Match highlights now available on www.athlonetowntv.com
With regard to a few peoples over reaction to Ski's "sideline antics", embarrassing as it may be, its an embarassment I'm happy to live with compared to the alternative embarrassent of losing matches very other week.
Just look at our league position and tell me again you want him out. FFS get a grip, what do you think will hapen to us if we decide to change our manager now just cos we're a little embarrassed;
a) we suddenly go on an amazing unbeaten run and top the table
b) somehow manage to keep ahead of Harps and make the play-offs despite the unrest and uncertainty of a change of manager
c) free fall to lower mid-table as most people seem to expect of us anyway
d) any of the above, dont care really just like to have a bitch about something because theres too much of a good vibe going about and we have to keep things "real"
Feel free to say I told you so at the end of the season if Ski gets us no-where but until then show a bit of respect for what he as achieved so far.

What about Skee applying for the Athlone job last week Kev? Should we turn a blind eye to that as well? Just because he is getting something out of a talented squad doesn't make Arsene Wenger you know.
Skee McGee's Blur and White Army my arse, from now on it should just be Limerick's Blue and White Army

Is that true or rumour ? I've heard a lot of rumours the last few weeks.
If its true then it certainly alters my opinion of the man, but I stand by my comments regarding the sanity of wanting to change the manager now whatever the reasons behind it.
If its the case that Ski doesnt want to be here that will come across to the players and no doubt affect performances. I would speculate however that he is enjoying his job here but saw an opportunity arise to manage his home town team so he went for it (a proper kick in square in the stones to us if true) and now that it hasnt worked out its back to business, it now becomes a question of has he got over that distraction and is getting on with his job here.
As regards getting something out of a talented squad, we havent exactly had a talented squad up to now, with the notable exception of our back four (and of course Kevin Waters). So credit where its due.

Even before July though the squad was top half of the table quality at least, when you lok at the likes of Wexford, Kildare, Kilkenny and Mons than we have always been better than them, and we were as good as Shels, Athlone and Cobh from the start as well. It's one of the poorer First Divisions I can remember anyway. And from what I hear, Skee certainly went for the Athlone job, can't confirm it, but it's been as good as to me
thats spot on. i was behind the dug out and all.
maye ski was sent off for giving the devil horns after our third goal?
ski knows football. he has a voice and uses it. thats only 2 things that make him so much better than o connor.
sur he acts the ape but fcuk it i'm glad we have him. he roared at robbie k for not being selfish and taking a chance himself
the other night which is something i like to see/hear.
if hes not on a contract then its fully within his right to do an interview elsewhere. i'd be doing the same.

Doing a bit of testing for added features I am thinking of starting on my website for people who can't attend matches every week. Can people have a look at this and let me know if it streams ok also I want to conduct a bandwith test.
I know the quality isn't as good as usual but I just made the video quick for the purpose of testing. When I get it all up and running it will be a minimum of MPEG 2 quality
It is the complete first half of the Limerick vs Athlone Town game.
