would find it hard to compete with.
"I don't know where they're getting their money from, you talk about the 65% rule with regard to turnover, they're getting 300 people through the gate and they're able to dish out that sort of money.
It follows today’s announcement that Limerick have signed seven other players from local junior clubs in the county and Tipperary.
