I’m to return to association football tomorrow night after 8 years absence… I haven’t been able to make the few training sessions to date due to work but we have a friendly lined up tomorrow which I expect to be thrown into at some stage.
I’m gonna use this thread to encourage/ inspire all forumites to get back in touch with pursuits they love but have given up…
However, steel studs in this ground?? I suspect I better buy a set of rubber/nylon yolks?- Elvery’s will have them, right?
I will be plying my trade at the lofty heights of Division 4a* 
*Limerick District league only goes as far as 4b http://www.thefreekick.com/board/file:///C:\Users\ROBERT~1.HAR\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\01\clip_image002.png:oops:
Splendid news, best of luck pal
No biting.
Ah shite, from the thread title I thought this was going to be the glorious return of @ChocolateMice.
Get yourself moulded studs, today if possible, and get out and do a 10/15 minutes jog on them (on grass) before you throw yourself into a game. The ground is like concrete at the moment.
Don’t wear steel studs on this ground whatever you do.

Don’t. You’ll get badly hurt.
What crowd are you going playing with? I haven’t played in Limerick since the heady days of getting to 1B with Hyde Rangers.
I got a set of nylon yolks which are fine…went out on the green earlier and they worked a treat.
Shelbourne Rovers are the team.
Still looking, pal. Not gonna rush into anything. Gonna check out an Opel Astra next.
Don’t waste your time, kid. Move on from the Opel, next.
You’ve a very closed mind, Harry, mate. Opel is a solid German car and to be respected.
As Ireland’s Number One Supporter during the glory days of association football in the free statelet, there’s an enduring loyalty to Opel as a brand amongst consumers of a certain demographic.
Arnold O’Byrne > Bill Cullen
Did you have problems with your one, pal?
Would never buy an Opel. You’d be as well off with a 135 as an Opel.
No issue with my Opel Astra
so far… 
Should I flog it before it blows up guys?

Yes. @Mark Renton will take it off you for a few magic beans
whatever you buy will only get robbed the first time you play for Shelbourne anyway.
Do they play in the Park?
That’s a nice pitch.
