This was the 11000th thread started on here.

Let's all pause for a moment to reflect in silence.

Care to guess how many were corrupted by Rovers v Bohs and in latter years Cork v Dundalk andthe odd smattering of a few others before and after...

Handful of Wexford players be part of the football course in Carlow IT and they train there from time to time.

Usually play a couple of preseason friendlies there. Fantastic facilities in Carlow IT

We beat UCC 6-2 in a friendly today. Darragh Rainsford among the scorers. Charlie Lyons, a defender from Preston and expected to join us, got some game time. Can't see much more about the game.

Harps play Limerick in Dublin and Galway in Sligo!! Wacky indeed!!

**oldyouth** · 10/01/2019, 7:20 AM

The pitch in Carlow is a good quality floodlit astro. Unfortunately, there is no seating and not even a railing around the pitch to lean on. You can get nice an close to the action though

**NeverFeltBetter** · 10/01/2019, 9:13 AM

Limerick playing three friendlies, all away, two against top tier opposition likely to stuff us and the other against the team that has relegated us twice in the last few years. I suppose it will be good prep for the First Division experience.

**Jd2793** · 11/01/2019, 6:01 PM

Any Limerick fans have any idea how many they'll have for tomorrow? would expect quite a few underage trialists? only 12 players signed.

We've 15 signed and three triallists.

**FrOsTy** · 12/01/2019, 12:45 PM

Out of interest. What 15 do Limerick have signed up?

**D24Saint** · 12/01/2019, 3:57 PM

Decent run out in Carlow with a 3-0 win, goals from Shaw, Drennan and a cracker from Trialist.

**Martinho II** · 12/01/2019, 4:49 PM

our squad for 2019 season is:

Goalkeepers
Lee Stacey
Uli Keller

Defenders
Shane Elworthy
Mick McDonnell
Tristan Noack Hofmann
Joe Manley
Kevin Knight
Anto Breslin
Adam Evans

Midfielders
Dean Zambra
Paul OConnor
Jamie Hollywood
Peter Hopkins
Aaron Dobbs
Carlton Ubaezuonu
Aodh Dervin

Strikers
Jamie Doyle
Dean Byrne
Karl Chambers
Karl Fitzsimons
Paddy OSullivan

**Martinho II** · 12/01/2019, 4:53 PM

Apologises if its in the wrong thread but heres our Ins:

Aaron Dobbs Wexford
Adam Evans Shels
Lee Stacey Shels
Anto Breslin Wolves
Carlton Ubaezuonu Dundalk
Kevin Knight Cabinteely
Joe Manley St Pats
Karl Fitzsimons Dundalk
Paul OConnor Bray Wanderers

OConnor is the standout signing for us. He has gone backwards since he left Sligo for Limerick. He has being in the top flight continously since 2010 so its a serious gamble but him and our no 2 Daire Doyle played together at Drogs so hopefully move will work out for him.
