Player of the year

**lim abroad** · 12/10/2006, 7:04 PM

Now that the season is almost over who do you think deserves to get player of the year,i haven't been to any games so i can't really vote but judging by reports on here during the season it sounded like tommy,lester,paddy purcell had good seasons

Hmmmm... if Austin O'Neill had been here a bit longer I'd have made him my choice but over the course of the full season I would probably give my vote to *ponders long and hard* John Lestor. Gone of the boil somewhat of late but showed some real, real ability that's not common in this division. Brian Buckley deserves a mention in my opinion too and had he not left Anthony Wolfe's radical improvement is of note also.

lestor or buckley sounds fair to me.

Must be joking Lestor is so so lazy with no commitment to Limerick how can ye consider a guy who was suspended for a third of a season simply cause he cant keep his mouth shut .

As for Tommy a blind man could tell you he has been our most outstanding player by far

Brian is a fine player but is prone to sleep when things are not going well so thats why
Tommy has to get player of year he will fight to the end for us thank
God ! .

Think purcell should be in for a shout, was pretty solid at the back all season and was missed big time when he was out injured.

Barrett aswell has had a good season, what with playin in goals, midfield and up front. he tried his hardest in every postion he was asked to play.

Tommy Barrett gets it simply by virtue of having done well in midfield, up front and in goals

Honourable mentions to Johnny Lester, Chucka and in a surprise development Wolfie

Perhaps the right honurable long haired moderator of this forum could start a poll with the leading contenders. Perhaps also a biggest disappointment poll;

Player of the year nominations??

Tommy, Chucka, Wolfie, Paddy, Johnny Lester.

Disappointment of the season?

No promotion, no manager replacement, getting a hiding at home to Galway, no lease on the pitch.

Can we throw in beating Drogheda away in the cup only to have to play the next round with Tommy in goals thanks to the FAI

**joeSoap** · 17/10/2006, 9:11 AM

Absolutely....

Can we also throw in SLK not being able to score a penalty against Galway's reserve left midfielder during half time entertainment? Probably the only time I've ever backed the man and I get repaid with THAT
