Parks first 11
I gave my top 5 last week, but here's 11 that caught my eye so far,Originally Posted by messi
Based on games with Park, Cals, Coonagh, Knockainey, Holycross, and Bruff..
1: Not really seen a great keeper yet, but of what I have I'll say Knockainey's No 1.
2: Coonagh's no nonsense right back.
3: Bruff's whippit left full.
4+5: One lad from Coonagh, Clifton Carey from Cals.
6: Paul Scholes Park
7: Knockainey quick lad
8: Bruffs sitting midfielder, very good footballer
9: Jef Mc Cals
10: Coonagh number 9 very fast
11: Coonagh big central mid..
Parks first 11
"Whippet" left full is Pappy Kelly. He's actually more of an attacking left mid, which gives you some idea of how the GAA messes things up for Bruff.
Sitting mid-fielder would probably be Andy O'Neill.
Good choices, I approve

....by the way PikeB, who is the lad up front for with you's (no.11 I think) with the unusual hairstyle? Anyways I thought he was pretty good 'specially toward the end of the match.

Sounds a bit like Barry Lipper. Good lad, clever player. Just needs a bit of work on his finishing!!!!! He was the one who hit the post from 6 yards out....
lads how many bodies do ye get roughly at training
we have alot of lads who do shift work and alot with young kids so we get 7-8 most nights
We're getting between 10 on a bad night, and 13 on a good. Lowest we got around 8 but we train with the Premier team so there's always work to do. On a good night we'll warm up and train with them, then have our own game of ball. It works out well for us. Most of our lads can't get a girlfriend let alone have kids, so we haven't that problem ye have!!!
thats not bad Pike b,hows Blackie doing after the injury
He's training hard in fairness, but only got his first start last Sunday against Bruff, and was one of our best performers on the day. He played centre mid and did a lot of hard graft, although he's not the most silky skilled player!!!
Jaffa reckons he's a pain in his back from carrying Blackie, but Blackie says the same about him...

Well I'm sure that they are good players bud, but as we haven't played ye yet, it's a bit hard for me to say!!
if you ask me its too early to say as most clubs have only 5-6 games played
Thats what happens when ye have the likes of "Peter Beardsley look alikes" playing with yeWe're getting between 10 on a bad night, and 13 on a good.

They both must have very strong backsHe's training hard in fairness, but only got his first start last Sunday against Bruff, and was one of our best performers on the day. He played centre mid and did a lot of hard graft, although he's not the most silky skilled player!!!

Ralph judge would definitely get a call from you because he scored 3 or 4 goals,i cant remember,against you 2 seasons ago and was being marked by yer superstar left full james o donnell.
May I say in our first year in the Limerick League having been in the Clare League for the last 30 years the standard of football is miles ahead I repeat miles but the admin is miles behind I repeat miles behind!!
"You'll not see nothing like the Shelbourne team"
Anye see the cals murroe game today? what did you think
what was the score in that game
"It's not about winning, it's taking people apart that counts"
Shelbourne will you stop. Fair enough Limerick soccer is ahead of Clare soccer but it is definately not miles ahead that's for sure. Just because ye've had a bad start to the 1B season doesn't mean that it's because the standard is miles higher.
Anyway besides all that, in my opinion none of the Shannon teams should even be playing in the Limerick League, Shannon is in Clare not in Limerick but that's a different story
Why say it so?
Sure it was a grand ole team to play for....Sure it was a grand ole team to know..
Hail Hail!!
Only saying its a different story because shelbourne was talking about higher standards in limerick.Why say it so?
but since you asked i will...so you think that the Shannon teams belong in Limerick even though they're from County Clare? Its a bit stupid having the shannon teams playing in Limerick. Even stupider than galway playing in the Leinster Championship because its not as if Park and Shannon Town have no-one to compete with in Clare like Galway dont in Connaught. and its not like they needed a new challenge because it wasnt like they were dominating Clare soccer when they were there. That's my opinion but as i say i don't know their reasons for going to Limerick
