You have two points here:
1. Lack of support:
I believe that poor PR is the reason behind this. There is very little in the way of media coverage for the team. This is mainly due to the committee lacking a PR Manager, something which they are required to have under the upcoming licencing.
2. Price of Jerseys:
I think economics is at play here. Economies of scale dicate that the more of an item is sold, the less the cost of it's overheads, and unfortunately Man U jerseys slightly outsell Limerick jerseys.
Sure, hopefully you are coming to the games and buying jerseys. Try bringing a couple of friends to the game and hope they get hooked.
