so if all these players come back to junior soccer for the senior soccer off season. When the senior season starts again in March or whenever they'll all sign back with them again. Sounds like a bad thing for the junior teams signing these players to me.
Saw the view yesterday and I have to say it is genuinely the least talented and worst Fairview team I have seen in about 15+ years. Apart from Purcell none of the starting eleven would have got on the team of the last 10-12 years. They are young fellas but not even talented young fellas like Wembley for example . They are brutal up front and slow at the back and overall a very small and not very physical team and in the winter could really suffer. I say this as I guy just watching a match
good news for fairview.in fairness the view have been stripped of any half decent player they have had over the last 3 to 4 years for league of ireland to limk 37. what team wouldnt suffer after losing kelliher,buckley,colbert,barrett,rossi,heffernan,h arrington.if they get these players back and with zubie and higgins after going back they have a great chance of winning the league.
Stripped? It happens to most quality Junior sides!! Cant blame these players for having ambition!! You say it as if they were robbed!! These L37 players are only playing with the junior clubs during the off-season and will be going back to L37 when the season starts in March. It was in the contract of the three players (Colbert, Barrett and Kelleher) who came back from Shamrock Rovers. Its a bid to get them fully fit for next season as they didnt get much football up in Dublin![]()

Fairview were brutal on Sunday but i wouldnt judge them on that,you could be right about them suffering in the winter as they are very light.As regards the team 10-12 years ago in my opinion there aint many players in town never mind fairview that would have gotten on that team.
Pike v Aisling
Carew v Regional
Two big games on this Sunday
Think Pike will just edge Aisling and Carew and Regional a draw, the other game on is Corbally v Fairview, think this will be a draw also
id much prefer to be winning fai medals than being up in a "quality" outfit like limerick37 anyway.travelling the length and breath of the country and prob getting crap money for it.half the junior teams in town would give them a run for there money.you would swear they were down in cork city.
Why all this anti Limerick 37 postings, they are representing the city and should be getting just rewards and incentives for doing so?
can anybody from pike rovers please shed a bit of light on the following for me.ive been told in recent times that pa moloney got 400euro to sign for pike,davy wall got 2000euro and derek mc carthy got 1000euro last season.pike people on this site will probably say that they are there because of ambition and because of pike being one of the best teams in the country and have a great chance of winning an fai (even though i havent seen many of them up the pike club in recent years).bit strange that pa went back up there considering he had a bad fall out 2years ago with the hoops.i bet the more established players up in pike musnt be 2 impressed if this is the case unless of course they all get paid also.hartnett,enright,mc garry are hardly playing for nothing if these players are getting paid.
Players get travel expenses thats it. Pa had a fall out with the pike commitee and Mick Noonan and rightly so. Pa played illegally with another team it was his own fault. Mick Noonan is gone now and a new committee. He enjoyed it up there the last time he was there, boro are gone to that dogs so he went back to Pike. Pike wouldn't pay players end of story if they did they'd lose everyone who wasn't getting paid simple as that. I know people might find it hard to understand why players might want to join a very well run club and team, play in big matches and challenge for the league every year. Excellent training facilities and superb pitch to play on every week. Yes I can see how it's hard to understand alright.
mate with all respect I'm not, and I hope no one else from pike will, get into this conversation again.
this has been said about pike every couple of years for decades at this stage.
Big players (or fellas who fancy themselves as big players) will go to big clubs, end of story.
