Limerick Division 1A 2006/07

Well they now have an 8 point lead at the top so thats going to be hard to pull back. Their defensive record speaks for itself....14 goals conceded in 14 games. That includes 8 goals in one freak game against Caherdavin so that means only 6 goals conceded in 13 games. They are also the divisions top scorers to along with that. Solid at the back, score goals and play good football...my bet for winners.

I'd agree they look solid all over, but they still have 7 league games left, agree completely with shannonman, league still anyones for the taking. admittedly, would like to be in summervilles position at present.

Summerville did not look that strong against Wembley earlier in the season, infact most summerville players admitted that wembley were stronger than them. They got a great result against cappamore, 7-0, but they lost 8-0 to caherdavin, who in my opinion are not good enough to finish in the top four of division 1a. fair enough they used a wedding as an excuse, but to concede 8 goals in one game is just embarrasing, especially against weaker opposition.

I fancy Summerville, wembley, bruff, shannon and mungret to be there or there abouts at the end of the season.

P.S. Park and Coonagh(due to manager) to go down

**inexile** · 19/02/2007, 2:57 PM

who is the coonagh manager?

in regards comments on summerville versus wembley and caherdavin i completely agree. wembely were far the better team even tho they just cant score enough goals, and summerville were embarrassing v caherdavin.

But i will say a lot has changed since then. that was last september. summerville have gone 10 games only conceding 2 or 3 goals and won each one fairly easy. they are still not playing too well, (ive only seen the coonagh home game recently and they played ok), but they never look like losing or even drawing games.

they do have to play all the top teams yet, but with everyone below them consistently dropping points along the way, i cant see summerville not getting promoted.

1 or two losses in succession might change things very quickly tho! must say every year div 1a is alway one of the most exciting promotion races. keeps it interesting.

totally agree i mean right now summerville look like the strongest team and without a doubt they are in the strongest position...that said a couple if losses and they will be right back with he rest of us... which would make it even more interesting!!

coonagh again were very sticky yesterday albeit i think we were fairly comfortable i cant remember our keeper makin a save!!!but the pitch was awful and we got three points.. nuff said!!!still along way to go yet still though lads but we are delighted with the posi we'r in its in our own hands, 5 wins and we'r up six and we win the league, but we've still got mungret, shannon, wembley, bruff, geraldines, caherdavin still to play too, so in fairness the league is by no means over yet.out of the teams below us i can see shannon makin a serious push, their quietly sticking the points onto the board, only a point behind wembley, makes for an interesting finish!!!

**scoobysham** · 20/02/2007, 12:29 PM

**KevB76** · 20/02/2007, 12:41 PM

If coonagh kept their players just for div. 1a matches instead of
illegally using them down in div. 3b trying to win a handy trophy
they might stay up.

Best one Ive heard in ages. You do know that anyone signed A can not play for the B team. If they were all signed B they wouldnt have enough A players for the divisional cup.

Sounds like another bitter caherdavin man to me.

Sour grapes me thinks.

No i`m not from caherconlish, but it is common knowledge that this is
happening on a regular basis and you know it too.
If it makes your trophy win easier carry on,as you have no conscience
about it.

I dont think they'll get relegated. It will be tough for them but i think they'll pick up a few wins. Park will go down and if i have to pick another team i would pick cappamore, after a promising start they are in free fall.

I was talking to a few of their players after christmas and they are really struggling for numbers. shame really, after the start they had. they have one red haired fella up front who was excellent the 3 times ive seen them play this season.

if there is anyone here who is involved with cappamore i would like to know what happened after such a promising start.
