that is absolute rubbish, he is as good a left back as i have seen around the country, definitly the best in limerick which is one of the strongest leagues in the country, he is one of the better players in a decent regional side that finished 3rd in the league last year, and on top of that he is a nice fella and im delighted for him.

Agree 100%. Great player and sound man. Captained regional from the time they started in 2A. Hope he makes the final squad.

i thought there were two 1a players in the squad.maybe the ot manager has seen some of your games and anyway does he really need two left backs in his squad.i was at the last ot game v clare,. there were four left sided players that i know of in that squad. ...mcgarry,sheehan,wong and brock..there could be more.

Gerry Smith hasnt a clue,he strolled into Jackman Park last week on hes high horse and watched 90 minutes of football....Wouldnt u think he would take a visit to "VIEW" and watch the best team in town play football for ninety minutes.....Oh sorry i forgot the man has no ambition.......Sack Him

Isn't it better than seeing some jippo from Dublin being picked in his place!!

agreed! i'm not taking a dig at mark he's a sound guy and a v decent player..i was taking a dig at
the system that picks the players for the squad....like you said "better to
see a limerick lad getting a chance".

whats gone wrong with carew park:

**Green_Hoop** · 27/01/2008, 10:56 PM

Pike Rovers 3- Granville 0

Bit of a shambles of a match, on my count there was 6 yellows and 2 reds.Ref booked the same play twice and didn't realise it was his second yellow,so 10 minutes later he realises and tries to show him a red card,which causes a riot with the granville players as the player it appeared refused to leave the pitch...so the ref leaves the player on the pitch and plays on...Luckily the second player red card'd actually left the pitch for his 2 yellows..

Otherwise a neat performance from Pike,2 from Hartnett and a missed Penalty,can't at this point recall who the 3rd scorer was..

Nothing wrong with Carew park. A good team is always a good team
They will take points off loads of teams They have plenty of excellent players
Summerville are also a good team with some very good players
Lets see what happens. Welcome back Turk :

Nothing wrong with Carew Park. Beaten 5-0 by summerville and you say theres nothing wrong!.6-0 against star if I remember correctly

**Monster** · 28/01/2008, 9:02 AM

Fairview are starting to look very strong again,i think they are gonna be a major force again in the next 2/3 years.

**widow** · 28/01/2008, 11:29 AM

why? ok they have a young side but are they really that good? I don't think they are to be honest. They won't win the league and are out of the munster junior and fai. people are just coming on here trying to put a positive spin on fairview all season so that they can try and attract players

**widow** · 28/01/2008, 11:50 AM

when is the transfer deadline? anyone know? it's usually the 1st of February but wasn't it put back a few weeks last year to accomodate Limerick 37? Think it was the 1st of March last year.

And with both Balla and Pike having 2 games on them I doubt they'll be on top for much longer..

There's something definitely wrong with Carew Park alright.
They have conceeded 16 goals in their last 3 league games, 6-1 v Wembley, 5-1 v Star & now 5-0 v Summerville, and you say there is nothing wrong????
