    Its great to see the free buses up and running but a bit disapointing to see that they are not venturing too far out from the city, I would have thought that they would target the big towns like Kilmallock and Newcastle West. Also they should have targeted towns where the players come from because people will always have an interest when someone they know is involved.

    ring the number! get onto nempton who has 3/4 and go from there.
    I can't see any point in contacting the number after I went to the bother to fill out the sheet listing the people interested in the buses, it seems clear that they are not interested in having buses running that far out. I guess we are on our own again SLK

    For the Clare bus they should consider stopping in Sixmilebridge, its a bit silly to bypass it when you are heading from Shannon to Cratloe.

    What u say is correct you did put names down on a supporters club sheet but as the SC has not met with the club since it has not been possible to give it to them. So again i suggest you ring the number and get a bus going!

    No bus from West Limerick is a bit of a joke - Newcastle West is only the fastest growing town in europe, why bother? There should be a bus going from Newcastle West - Rathkeale - Adare - Patrickswell. They're providing buses for the people that live closest to Limerick, yet none for those that live out in the county!? All you are going to achieve with that is people who are already attending games will start to avail of the buses, and leave their cars at home. The whole point of the buses should be to target new fans in big areas of the county that are untapped by the club at the moment. Not just provide buses for the fans we already have!

    There is a lot of people from NCW going to the Limerick games as it is, plus Keith Hartnett is from Rathkeale, Liam Costelloe is from Adare. If there was a bus put on and it was well advertised in secondary schools etc, there'd be no problem filling them. What else are people going to be doing on friday nights during the summer, especially teenagers interested in soccer, but no premiership to watch?

    I think Gael's message said something like:

    Theres is a note attached

    If u and a group would like a bus from any other town in the mid west,contact 086 1758184 for further info.

    Why not help the club by being the point man for West Limerick. Do a bit of work and if you believe the numbers are there the club appears only too happy to arrange buses.

    Well I can get you back as far as Bruff afterwards if it suits you. I know it's not the same as a bus but it'll do me for now!

    I live in Raheen and drive to the games straight after work, so I wouldn't be much help in that regard. I'm just saying that there should be a bus from West Limerick as there is large untapped support out there. It's the club PRO's job to do his homework and get the buses running, not mine!
