    Agreed see's it, the standard is very poor in 1A this season. Mungret won't win the league. An outside chance of promotion is a more realistic target.

    And last season and the season before.

    The standard in limerick in general is falling. The premier is not as strong as it once was either.

    I think your a bit unfair on these sides! How can you expect teams to get better when any half decent player is snapped up by a premier club even if they dont need the player. Just to make sure no-one else can get them...

    But in honesty do you think the standard has dropped in 1A for the last few seasons?

    I think the standard of limerick soccer has dropped overall. Not just at 1A but in the premier also.

    I know where your coming from gaidin, but I am of the opinion that the sport was never going stay so strong in town once rugby had arrived onto the scene. Would you agree?

    For the first time see's it, i agree with you..playing in the league you see it's not a patch on what it has been..even last year, i mean wembley last were a top class team and this year there is no one who stands out as being a class above the rest, everyone is beatable

    Well rugby was always there but yes I agree, the rise in popularity in rugby has had an effect on football in town.

    The point is that people have been saying for the last 2 or 3 years that the standard is dropping in limerick and unfortunatly I believe it is.

    IMO opinion when I was a player I found it hard to play on Sunday mornings, the misses likes to go out Saturday nights. Im sure most of the young lads like Saturday nights too. I dont know if this is possible but could the junior leagues be switched to a Saturday morning/afternoon. Then lads have Saturday night to themselves. I think a few of them would be a bit more interested in that. I think the players are there but not in the same quantity as before. Some sides get absolutely raped by the likes of Pike and Fairview(geraldines for eg).

    there's about 8 teams that are still in with a chance of winning it.but as everyone is sayin and I've said all along its a brutal division this year,last year wasn't great but there were two teams that stood out from the rest and they got promoted.
    The teams that came down are very bad, i don't know if they lost players or if they have he same squads as last year but If they had those players playin prem football last year then it doesn't say much for the standard up there either.
    As is mentioned as well I think the sunday mornin games are turnin a lot of good players off playing .

    How can you say that when pike and balla got to the munster final last year.

    Personally I think sunday morning kick offs at 10:30 is not helping anyone.

    If the games were a Sat morning kick off, then most players would go out on Fri night's,

    I think its a lack of interest from players in recent years more than anything else.

    I agree with that. A lot of people are just not interested anymore.

    And I think some of that is down to the early kick offs on sunday as Hoops 1967 said.

    the problem with junior soccer is that life has changed alot over the last 15 years nowadays young fellas of 22/23 are buying houses and working hard all week including saturdays,after a week of work and paying bills young fellas still like a night out and thats were soccer takes a back seat.15 years ago most people buying houses were in their 30s settling down,priorities have changed alot
