Limerick GAA, Still Getting Knocked Down

1 Like

Which Na Piarsaigh lads will get shoe-horned into this godawful mess of a team and where? Iā€™ll go with Downes as an orthodox corner-forward and maybe Dowling at wing if Teege can find his phone-numberā€¦

Anyone hearing word of unrest in the camp & possible talks of a strike to remove management?

Are you bud

You have a good source down in the garage in Cashel yeahā€¦? :unamused:

No but Iā€™m hearing that Joe O Connor s&c is an awful monkey alltogether. Complete waste of space.

Incorrect. In fact, he is the only member of the current management the players want to keep. TJ lost the respect of the players a long time ago im afraid due to his fatal flaw of telling you one thing and doing the complete opposite.

You just donā€™t get it fella.

Oh I get it alright. Just doing my bit to get the right info out there. The PR wheels of Limerick GAA are already well and truly in motion in an attempt to play the blame game going on some of the stuff im hearing.

TJ is safe as houses with the County Board

Why is he so safe?

I thought I was the one who didnā€™t get it??!

Lets just say he is friends with all the right people

Heā€™s tight with Morrissey who, in turn, is tight with the financial backers. Not so sure if the rest of them have much time for him though.

Exactly. He is friends with all the right people. The others are irrelevant once the money supports him.

A push from the players is a different kettle of fish though. The only thing stopping that is that a lot of the same players did that in 2010 with Justin and they feel 1 Munster Title delivered since is scant justification for a second heave in 6 years. Plus the fact TJ is not an outsider, he is one of our own. Is the stomach there for that? They need to be brave now and do the dirty stuff that needs to be done. The supporters will back them.

No, he is a complete monkey. Talks the talk but apart from when Clare won the all ireland in those few months he has never had a team fit for hurling. Clare lads were also stuck to the ground in '14. He is a total monkey.

Donā€™t mind that, it was a poor prod at kevs usual response to all things S&C.
I have no knowledge of the internal workings of the lmk machinery, however much I enjoy it.

I believe Morrissey is fairly isolated nowadays after his failed nobbling of Spikeā€™s reappointment?

In the CB yes he is. But he still retains the good favour of the boys who pay for everything. The rest of the CB boys wonā€™t go against the wishes of the financiers

+1. Still though, must be great to have a multi million euro backer you can blame everything on.

And the referee. Donā€™t forget the referee.

Was Kev saying this shite somewhere??

Anyway, the players think he is top class and so did the Clare players before them. He left Clare because Davey would not heed his advice, which bore fruit in 2014, and his stipulation for taking the role with Limerick was that when it came to player welfare/preparation/rest etc. it would be his call.
