Was at that game too. Longford looked handy but the opposition have to be factored into that alright. Encouraging start though and nice to see ex-Limerick lads Corie Tracey and Bambi McCarthy doing well.

Glad to have been of help. Haven't got the weather forecast for that night yet, but I'll try to keep you posted.

Very good game in Oriel last night... Big crowd saw the ball played on the deck for the whole of the match... very enjoyable...the problem with dundalk was they had no out and out wingers on the team but all were comfortable on the ball....

Just on a side note, shouldn't finn have moved on (no offence rovers), sure wasn't he the golden boy of the league?... future international... everytime I have seen him (albeit not much at all ) he was never up to much... at 25 not much more time left to get a move to England ...

The U19s league is the only one that matters this week. Real season starts next week

Treacy especially has impressed me a lot the few times I've seen him for us. Looks like an excellent signing.

He's a good footballer. I think most Limerick fans would happily have kept him. Can do a decent job anywhere across the back four too.

Half an hour gone in Cobh, and they're 1-0 up. Conor Meade the scorer.

Still scoreless in Athlone

**adamd164** · 09/03/2013, 7:21 PM

Cobh now 3-0 up. Definitely gonna surprise some people this year.

**gufc2000** · 09/03/2013, 7:41 PM

Cobh 4-0 up at half time

**gufcfan** · 09/03/2013, 8:36 PM

Thought people who were putting Cobh down below Mervue and sometimes Franchise Devon were greatly over-estimating the two and underestimating Cobh themselves quite a bit.

It's only one game, but still.

A draw against Shams is always a decent result but its very early days for all the mutual backslapping going on.

Almost deserved a point out of it, but hard to condone us not turning up for the first half hour. Cagey enough stuff, thought Sligo controlled it well for the most part.
