That was an excellent display by Cork last night
Bohs really missing Lorcanl Fitzgerald and Pender at full back.
Jake Kelly looks a good signing.Wearin needs to get match fit ASAP..
Quietly confident that the double digit point difference between us and sixth place will be a low single digit by the end of the season.
He started 20 games straight for Rovers last year and had a good run for Pats this year until Buckley finally gave up on him. I think he could do well for Dundalk as Kenny has a habit of getting the absolute most out of mediocre players, but his poor performances for Rovers and Pats aren't down to a lack of opportunities - his lack of opportunities are down to poor play.Originally Posted by El-Pietro
I don't know - to get 15 goals in your first season in the Premier with a mid-table side (UCD) shows he has something about him.
Surprised he didn't do better at Rovers at Pat's tbh - maybe it's just a case of he works better with some managers.
Interesting to see if he gets a run partnering McMillan up front - the two of them got 47 league goals in two seasons together at UCD.
He's obviously a decent striker but lots of players have scored lots of goals despite not being top-level. He's just not a natural finisher, but if the team is set up to serve him he seems to do well. After his first year at Rovers, I was convinced he'd be a great player, but he's just never taken his chances.
Well Stephen Kenny managed him at Rovers so he must have seen something he feels he can work with. He took his chance well last night and he is nowhere near fit, also played a slide-rule ball to put Towell in on goal only for it to be put wide. Hoban would hardly have been considered top scorer potential when signed from Mervue and we were quite underwhelmed by the signing and now we are struggling to replace his goals. Hopefully the three strikers will get up to speed quickly and McMillan turn endeavour in to goals.
Well that's how managers make their reputations, I suppose. A lot of people would have given up on Quigley before he went to Dundalk too, even though he's more obviously talented than Kilduff.
Sligo need a manager ASAP they are falling to pieces they are down two nil , if they lose this they could go into freefall.
The rofl-copter has lift-off with destination set firmly to Sligo. Would love a Limerick survival and they're now only 7 points off pulling away from the bottom.
Manager's ceased the nepotism and the new signings obviously showing potential. It's ON!
3-2, it ain't over yet.
3-2 FT.
Sligo are in big trouble.
You've got no fans.
I don't give a **** about Harps
Im just saying that from what i have seen this season, ye dont play ball and are overly physical alot of the time. But its working for ye and fair play for that.
Athlone Town AFC 1887-2017
Sounds a strangely familiar criticism of a team doing well, now who could that be?
Finn Harps?
https://kesslereffect.bandcamp.com/album/kepler - New music. It's not that bad.
No I meant us, long balls and all that
The way we are playing at present I have a good mind to put money on Cockhill Celtic to beat us in the FAI Cup. I am that confident! We are shocking at present. Stephen Rice imo is finished as a footballer. Also Pat Sullivan. All they do is mouth off and get bookings! even the 07 side had more passion that these lot! I am really dreading Dundalk next week I really fancy Dundalk to beat the goals they scored against Bray this season! I wouldnt be surprised to see Dundalk beating us 9-0. We are lucky that Sligo Rovers and Limerick are so crap at present. COUSINS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Heard an interesting stat tonight for anyone who thinks Limerick are doomed.
Since we returned to the Markets Field we have never failed to win a home game that took place after the mid season break.
Here is a more important stat, first league win for a Limerick team at Markets Field since the 25th March 1984 in a 3-2 win against St. Patrick's Athletic. Sligo's last league win at Markets Field was in October 1978! I make that now 1,697 league goals scored at the venue.Heard an interesting stat tonight for anyone who thinks Limerick are doomed.

Managers are overrated, just look at Bray!
