    that doesnt mean we don't expect more!

    I actually think 2 titles, 2 cups, 3 league cup and a setanta cup (plus something like 18 Munster Senior Cups) in 27 years isn't a bad start.

    In my opinion such arrogance has no place in supporting a football team.

    It makes me cringe just like that awful "we're from Cork and we're better than you" chant.

    Dunno about anyone else but I'd argue Derry are pretty much the same Club. Limerick were formed whenever they became L37 I thought

    It's not like that's an original Cork chant.

    Then surely Cork are a new team by the same logic. What really in Limerick FC changed? Due to a legal issue the club had to change its name for a season and a half and then reverted back to limerick FC. There may have been different owners and chairmen in limerick but the same people have been working in or around the club when we where Limerick FC then Limerick 37 and now Limeick FC. We have had the same fans and a lot of the same players.

    Just because a piece of paper might say that legally (i don't know the specifics) we are a different club, to the fans and the people of limerick we are the same club and that's all that really matters to us.

    I agree with you razor. The way some cork fans go on you would swear no other club or fans want to be successful but it's just a cork thing cause that's the way they are. You can want to win things and be successful but also be realistic.

    I haven't ever met a single fan from another club that hasn't wanted their club to win things, it's just not all fans go around shouting from the roof tops that we are better than ye because we some how think we expect to win more than ye.

    Yer all new clubs, otherwise ye would all be working off the same debts that folded the club in the first place (or the 2nd, 3rd, etc)

    Harps were extremely unlucky not to win never mind lose down in Tolka eralier this season, we had stone wall peno turned down and a perfectly fine goal disallowed in that game, Shels scored with only goal effort on target.

    But Cork City were still around when Cork FORAS came along so there is no way you could possible say it was the same club....

    Either we are all new clubs or we are all old clubs...Not that i really care just dont get why Cork fans think they are different..

    Dont get how you think you and Derry are not new and we are at all.

    So why change name?

    Danny Drew who was the owner of Limerick FC at the time was basically wanted out by the FAI. He was battling to hold onto the name Limerick FC because as far as he was concerned he still owned the club. Nobody wanted Drew involved and a new group of people wanted to basically take over the senior team in limerick. The only way they could do this was by changing the name.

    As I say as far as we are concerned here the same people have been doing the hard work behind the scenes and the same fans have been going to games through all the hard times so it's basically the same club. Certainly in our eyes anyway.

    Incorrect in Limericks case.

    You'd a load of hoss to say about Pat O'Sullivan earlier on in the year aswell if memory serves.

    You should arguably devote all your energies to sorting out Finn Harps rather than picking up sticks by their wrong end.

    Harps were extremely unlucky not to win never mind lose down in Tolka eralier this season, we had stone wall peno turned down and a perfectly fine goal disallowed in that game, Shels scored with only goal effort on target.
    They'll rinse ye tonight.
