    France we're the 2nd best we could've hoped for I think. Will be close enough, hopefully can snatch one. Or, as my mate said, he hopes the French-being French-will surrender immediately:D

    Also, Jermaine Beckford, thank you!

    Its going nowhere :)
    When yee have both a manager and a 30-33 player panel you will be doing well. Yee'll just manage to stay in league division 1 you'll lose to Tipperary n the munster semi, then beat whoever in the qualifiers and then it depends on your draw :D
    Thats your season in a nutshell, unless theres a strike :P

    Waterford on the other hand.. We're going far this year :pac:

    Now in fairness (this is really bad but) I figures out our minor, under 21, intermediate and senior tems all lost our to the eventual winners :) That is nothing to be ashamed of!
    And we could/should have beaten the clare under 21's... In the first 15mins there was goal chances that should have been taken and Shanahan was on injections (for an injury lol) so we wernt at our best.

    However I garuntee you our senior team will be in the Munster final this year again :) Ill even go as far to say they'll be in the AI semis.

    Oh football who honestly follows that properly! :pac:

    But football and hurling are awesome sports.

    I don't get why people don't like them.

    Ok then.

    So Deise, you gonna be heading to any league games soon? :)
    It does start in february after all :D
    Who do you think will get relegated?
    I'll be honest, not looking good for us if we stay the way we are. Although I haven't heard much about the county situation lately although McCarthy has stayed on due to a majority verdict in keeping him on during a county board meeting.

    Maybe Offaly though. *prays*

    peter stringer is a legend..but i don't think he's good enough anymore..sorry

    *crosses fingers*

    I have to say I'd be worried for yee if you dont get your act together with McCarthy.. But I think Offaly will really struggle too, so I'd say Offaly will go back down.

    And yeh but he only stayed on by around 18 votes I think? Thats not great.. Tbh I think if they cant get the backing of players yee're in a right muck of things coz it will end up you playing with mainly intermediate/underage or Justin will have to walk. I'd feel bad if he had to leave another county again, I really think he could have brought Limerick up!!

    ye were screwed over by kerry last year.
    Imagine if ye beat them. Feckin' kerry goalie saving that penalty at the end was sickening.
    Connacht title, maybe? :)
    I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a munster football title this year.
    Last year against cork in the munster final = one of the worst days ever!

    Well it won't be Dublin. We're going places. We'll show Limerick how not to waste a generation of of underage talent.

    o god i'm still not over the kerry game.
    it would have been the best sporting moment of my life if we won!
    i felt so sorry for david kelly :(
    eh we will have to beat both galway and mayo if we just want to get into the final..but il still have hope!
    i wish limerick won that day aswell..im a sucker for an underdog! :p


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,081 ✭✭✭peabutler


    Yeah let's talk about a 47 year old Evander Holyfield going toe to toe with a 41 Francois Botha in front of 70,000 Ugandans on January 16th.

    Awww thats a horrible draw!! Its like poor Limerick in hurling. They have to play the winners of Cork/Tipp to get into the final not a chance! :pac:

    We've gotten soft draws the last fews years I must say. Clare for this year, last year Limerick, the year before Clare and the winner played Limerick.. But we dont need to speak of '08's Munster game Lol :P

    jese that is a bad draw for limerick..tipperary are going to be very hard bet (or cork if they manage to beat tipp then they should go far!)

    wasn't 08 the year waterford got into the all-ireland final?that was a good year!(well apart from the actual final match)
