pike should have been out of site at half time ,same old story of not taking there chances but only had 1 goal at the break to show for it,carew equalised much to the delight of the balla contingent and then had ger ned sent off,sniffer then saw red for pike,gordon made a couple of great saves to keep carew in it but danis bokans got the winner with 4 mins left in et and then devlin saw red for carew,it was nice 2 see jackman evacuate at the final whistle

No way is Finnan going back to fairview as long as Eaon Heffernan is chairman.

Lads ,lets face it,is it not true that the only reason Limerick teams,namely Fairview are winning the FAI Junior these days is that there is no intermediate football in the area.The likes of Cherry Orchard,Usher Celtic ,St Francis,Malahide etc are no longer in the running is because if they have a "junior" team it is their second or third team that enters.Does anyone remember the standard of those Dublin teams??One year St Francis had a guy called Smyth playing left back against Balla,the year before he had played for Athlone in the European Cup against AC Milan!!!! Similarly the same drain is on Cork Junior football.

obviously the better players eventually leave the junior scene,it happens everywhere whether it be to intermediate or eircom league clubs.how many fairview players have left to play for limerick in recent years? i bet you could put together a fine team there.what i don't agree with is that the fai is easier to win now,i can't remember any team other than the view,winning it too often!

totally agree with u but it has changed,if there is big money involved in the eircom league these days ,and if there is any half decent player playing leinster junior league football he will more than likely go league of ireland,cherry orchard and st francis and even fairview would prob have held there own in the first division,there,s even talk that views best young players are going to limerick next year ,that wouldnt have happened 10 years ago also the bigger profile of the eircom league these days is alot higher

Cherry Orchard won 1 less time than Fairview in the past but now you never hear of them featuring because they have moved up a grade.THIS IS THE PROOF OF HOW IT IS EASIER TO WIN NOW,as their first teams,who dominated in the past are no longer in the competition,what you get now is their second team.
