LOI fixtures 12th October.

[White Horse]

Enjoyable game in the RSC between Dundalk and Waterford despite it being dead rubber.

There was a classy reception by all at Waterford to the new Champions. The fact that Waterford have qualified for Europe meant there was a celebratory feel to the entire stadium.

Once the game started, Waterford got stuck in. It was a surprisingly physical game and despite the pitch looking great, it took both sets of players some time to get used to the slippery surface. Waterford were neat and tidy in midfield, but lacked pace to trouble the Dundalk defence. They appeared to rely on long balls to Akinade, who pulled over to the wing to challenge Massey. Despite his massive height advantage, Akinade did very little.

The most fascinating part of the game for me was the head to head between McEleney and Hery. There appeared to be a personal duel between the two of them as to who could dribble past the other more times. Midfield battles in LOI normally involve physicality, but this was pure football. Watching those two was worth the long drive there and back.

Shout out to the Latvian refs in inchicore who reffed like it was the 80's again.

That was incredible stuff. A couple of times we hand our heads in our hands on the Camac thinking a red was incoming only for him not to even get a yellow. There was a moment with about 10 minutes to go where Rovers were hitting us on the break and Toner completely took Watts out on the halfway line in a textbook taking a yellow for the team challenge only for the ref to just play on. Whole ground was in fits.

thought they did well maybe let a bit too much go but allowed a bit of bite in an otherwise dull as dishwater end of season affair.

Yeah I thought they were great tbh . Maybe as was said could have pulled up a couple but it stopped a lot of the rolling around and falling down that goes on, players knew it wasn't going gv to get a free

Wouldnt suit the Cork ban on making any tackles though if the ref was letting any contact stuff happen!

Limerick fans have been on about this for some time. Supporters have had to remind them that there is even a game on. It is really shambolic stuff.

Limerick fans might recall that after the win at home to Waterford the social media went absolutely mental for a short period, about 5 posts a day!

Now we havent had a post in 5 days.

  For all the people who know nothing about what they are tweeting / talking about, I'm nothing to do with Limerick FC anymore, and I doubt any of you would like going without wages for the last 5 months (and it has been happening over the past 4 years). Had enough.

And @johngosullivan can confirm that I worked the first 9 months at Limerick without any cost to the club, through JobBridge.

i actually know Keith from the programme fair over the years and he was always friendly to me anytime I had seen him. I havent seen him in a few years since he moved to Limerick.
