its in santry, so id head northbound on the m50 take the ballymun exit, go through the village and take a left at dcu, go straight down that road for a while and you wont be far away, its directly across from santry garda station
in fairness what did u expect.the hoops have fallen again despite what many perceived as a decent draw albeit away,just like last season.looks like a lot put into the team this season,some big signings but now out of mjc and fai.
Pike remind me of Liverpool in a way .Great clubs who at the start of the season promise much ,excellent clubs with great teams and top new signings,top early season form.Team an supporters full of confidence.But some how with all the promise they show an talent they have it goes pear shaped for what ever reason.
I just cant figure them out..Ok they won the Mjc last year an more often or not are pushin for league honours each year and every few years do something to let us know that their still a heavy weight and credit to them but to go out they way they have,I should be surprised.But I'm not.
Pike should be the top side in limerick but the likes of Ballananty an Regional seem to be becoming the new powerhouses from the point of people lookin at Limerick football that are to be avoided at all cost in the open rounds of the Fai/Mjc.Is their a shift in power on the horizon.Junior football is fickle and players move on,thats a simple fact that will never change.
Players are easily read,if they join a club that has a habbit of chokin on big game day,they will join thinking that maybe they will be the ones to turn it round.This only last's for a while before the start to think is it worth it anymore.They get their game week in week out until their just goin through the paces and eventually decide to go.
Pike last year had an excellent side who were full of confidence ,both players an management.From the post that are up on both the Limerick thread an the Fai ,Mjc thread some of those players seem to be just going through the paces.I have no doubt that Pike will rise again to fight next year but it seems as if their is just somtin not right .Somthin's wrong and even I can see that from the outside lookin in.

Their's only one Dinny Pop's.
thanks Limfan but is the game not on saturday as they are a saturday side?
cheers for the directions.thats a great help
hey, lisselton rovers here, there seems to be a few lads talking about us on ere lately. so, what are crumlin like? how are they playing this year? we believe their pitch is astro, has any of you played there before?
game on Sunday, 5.00, in Pearse Park.
we have a very young team, most of our team, bar 1 or 2 are under 24.
Littleman is there really need to post that in what 3 threads now?? Seriously like...
ye will beat crumlin lisselton as they are only the clubs second team;LSL on a saturday would not be the greatest standard and a lot of their lads would be cup tied as they are still in the intermediate and that would be the clubs priority;if you dont win handy you would have no chance of winning the overall comp,would predict 2/3 goal margin for ye
are games on/off this weekend with the weather?

Hes only looking for a reaction,pay no attention
I was at the game in Donegal,thought Pike didnt play to there usual high standards,deserved to lose on the day i felt
Had a nice few bob on them to win the FAI,thought this was there year
Unlucky boys maybe next year yeah
I suppose the league will have to do as compensation
on paper pike are a top side was at the match in Donegal very poor performance I cannot blame the managment they already have won a MJC in their short time in charge....the only thing that annoyed me was after the game I could only see real disappointment on the faces of 4 / 5 players...as a life long supporter this rubbed salt in the wound...maybe that is where the problem lies...best of luck to balla I would really love to see ye get a result in dublin..and because of other people posting on behalf of pike i do actually mean that..keep the flag flying.
You can get better than 3/1 about Killester, dont be afraid to look elsewhere that rosey cheeks power

The choice is yours...............
interesting point about the managment,if some players didn,t seem hurt by the defeat is that not a reflection on the person who manages them ....they train them ,select them etc....this was by all accounts a very strong pike squad,possibly their strongest in years,if that is the case its up to the manager to get the very best out of them....clearly this season so far their manager has not.lets hope balla do the business.
