Limerick FC 2014

banjobongo · 08-04-2014 8:38am

slightly off topic...
It can be very cold in Thomond Park and a nice warm bag of chips would be great at half time, I used to enjoy getting a bag of chips from the takeaway van at Jackman Park, but in Thomond Park the only hot food available are burgers which I think they zap in a microwave and by all accounts are horrible. Cant get chips anywhere, am I right or am I just looking in the wrong place?

and back on topic, we are now 2nd last on the LOI table but we do have a game in hand as our match v Cork last night was postponed after the recent Munster rugby match....this time last year where were we on the table relative to now, are we much further back?

Limerick's results at the corresponding change of last season:
0-0 v Cork, 2-2 v Drogheda, 3-1 v UCD, 1-2 v Sligo, 0-1 v St Pats

That's five points versus the three we have now, but if memory serves me correctly we were top half after those opening five games in 2013. It's far tighter in the upper end of the table now than 12 months ago, when Sligo had 4-5 points over the team in 2nd.

Disappointed to be 11th, of course, but fully confident of getting four points from the upcoming Bohs and Athlone gamest that will pull us away a bit from the bottom two.

Hes not better than Williams there though.

I'm personally not so sure. I don't think Williams is that great, and it's been ages since Tracy has played left-back. I think Tracy is much better at picking up spaces to whip in crosses from deep. It's not as if Williams is a bullet.

Going to Bohs on Friday, get to see Dalymount, hopefully we can pick up 3 points. Hopefully Curran will be ready for a start, we're moving closer and closer to our strongest line-up. Any word on Galbraith?

Green Giant · 09-04-2014 9:51am

Galbraith not ready yet, no return date set but apparently making good progress. Ditto Mick Leahy

Its not but he moves a lot better than Tracy. Also Tracy crosses well but does not defend as well as Williams.

Home fixture against Cork City rescheduled for Tuesday 20 May, kick-off 7.45

I see they are not too worried about people trying to go to the Derry game. 3 o'clock of a Monday.

I would have thought 3 on a bank holiday Monday would suit people better than 7.45 to go to a game in Derry

Silly me I have just noticed which Monday it is. I was really wondering about the timing of it.

Fireball07 · 12-04-2014 1:08am

Super win up at Bohs tonight, great to get our first win of the season, and I would say it was well-deserved.

Far from a perfect performance but we had the better chances, could have scored more and the goal we did get was top class. Bohs were awful, absolutely shocking- no gameplan particularly in the 2nd half. In the first half, at least they tried to isolate our full-backs, Beattie's pace was causing Williams bother and they had him on a yellow card. But in the 2nd half, he got a bit more support and Sammy Oji absolutely dominated physically.

Ryan didn't have many saves to make but was strong in the air, the defence was reasonably solid, Oji majestic.

I thought Prince was very impressive, looks like a proper footballer. Likes the ball on the ground, played to feet and will only get better imo. Having a player who likes to pass is better than what we've had. Desperately unlucky with his dipping half-volley and should have scored in the 2nd, should have put his foot through it.

Duggan wasn't at his best, but still worrying to see him injured. Tracy quiet again. Hughes was good, covered a lot of ground.

Gaffney mixed good with bad, stunning finish for the goal and when it really mattered, he held the ball up well and used it sensibly. Curran- great to have his physicality, thought the yellow against him was ridiculous.

We were the better team, good Limerick crowd up there, great goal- we were at the perfect angle to see it, the one place he could put it to score. Just a fantastic finish. Bohs were very very bad though, surprised how they could be so poor. Worrying thing is that both Duggan and Curran seemed to be limping when we saw them at Junction 14.

Soulcrew09 · 13-04-2014 12:39am

It was Currans first start so hopefully he was just stiff, have to say Gaffney had a little limp aswell in J14. The 3 points is a monkey off our backs so hopefully we can kick on from here.

Next Friday (Good Friday) we have Athlone at home (ko 7.45pm) FULL BAR SERVICE (yes you read that right) is available in the Dugout Bar from 4pm. Entry is with match ticket only.

Iang87 · 16-04-2014 2:55pm

They pulled the plug on the full bar.

They'll open thomond park at 6 and you can only get drinks in the stalls behind the stands and they'll reopen for 20 minutes at half time.

Doesnt make much sense given how much they plugged having a full bar to pull it on two days notice. I can only assume someone objected

Probably got the licence in the hopes of drawing a crowd. Must have been objected to. Still, I'm just hoping for fine weather and a few goals for LFC.

Jofspring · 17-04-2014 1:30pm

Well there will still be a full bar service in the ground as in you can buy alcohol its just they can't use the Dugout bar. I suppose they probably looked at it and realised it would be very hard to police making sure everyone going in and out of the dugout had a match ticket. I'd say the Gardai had a few issues with how many people may show up looking to just have a few pints in the dugout bar and head away again also. Still if someone wants to go to the match and have a few pints the facility is still there to do so.

