Now thereâs a man thatâs talking my kind of language.
I just want Glasagusban to admit that Tom was a better Limerick manager than Cregan.Tom wasnât as good a player for Limerick as Cregan was but he was the better manager.
.
o_O
Eamon Cregan won the All Ireland, Tom Ryan didnât. case closed.
Puke, would you ever fuck off with this shit.
i wish this dumb fuck was an alter ego of someone on here. unfortunately its not. easiest the biggest simpleton on the internet.
Have we run out of Tom Ryan anecdotes ??
Henry should be along any minute with a unlimited heartbreak cut and paste

Youâd miss runt around the place
Tom has family in West Tipp. All round good guy.
Eamo leads the minors to glory.
No no no no no.That was with Offaly.What Cregan did with Offaly has nothing to do with his time as Limerick manager.Here is what Tom Ryan won as Limerick manager.
2 Munster Championships
2 All Ireland Final Appearnces
1 League Title which was won in his final game as manager
As for Eamonn Cregan this what he achieved when he was in charge of Limerick.
1 Losing Munster Final Appearance.
He also dismantled a very good Limerick team.
In other words he won nothing.So there Tom Ryan was a better Limerick manager than Eamonn Cregan.Like it or lump it those are the facts of the situation.
:D:pint:
Yes thatâs true but had nothing to do with his time as manager of the senior team.
Are you the same man that was trolling on my aussie rules thread over on that PROC site?o_O
Yes i think we have actually.
[SIZE=13px][FONT=verdana]Im not looking for conspiracy theories or anything but i wouldnât be a fool.Jimmy Hartigan had asked me would i take over the Limerick under 21 team in 1993.I think it might have been the spring of that year.I said that i would come back to him.After asking me to become under 21 manager they never actually contacted me anymore from that point.They hadnât the courtesy to say you are not getting it,were after giving it to someone else.Goodbye good luck and fuck off.I knew that when Hartigan went back to Gerry Bennis bang that was the end of me.And they gave it to Canon Willie Fitzmaurice instead.He didnât want me there anyway.I donât know why.I doubt it was club rivalry.But why are we winning fuck all?There was a paper trail here.And then he came to me that day inside at work and said you are a selector and donât do anything for six weeks until i come back from my holidays.Hadnât he fine holidays from the middle of july to the end of august.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=13px][FONT=verdana]At 8pm the contingent arrived from the county board.Mike Fitzgerald as treasurer,Jimmy Hartigan the secretary and the man who couldnât be there until the end of August Gerry Bennis was the first man in the door.We sat down at the end of the table.There were three of us at one side and the three of them were sitting across from us.Gerry said he had something to say and i said thatâs what you are here for.He said that Limerick hurling was in the doldrums and that we the new management were a disgrace in the eyes of the public.And bear in mind we had two members of the county board on our side of the table.Lenihan was chairman of the west board and a member of the county board,Kiely was on the county board since the fucking 1960âs.He was the main man munster council delegate and whatever else.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=13px][FONT=verdana]I said then sorry Gerry i donât mean to interrupt you at all and i understand your position but hold it a minute.Donât be bringing any legacies onto us about the past.(Iâd be a bold bastard like i wouldnât be for listening to someone like Gerry Bennis telling me what the story was).I said i donât disagree with you in your analysis of Limerick hurling but remember that it was your brother Phil who was in charge of them.Donât be bringing any legacies onto us here or onto me.I am not responsible for Limerick hurling the way it is up to this point.[/FONT][/SIZE]
[SIZE=13px][FONT=verdana]That was what you were dealing with from the word go.They were trying to force us out,intimidate us and hope we bow under the pressure.The intimidation that i in particular was subjected to,the other two fellas were oblivious to it and they were on the sidelines anyway.I wasnât there with them.So that was how my reign as manager started and that wasnât conductive to success.[/FONT][/SIZE]
Well Glasagusban do you want to throw in the towel and concede defeat?:D:cool: Itâs kind of pathetic that we have people who wouldnât know their Mick Mackeys from their Eamonn Cregans hoping on Glasagusbans anti Tom Ryan and anti me bandwagon just because they want to be in with the crowd!Anyone can swim with the tide at their back!
