When you say assaulted, are we talking proper punch or headbutt sort of stuff?
He is badly concussed.

Think it was elbow to face and steward goes down against concrete wall, didn't see it but that's the word.
More rumours of match fixing involving Limerick on Twitter this evening,looks very bleak for them tbh
Irish by birth ,Harps by the grace of god.
Taken away in ambulance.
No time added at end either
Is this a suggestion they were looking to lose by x goals or BTTS and lose or more red cards ? Whatever and if any of this is right, they'd be better off leaving the LOI scene given the well documented problems within that club and come back re-formed (again) and in better shape.
Disappointing to hear this if true.

Limerick went from 10/1 pre match out to 28/1. Massive money put on Sligo -2.5 asian handicap amongst other bets. From what ive heard the game itself reflected the match betting with some terrible "defending" and the red cards.

What a mess. Nothing but bad news for months now, but this is something else. I hope the player in question has already been dismissed from the club, but knowing Limerick no one in any authority will be arsed. If the player even had a contract.
Don't know about match fixing but the second Limerick goal was strange. The ease in which their player was allowed to score was bizarre.
Also the sending off of Leverock looked a bad headbutt. As bad as I've seen on a pitch to be honest. I dont think it could have been faked unless the lads had some serious acting chops.
I missed the incident with the steward but all the wee hardmen throwing stuff onto the pitch and doing Danny Dyer impersonations was a tad embarrassing.
Be gas if both sides were trying to throw the game but Limerick were just more professional.
That was different. That was Vllaznia trying to throw the game, but Sligo were so bad they lost anyway.
One of my favourite LoI moments!

Read the following posts, oriel!
Soccer Republic have highlights up on their FB page. A lot of bad defending, but I wouldn't have thought anything dodgy if the betting patterns hadn't been mentioned. Looks like Hughes assaulted the steward while trying to recover a ball for a throw, but it's off camera.