Soulcrew09 · 18-04-2014 11:53am

Full bar service inside the ground from 6. Chief Super put a stop the Dugout plan on Tues leaving a lot of people pissed off but what can you do?

Fireball07 · 18-04-2014 2:41pm

Must win tonight against Athlone.

Good to beat Rockmount with a sub team, good to see Ross Mann scoring twice, and excellent to see Mick Leahy playing.

Jofspring · 18-04-2014 3:39pm

Ya delighted to see Leahy getting 90 mins in. Would like to see him on the bench tonight and if possible get a bit of a run.

McManus is supposed to have scored a wonder goal too.

Fireball07 · 18-04-2014 10:36pm

Good win tonight, bit nervier than it should have been in the end, but 3 points is 3 points. I thought we were easily the better team- played some nice football at times, scored 2 goals, hit the post, missed a penalty, and had numerous other chances. But we went to sleep at a few vital times and it could have been costly.

Seems to be a new formation two... a definite 2 up front and a diamond-shape in midfield, with Prince at the tip, Tracy as the most defensive, Duggan left, and Hughes right. I thought it worked well generally in an attacking sense but when we got hit on the counter, we got exposed as Tracy was the only midfielder defending and he's not the most mobile on the turn. But going forward, we looked better. Set-piece delivery was top class. Curran was brilliant before he went off, holding up the ball excellently. Really hope it's not serious, we'll need him for Derry.

Gaffney was poor, Duggan was excellent, Hughes did his normal solid job, Prince looks like a proper footballer but needs to get on the ball more, Tracy as better, Folan and Oji were very strong, Williams was decent. McManus wasn't as effective as Curran but a fantastic finish for the goal. Mann showed real pace to win the penalty, but apparently there was no contact, I couldn't see. Terrible attempt anyway.

When we took Prince off, we went to a 4-5-1 again and even against 10 men, we looked poorer and they could have snatched one late one. But overall, great win, and we're up to 8th, level with 7th. Duggan was my MotM.

TheBeast17 · 18-04-2014 11:27pm

Very fair assessment there. Only thing I would add is the sooner we can get out of Thomond Park the better.

Vision of Disorder · 19-04-2014 10:25am

I'd agree with most of that too though I think Duggan started slowly enough and drifted in and out a little (great pass for the penalty though). Shane Tracy was improved but gave a lot of ball away needlessly at times and I don't think Gaffney was as poor as you do. Thought it was his usual mix of good moments and nonsense, his touch seems careless at times. Thought Barry Ryan made good saves when he needed to, Jason Hughes did the most work in the middle, Shaun Kelly was solid.

Tam's strike was excellent.

Of course markets field is ideal, and seems to be great progress being made at it.

Its too big absolutely no atmosphere whatsoever. Over a thousand lastnight and it may aswell be 100. I think the Markets Field is far from ideal but it will be a hell of a lot better than Thomond.

Maire2009 · 20-04-2014 11:42am

Prince really impressed me on Friday night - likes to get involved in play and is comfortable on the ball. He could become a vocal point in the team if he keeps performances like that coming.

Some finish by Tam as well.

Fireball07 · 21-04-2014 2:25pm

Anyone know whether today's game will be on the radio.

Ross Mann is starting up front in place of Craig Curran, who is not even in the squad, his injury must be worse than I thought. Big blow, as he's been excellent in the last 2 games. A lot of faith to place in Ross though... let's hope he takes his chance with both hands.

Fireball07 · 21-04-2014 11:44pm

0-0 draw. Decent result, I guess.

Randomfriend · 22-04-2014 12:21am

Not a bad result, at least it keeps some sort of momentum going. 6th is the height of Limericks ambitions this year I'd say, so things are looking up now after the last few matches. Some tougher tests ahead thou.

Jofspring · 25-04-2014 1:55pm

Very tough one tonight against Sligo. Curran supposed to be out again tonight so I can't see us getting much out of it.

TheBeast17 · 25-04-2014 10:58pm

Rainsford is not a footballer.

Is it time for Taylor to start coming under pressure? The side doesn't seem to have moved on from the comfortable levels of last year.

Admittedly I'm out of the loop and maybe the loss of some key players reflects our position but the omens don't look good.

Jofspring · 25-04-2014 11:39pm

We are still struggling with injuries but the style and set up of play still seems to be the same and we don't look like we are up to much in many games. It's like we are over complicating everything. We had to work so hard tonight to create anything where as Sligo were only in first gear and still controlled the game. Taylor is under pressure because the main income for the club is home gates and the performances at home are causing them to plummet.

