I can't find any mention of friendlies on our website. Any chance of a link? Any others apart from Mervuea and Salthill?

Ya Craig Burns that has supposedly already signed for Waterford which is a strange one.

No-one stood out very poor game. First game back and an awful pitch so to be expected. Axel had a goal wrongly disallowed for offside.

Ended 0-0.

**Dillonman** · 03/02/2013, 6:12 PM

was it liam burns that played with ye today by any chance lads?

**Jofspring** · 03/02/2013, 7:43 PM

Very strange from Burns, can only presume he hasn't signed officially yet with Waterford.

Glad to see a few of the younger lads getting a run for Taylor to see. 5 under 19's there and they still managed to beat Mervue 8-0 even though the games clashed which shows good depth in the under 19 team.

I see Taylor and Thomson were at the Limerick Junior Soccer 1912-2012 book launch. Thomson was interviewed by 95fm and said they want to have a close connection with the junior teams around town and hopefully give a hand around if needed to help progress football in Limerick as a whole.

I have to agree I'm afraid... That team will struggle. Craig Burns is a funny one for me, I never really rated him. He's fine coming attacking a ball, but I'd worry about him when it goes in behind. In my opinion, a quick centre half is needed because two players who struggle with a ball in behind is a recipe for disaster.
