I dont know who they signed. They look a different team then last year.
I don't know who they signed. But they look a different team then last year
Breska seem to start well but always seem to lose a few to hurling - that division looks hot enough - you'll need to be playing out to the end with your strongest team
Askeaton have new management alright and a huge squad of players signed (I'm sure they've a B team now as well) - They could be anything
Pallaskenry have got at least a couple lads down from Kildimo but there has been a lot of activity down there from what I've heard
1st few weeks will be interesting - hard to get a feeling from friendlies
Whats yer story Langerdan? Who is over ye this year and how are ye fixed?
Only saw ye once last year and ye seemed to have lost a lot of players. Did ye get anyone back?
We've got a couple young lads in this year - lost 3 lads back to the Askeaton revolution
We've seen a good lot roll up at other clubs alright the last few years, seems to just be the way it goes these days fellas nearly move twice a year! All you can do is drive on with the fellas who want to be playing here.
We have Blaine Collins back from Oz - still trying to tempt a few lads back into the fold but we've a squad to start the season and try to build from at least - see how the first few weeks pan out - Management has changed from last year, couple of the club stalwarts have picked up the reins, more of a committee than a manager!!
Jaysus that doesnt sound promising. Are ye even training or do ye just turn up and kick about on the astroturf, considering there is no manager.
Collins is a good man to have back, got ye a bag of goals a couple of years ago. Assuming he didnt come back from Australia fat.
I take it the prediction from the Observer that ye will win the league is not an accurate one then
Its fair to say my opinion on the man that makes the predictions is probably not for printing!
We've been training alright and had a pre season with Askeaton on Wednesday which went well - I'm told, I wasn't there - but I've literally no idea how that man comes to his conclusions - I suspect nor does he!!!!
Haha - Collins is looking alright - Oz sent him back in one piece
The management thing might not be ideal but there was attempts to get someone, we might have to start accepting C.V. from football manager!!
"I took Woking from the Conference to the Champions League in 6 seasons". Also heard Rathkeale & Rovers are battling it out to sign Suarez while he serves his ban... sure aren't they signing everyone else
!!
Can't wait for the league to kick off tomorrow, Broadford and Rathkeale the obvious main contenders but I think now that Shannonside have got rid of their manager from last season who caused them more harm then good and if the transfers Fanaticfan quoted are done deals surely will be in with a shout along with NCW Rovers who also seem to have made good signings, surely these four teams will be up their at the top. If teams like Ballingarry and Athea made good signings to add to their teams last year there is no reason why they can't challenge
Some scores iv heard. Dont know if they are full time or what.
Broadford 2-0 Athea
Newcastle 1-2 shannonside
Carrig 3-3 killeaney
Rathkeale 1-0 ballingarry
Saw Rathkeale v Ballingarry this morning..
Mikey Lyons the stand out player for Rathkeale.
Ballingarry have a number of players who look overweight and unfit.
Absolutely no pace in the team.
Surely Rathkeale have a better keeper than who was in goals this morning?
Pitch looked well.
Thought referee did a decent job aswell.
Game lacked quality overall.
Saw Pallaskenry play kildimo 2-2. Kildimo scored in the last minute of the game.
Hey lads, figured this might be a better place to ask than the Limerick FC forum. I was looking to get access to Jackman Park one of the days just to take a few photos. Does anyone have a contact email for those in charge of the League, or the stadium so I could ask them about it?
NCW 1 shannonside 2
Heard NCW had a very young team out. Not 1 player from last years starting 11. Must be a 1st in desmond league.
Rathkeale 1 ballingarry. 0 interesting report above
Carrig 4 killeaney 3
Broadford 2 athea 0

First Monday morning of the season - Website updated as well - hopefully a sign of things to come
oldman interested to hear about the Pallas-Kildimo game - talking to one of the Kildimo lads and he was saying that Pallas didn't seem to have too many new fellas??
Any reports from Division 2? Askeaton lost to Adare and Shountrade beaten by Breska - Division 2 could be tight as fook!
Saw the Ballingarry and Rathkeale game, was talking to someone at the game who said both teams were missing a lot of players, which reflected on the quality of the game. Interesting to see how NCW get on this year with what seems to be a young squad. Also Broadford vs NCW Rovers this weekend will be a very interesting game in my opinion
Oh rite sports fanatic , I thought ratkeale had almost signed a new starting 11, what was there line up? Some v interesting games already this winks an nxt fri, da pick of dem being brdf v rovers and ratkeale v sh side..
Johnny Mooney, Mikey Morrissey, Darren Jones, Alan O Shea, (don't know) Davey Lyons, Thomas Quilligan, Mikey Lyons, (don't know) Stephen Power and Barry Riordan. So basically that seems like the same team as last year with even a few missing, either all their new signings were not available or they have no new signings,
Alan o Shea and Thomas Quilligan wer suspended they weren't playin. Damien Quaid,Sean o Shea & mike Quilligan wer playin though. I asked tony fitzmorris who ref'd the game