TheBeast17 · 26-04-2014 12:31am

This season feels like it has being going on forever already because of how dull and crap the style of play is.

A_Sober_Paddy · 26-04-2014 2:50pm

Fairly poor last night, but the worst was some of our shower with their cheering when Rainsford was taken off, his a young lad it's not on, but then mcgrath gets a chant. They both played poorly last night, more stupid carry on by idiots one of which throw a coin at a Sligo player too

More? What else have they done?

On the McGrath-Rainsford thing both played poorly one made an effort. Ridiculous to try and claim it was only from that section that Rainsford got stick by the way. I stand with the lads that did it not all of that group did I told them to shut up but there were others to the left of that group and behind that group having a right go at him too.

Fireball07 · 26-04-2014 6:37pm

Why did he change the formation again? I thought we had played fairly decently with 2 up front and the diamondy midfield.

The 4-3-3 doesn't work with those players, such a terrible team selection, you could tell what was going to happen. Taylor completely fcuked up... McManus, Prince, even Ross Man would have been better options than Rainsford and McGrath. I have been a Rainsford fan in the past but he isn't close to being a winger, hasn't a clue how to play the position. And McGrath doesn't look to be overly effective in that position either, despite trying hard.

Gaffney was excellent but I said before that he was going to be isolated up front and unable to do it all on his own, and I was right. Folan was a rock at the back tbf, Oji was good bar a few sloppy passes. But he's hard as fcuk and the Sligo attacking players seemed scared of clashing with him.

But we were outlclassed in midfield, the movement and strength of their players was too much for us, bar Hughes really. How was Duggan motm???? Players are too similar and Tracy can't be the deepest of the 4....

Williams was shocking for the first goal, woeful defending. Missed Kelly a bit too. And Ryan might have made a wondersave or two.

It was only one section who cheered when the board went up which was pitiful to be honest, he got a bit of stick from everyone, but the ironic cheers where bad form...Mcgrath was pretty poor, and still got a chant directed at him...both players are nowhere near good enough anyways

Fireball07 · 26-04-2014 8:16pm

I felt bad for Rainsford last night, I mean he had an absolute shocker, but some of the abuse was a bit OTT. Not going to help like.

I applauded him when he went off, but he should never have been playing in the first place. He's a good player when he gets the ball and runs directly at people, but he looked so hesitant and lost yesterday and kept running away from the ball.

He looks lost, I don't know if that's his fault or Stuarts to be honest, because we look so shapeless and clueless all over the field like we don't know what they have to do on the pitch

Jofspring · 26-04-2014 8:47pm

I was watching both Rainsford and McGrath closely and both had the same roles but just on opposite sides. McGrath seemed to have a far better grasp of his job than Rainsford without actually doing much better. It just looked like Rainsford didn't know whether he was supposed to go forward or backwards, when he needed to be out wide to add width he was pushed in field and when he needed to get tight to Gaffney (from long kicks etc..) he always seemed miles away. It was only in the few minutes before he came off that he it tighter to Gaffney for flick ons and the second ball. Felt bad for the lad he looked lost out there.

My main gripe last night was the amount of players that pulled out of tackles. There was a few 60/50 in a limerick players favour and they pulled out, it made life so much easier for Sligo and was frustrating to see. Taylor and the Limerick bench lost the rag a few times at players that pulled out of tackles/headers.

Thought if anyone of our players deserved motm it was Hughes.

It was only some that cheered and it was only from that section with the cheering you are right but from people not in that group I heard someone shout at him "You useless c**t" and another roar "You stupid ginger w***er" and that is only two of 7 or 8 thing I heard shouted at the lad I'd much rather an ironic cheer than that. Any of that kind of thing to a young lad is horrible though there was no need for it whatsoever.

Not that it really matters but the reason McGrath didn't get any stick is because he tried its not because he is a poor player those lads were having a go at Rainsford it was his lack of effort and poor attitude.

You are right about both players the people at the club keep going on about this whole promote from within thing and bringing through our own youth has anyone that has been brought up from 19s looked remotely good enough yet?

We had this same issue last season and I had the same conversation with you. There always seems to be an incident with them. After the second goal went in did 3 lads not try get onto the pitch no.

The rainsford thing was a disgrace he's not a winger and we all know that so dont abuse him when he doesn't perform there. Dont abuse huim anyway to be fair he's only a youngfella.

I'm not attacking you personally I'm just saying you were defending the same crowd last year and now here we are with another few incidents

Vision of Disorder · 28-04-2014 12:26pm

Shane Duggan's MOTM must have been a wedding present.

