can you please stop breaking quotes?

[Begrudger]

well done to balla flyin the flag for Limerick junior soccer. Went to see the St. Michaels v Lisselton game today St Michaels up 3-1 with 5 minutes to go looked a very strong physical side gotta be favourites now with a strong Lisselton team gone 6 genuine ex league of Ireland players on the team good luck to balla in the rest of the competition.

Also caught the summerville pike game today pike deserved to win but didn't look too strong themselves, Summerville strugled all over the pitch not a good game one big decision to be made and the ref didn't make it only a goal between the sides when smackers came out and cleaned out gareth kramer could have changed the whole outlook of the game. With that said i dont think summerville desrved anything out of the game

ya the new pitch will be the number one once its ready but we don't want to rush onto it and wreck it right off the bat..the long term plan is then to dig up the old pitch and put a respectable surface down then wall that one off and hopefully have something like the boro pike and fairview,,maybe four five years..

The second pitch would also mean the stranglers who are too cheap to pay the entrance fee would be forced to pay to see any matches. Charlie seemed very pleased with the grounds,really shaped up well now.

thats funny L37/limerick FC have really been drawwing the crowds for the past few seasons with inspiring football

Theres twice as many people in our SC alone than that was at that 'game' yesterday! no crowd, no atmosphere, wonky pitch, 90mins of bitching from the Pike players and a poor standard of football. Why in Gods name people think Keith Harnett is LOI standard il never know. Only thing that caught my eye was Connie Macs pink top!

Balla for the title.

[superhero]

Went to the Regional v Boro game, Boro looked really poor and with Alan Carroll going to L37 they will struggle for the remainder of the season they lack creativity and looked dangerous from set pieces only, Regional play decent football and could be dark horses for the title going to be an interesting few weeks ahead

[QUOTE=Green_Hoop;879636]Summerville 1 - Pike 4

Carew 1 - AA 1 A major slip up from AA judging on Carew's recent results.Gordon saved a penalty apparently.


Aisling had plenty of chances to win the game comfortably, does not help when the ref is blowing off side every time to ball goes forward, it was a complete joke. As for the pitch - another joke.

connie's pink top no atmosphere the game was over as soon as piked scored pike are just a better side simple as that...junior football we dont have a SC just guys who get up on a sunday morning to play football..

[Monkfish]

play football..

Il check out a Balla game next week and let you know.

agree with summerville man it's unfair to say summerville are a poor team on one performance..bad game this morning the ref was shocking,only one big
decision to make and he bottled it,Smackers should have gone off for kicking the summerville striker in the head while he was on his feet,stonewall peno
In fairness pike were the better side and deserved the win but AA looked a much better side than pike last week nothing special about pike at all

Definately agree with u there..It was a stonewall peno..He took the man out and got no where near the ball..Ref bottled it alright...He came over to our manager after the game and told him he got it wrong and should have sent him off and gave the peno..No good to us then..That could have put us 1-0 up..Might and i say might have have been a different game..A goal can insprire a team!! But yes pike did deserve the win..we gave away to much ball!!!

U are spot on there....Thats the idea alright..We will make a fortiune in years to come...Fine setup there ..Hoping to get the astro turf there as well...And then we will work on the pub..

[Lim till i die]

the fact that ye are comparing Limerick 37 to junior clubs around town says all you need to know about the current setup of senior football

Can you think of a better way of explaining to Junior football fans that the senior club are the biggest show in town??

I mean, for the purposes of the argument, it wouldn't be very useful to compare them to say Barcelona or Sheffield United now would it??

Definately agree with u there..It was a stonewall peno..He took the man out and got no where near the ball..Ref bottled it alright

Pike had a stonewall peno early in first half aswell and ref gave a free kick.

I mean normally I'd tell you these things balance out over the course of a season but this actually balanced out over the course of a game!

[gaiscíoch]

So let me get this straight

Despite the fact that Limerick s attendances average over 600, you refuse to follow them ever because you are upset by what no more than a dozen (2% of the average home crowd) people say on t'internet??

2% of the average crowd you sure about that???

[L37Ultra]

2% of the average crowd you sure about that???

Yes, if you put 12 over 600 and multiply by 100 you get 2%.

[Lim till i die]

2% of the average crowd you sure about that???

12/600 * 100/1 = 2%

Now what was the ludicrous point you were failing to make again?????

[manalishi]

Just reading trough these last few pages and its a load of ****e really.

I follow both grades but i have to say that i can understand why Junior followers have a dig at L37. Some l37 fans think that LOI first division is streets ahead of junior, from watching both grades all i can see is that the Senior players are more competitive than Junior Plays (but not all) and that Senior get more of a crowd. I watched games up in Jackman last year and tbh some of the "football" was total and utter crap to say the least. Sometimes it was like tennis with the ball going from defence to defence for most of the game. I also understand that L37 gave a walk over last week cos they didn't have enough players, That is Lowest standard of Junior you can get.
On the other hand i think its sad that Junior followers take the **** out of L37 when l37 was setup by Soccer Limerick "all grades of football in Limerick", so really they are only taking the **** out of themselves and eachother!!!.

Anyway.......

worst perfomance by summerville for as long as i remember, rubbish from minute 1 to 90!!h could hear the pike sideline laughin at us in the second, embarrasing now to say the least.

You say it looks like 1 from 3 at the "bottom" but aren't you forgetting that 2 teams go down, and we are only 3pts behind ye with a game in hand and also have to play ye, Granville, & Wembley at home!!!! You seem confident that Summerville are safe already!!!!

Trust me, its is any 2 from the bottom 4 to go down.

Graham was in goals, I dont think Robbie wants to play in goal.
