Man, get over it!

Best of luck to Ger and all involved in Limerick 37( I refuse to call it L37). This City has a long and proud history in both Junior and Senior Soccer and its great that this will be carried on.

Congratulations and well done to everyone involved with Limerick 37 for doing tremendous work in such a short space of time to ensure that the long history of Limerick senior football remains. I hope the football people of Limerick can put aside their football differences and get behind Limerick 37 and help to build a club everyone can be proud of. Obtaining the licence just shows what can be done if people can see the big picture and focus on the long term gains that can be attained to the benefit of all football players and supporters.
Remember: UNITY IS STRENGTH!
