Limerick v Kerry League

**the ox** · 16/04/2006, 12:32 PM

Does anyone know what date/time this game is on in the League Cup? Un/surprisingly the internet has not a plethora of information on the cup. I always try to coincide my trips home to the Emerald Isle with a Lims match.

Cheers

Until a date is finalised it night help to know that it is schedueld for a midweek game in the week of the 8th of May. The betting would be either Tuesday or Wednesday of that week.

From what I saw at Mounthawk Park last night it should prove a handy tie for Limerick. Though it does depend on what kind of a team NOC puts out. The standard of football on show was terrible from both teams, although Kilkenny played better as a unit and on the whole probably deserved better than a 2-0 defeat. Kerry's first goal was very controversial. From my vantage point I couldn't say for certain whether the ball crossed the line or not, but it didn't look like it did. There was no doubt about the second. A superb individual goal from Chris Kearns. He, along with other ex Limerick players Stephen O'Mahony and James Sugrue were best for Kerry but their standard has dropped a little from their Limerick days. I'll be looking forward to the match to see how the Kerry lads fare and I do hope that some support comes from the Kingdom for the match. No idea when exactly the match is on only what LFC in exile has said above.

Agree Kerry Blue with your analsyis. I was visiting de Folks for the Hols so went along as well. Lims will have no probs beating the Kerry League if they field a full strength side. Although from Stevie and Jame's reaction after the final whistle, the tie will not be a foregone conclusion.

A small matter of repaying some debts to our local Butcher comes to mind

Now when the game is on lets all be extra careful not to upset the poor dears like last time

**the ox** · 25/04/2006, 1:33 PM

Are we likely to play our strongest XI, well in Noel's opinion, in the game?

big game tomorrw lads feeling confident?

**tralee_dynamo** · 10/05/2006, 8:15 AM

We'll be well up for it tonight, we are definitely underdogs goin into the game but we did deservedly dispose of Kilkenny in the last round. Limerick away is a very tough draw but we will give it our best shot anyway!

I think it will be a close one tonight!

**joeSoap** · 10/05/2006, 8:53 AM

Yeah....like 3-0 close.....

**dutchie** · 10/05/2006, 9:12 AM

It could be an opportunity for the kerry players to see could they step up to this level,some might put themselves in the shop window hoping to impress noc.and playing league of ireland like other kerry players.I still believe we should be strong enough

**Brucie** · 10/05/2006, 11:32 AM

Lol

I tink that Stephen O'Mahony, Chris Kearns, Timmy Lynch, James Sugrue and David Conway have suffered already under the rule of NOC. The last thing they need is to impress that gom

. Maybe a bit of bite in this match as they will have a point to pruve to thier former manager.

Any news on the Lease ? or is de rumour true about Moving to de Markets field thats doing de round true

better off out of the ****HOLE that is Hogan park !!!

**tralee_dynamo** · 10/05/2006, 1:37 PM

All we hear about is ex-Limerick players playin for Kerry like the likes of Mahony,Sugrue etc, however Kerrys best player in my opinion is "Goosey" Rahilly (our centre-back), not to mention Mark Fitzgerald and David Hayes in centre-mids.

Whatever the result tonight, I bet the players mentioned will be the ones who stand out for us (that is if they decide to travel!!)

Should be a great game...

Good stuff, who played was it the 21s and a few first teamers? Guerin is one of our better players in the air all right.

No it was practically a full team. There were no 21s playing.

Guerin started on the right instead of Heffernan. McCarthey was up front instead of Rose.
