Not really getting the panic about the off season. Still early days, and it's usually if you sign someone you have to cough up the signing on fee at that time, so there's reasons to leave it nearer pre-season.
As you can tell, I'm not really prepared to join in the negativity at this stage, but Sully has to be first choice upfront.
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
The market in Ireland really is sh1te this year, very few realistic players you can think of improving the side so you'd have to imagine TC is looking to England, however unless he finds a raft of players over there it's hard to see us replacing all the players we've lost. It may be early days but I'm worried.
Afaik pre season starts in January at least I think someone told me that so if true you would want most of the starting 11 sorted out before then
I would reckon very very few LOI players get signing on fees in the last 5 years at Limerick I know of 3 that did and they were massive signings at the times they got em.Originally Posted by Macy

I think Smithers picked me because of my motivational skills.
Everyone says they have to work a lot harder when I'm around.
We need another 5 or 6 in looking at that squad. No idea where they'll come from however.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
It might only be January but times running out to bring in enough quality players. Very worried about season ahead.
Well if Cousins really is looking in the UK that transfer window only opened today so lets wait and see before the doom and gloom starts as always there will be plenty of time for that as the season goes on
That's true actually hopefully some news in the coming days
We are still short a quality Keeper. It wont be a good season if Skinner is No.1 all season.
The truth fears no questions...
It's only when the tide goes out that you learn who's been swimming naked
Don't remind us 😭
In advanced talks with a few players in England. Between 3 and 6 players have been mentioned so we'll probably sign 1!!!
Are any of them any addition?
You'd imagine they are going to be something Similar to Phillip Gannon and while he showed class towards the end of the season it took him several games to settle and that would worry me if we are going to bring in several players from England as a slow start could be a killer
The majority of them are young Irish lads that are either been released early or been sent on loan. Josh was one that was mentioned but that was ruled out from our side as he's had a few injury problems lately.
I hear Tom Morris may be on his way back to us.
