maybe stick to or start another shannon thread - no disrespectOriginally Posted by abbeyvale
never said your club was backwards .. ye have the oldest club in shannon so ye must be doing something right.. new website is excellent / gear etc ... seen a lot worse pitches around limerick/ clare i am only saying ye always seem to have trouble holding onto players over the years .. bring them all through schoolboys level and then alot chose to leave !! after all the staggering work it must be difficult to see some of these players chose to leave ? but ye are not the only club with this problem.. it is a pity there is not a lot more players like urself around who show a bit of loyalty to their clubs. i have a couple of nephews currently playing with your schoolboys so i am not totally biased against shannon town and i hope you win league 1a or get promoted to preimer league to p**S off all your fans in limerick & also it would be great for football in shannonHas some one at Shannon Town done something to you?
your so negative...we are now attracting players to out club like we never had before...i personally have been with the club 20 years and in that time i have had my chances to leave and have come very close to it at times. But never did and i dont regret it. i won stuff at school boy and youth levels and also won the 1A a few years ago. if after this season and the leaps foreward my club have made that someone wants to go and sign for Park Rangers...get good luck and good riddence...it just angers me that people have this impression of shannon town as a backward club when we aren't, we are a foreward thinking club...ok we dont have the best pitch or dressing rooms but the effort that is going into bring kids up through the ranks is staggering....and the comittee is working on improving our dressing rooms and hopefully in time our new pitch can be a decent pitch..
right i need a strong drink.

My Goal Is To Deny Yours...
well ive never had an easy game against prospect or balla for that matter. but we have to believe we can get 9 but ya Star will be the toughest

Prospect away from home after playing the first two games in 3 days will be no easy game either.
abbeyvale you seem very concerned with Shannon Town, do you consider them your biggest threat for promotion???
Why do you think Im concerned about Shannon Town??? Because I asked Shannonman one question?
Shannonman
I reckon if your totally honest ye'd be more than happy with 7 pts from yer next 3 games, considering your opponents and days rest in between.
No because you seem to have made more comments and asked more questions about Shannon then any other team in the division. Not trying to have a go at you, was genuinely asking do you consider them the biggest threat in the league? Its obvious they have a tough week ahead and I personally think if they did get 7 points it would be an excellent 7 points.
i don't think shannon town are that much of a threat, not from what i've seen of them. they are strong at home on that awful pitch but whether they can do the business away from home is questionable. time will tell. mungret and star for me
"It's not about winning, it's taking people apart that counts"
Dont really know who is the biggest threat tbh, especially considering all teams will drop silly points between now and the end of the season (just look at the Dines this morning being betean 3-0 away to Croom), so its still a bit early.

Deserved their win no excuse's we were shocking. Its gonna be long week if we continue to play like that
My Goal Is To Deny Yours...
any report from the dines game??
started poorly. Gave away a bad goal after 5mins....had a few chances to get it back but were sloppy and didn't take them. Second half we came back into it but got caught at the other end...it'd been comin for a few weeks. We'd started thinking turning up for games was enough. Some sketchy refereeing decisions but no real complaints because we deserved nothin
above table updated now.
what was the pitch like out there? it looked shocking in the photos posted here a few weeks ago
rock hard and very uneven
some of the pitches in the league are just unacceptable!!
any report from the mungret game? was it as easy as the scoreline suggests? 3 nil seems like a comprehensive and comfortable win?
It wasn't a great game, mungret took a very early lead. At 1-0, herbertstown had a few chances but didn't convert them. Mungret went 2-0 up about 10 minutes into the second half and then closed out the game. We scored our third on the stroke of full time.
I was surprised with the other results, summerville and star are right back in contention for promotion now