The cheering of Rainsford's substitution was pathetic, no call for it, no need for it. Sam Oji threw a filthy look at the morons behind it too so the players definitely heard it. There's a minority of the young, vocal support that haven't a clue. It's all sub 'Green St.' posturing, like when a few of them rushed the wall after the second Sligo goal. It's just empty posing, they stopped once they got there anyway to allow the stewards to usher them back while they hurled abuse at Greene for having the temerity to score against Limerick. Mindless.

Performance wasn't anything special but Sligo are getting back to form so I won't be too critical.

I don't think Cusack did much wrong, Williams was caught out badly for the first goal and no better than average after that. Folan was better than usual but made plenty of small errors too. His distribution was cack. Oji wasn't quite as solid as usual either. Nzuzi was terrible, he has ability but doesn't seem to have figured out how to play in any given position.

Hughes would have been my MOTM for us, did a lot of good work in both penalty boxes. Duggan drifted in an out and Tracy, while slightly more involved than has been traditional this season was still fairly anonymous.

Neither McGrath or Rainsford showed much, I don't think either of them know exactly what is expected of them. Gaffney was the usual mixture of sublime and ridiculous but he's left so isolated at times that it's hard to be too critical.

When will Prince and MacManus be started on a regular basis? They surely offer more than a couple of the incumbents?

No they ran down to abuse Greene who had gestured to them, stupid thing to do but that is what it was.

I will keep defending them too as these are nothing incidents people having a got at a player after he has scored against their team watch any game of football and you will see it. These lads are no angels but some of ye do love to blow it out of proportion. They are probably among the best behaved supporters in the league in all honesty just some people like to make things out to be way bigger then they are.

I'll point out people you stand with have done worse to players not excusing what was done to Rainsford but just to point out lads away from the vocal group are no angels themselves.

They stopped because they had no intention of ever going on the pitch and they ran down to abuse Greened because he gestured at them after he had scored, again not saying it wasn't stupid but once more someone trying to make it out to be something it wasn't.

It wasn't just from that section that Darragh got stick coming off either.

What am I making it out to be? I said it was mindless, you acknowledge indirectly above that it was stupid. Where's the difference?

I'm critical of the Rainsford incident, you say you're not excusing that. Not to put words in your mouth but I don't think you believe it was a reasoned, thought out reaction to the lad's substitution? Again... where is the difference?

If anything I think you're making the incident into more than it ever was by refusing to let it go. Something that would have been glossed over by now is being extended because you're critical of other people being critical of behaviour that you yourself acknowledge is open to criticism. I appreciate that you're doing this from a sense of loyalty and I have no difficulty in agreeing with you that the group that is being discussed are amongst the most devoted supporters the club has and that they create the most significant atmosphere in the ground. That does not mean that I (or anybody else) isn't allowed to be disgusted when a teenager gets jeered off the pitch by his own supporters for no valid reason.

You were making it out that they were trying to get on the pitch which imo is far more serious then just trying to have a go at a player.

You have every right to be disgusted I was disgusted and told the people that did it so. But what I don't accept is the singling out of just that group as others have already said he was abused by more than just that group as he went off why no mention of that? I'd much rather a bit of cheering than some of the things that were said by others that had nothing to do with that group of lads.

Apologies if I am over-reacting but it does seem at times like people are quicker to have a go if it is those lads and that includes the club itself.

I said (if not in so many words) that they were never going over the wall but were content just to jump about a bit in front of it (presumably, in my honest opinion, to convey to Aaron Greene just how lucky he was that the stewards were there to keep them away when neither fans or player really wanted the situation elevated).

Well I won't speak for anybody else there but for me personally I didn't hear any of the other individual abuse, presumably because it wasn't loud enough coming from one person to reach my ears. I doubt there was many people involved in what we're discussing now either (Six? Ten?) but it was loud enough that it was pretty clearly heard from where I was.

I said (if not in so many words) that they were never going over the wall but were content just to jump about a bit in front of it (presumably, in my honest opinion, to convey to Aaron Greene just how lucky he was that the stewards were there to keep them away when neither fans or player really wanted the situation elevated).

Well I won't speak for anybody else there but for me personally I didn't hear any of the other individual abuse, presumably because it wasn't loud enough coming from one person to reach my ears. I doubt there was many people involved in what we're discussing now either (Six? Ten?) but it was loud enough that it was pretty clearly heard from where I was.

Tbh having read your points and taking a step back I see I have reacted a bit stupidly. Taken the rightful complaints as a go at the group as a whole which it isn't from you. Personal feelings get in the way at times when talking about lads some of which I have known for years now.

Apologies for the needless argument.

Can I ask what the purpose of the fúck the OFC chant was about and why there was boos during half time when the announcer was talking about the official supporters club?

Think it's something to do with someone from that group not being allowed on the committee for the official supporters club but I've very much open for correction on that tho
