    Harps 1-2 Waterford. Longford game not really important.

    Well they are mathematically out of it now, also an indicator of the level of their collapse.

    We'll win up there next weekend and win the league...

    Going to be a serious trip up to Longford next week. Two buses already on to go, a 16 seater and 50 seater plus the driving up support. We could be looking at winning the league and a pitch invasion next Saturday. It's all set up to be a cracking night in Longford.

    I thought we played well on friday. We created a quite a few really good chances, and on another day we would have scored a few of them. Cian Collins was unlucky on two occasions in particular.
    This was a big improvement on many matches against defensive teams, where we dominated possession but allowed most of our attacks to break down at the edge of the box. Our attacks on friday were more incisive.
    Having said that, we had a few hairy moments at the back (and one in particular that Athlone should definitely have scored from) mostly of our own making.
    I'm looking forward to saturday's trip to Flancare Park. Hopefully the celebrations will start then.

    Have heard another bus heading up now + possibly a Limerick FC Academy Family bus also so that makes it 4 buses.

    Longford despite doing pretty well this season have had poor attendance's. We may outnumber them on Saturday night.

    Adding the buses together alone you are only talking around 90-100 people heading up so unless there is a lot driving we are looking at probably around 120-150 max.

    Well I'm in a car with 5 heading up Saturday, and i reckon there'll be a lot of full cars heading up.

    A lot of people weary of buses after Monaghan last year(But we won't get into that) also from what I've head quite a few of the buses are leaving quiet early, so not ideal for those of us who are working on Saturday.

    Ya I usually drive myself due to buses leaving during working hours. The fact its a Saturday though and a once off a group of us over behind the dugouts decided we'd get a small bus up.

    what are the various outcomes - if we win the next match is that it, we will get promoted, if we dont win the next match, are we in a position where we have to win the next match/last match to get promotion?

    If we win the match then no matter what happens in the Waterford game we can't be caught. If Waterford win and we draw or lose then it is down to the final night with us playing Wexford Youths at home and Waterford away to Athlone Town.

    Match is tomorrow. I wouldn't fancy a loss, our record at home in big games is ten times worse then our away record in big games.

    Hopefully we can get all three tomorrow and finish this league off.

    Live commentary on live95fm.

    Mentioned this morning it's up to 5 buses going.

    If we win the league tomorrow bight it will be next Friday we lift the trophy anyway so hopefully a big crowd would come out for that.

    I will be missing the match tomorrow but next Friday I will be at the Ireland vs Germany match and will be back home in Limerick for Limerick FCs last match of the year, hopefully to see Limerick win the league!
    I dont expect Ireland will beat Germany, but I do expect Limerick to do the business and top the league!

    Good luck to the lads tomorrow night.

    Passive follower, been to Jackman Park a few times over the last few years but delighted for the team. Big step up though and I hope they can stay up for a couple of years so that they can get chance of building on it and maybe even targeting winning the Premier League.
