Allen happy as Limerick set up showdown with Banner
And to manager John Allen’s delight, the Shannonsiders achieved their target with a 3-22 to 0-17 win that sets up a showdown with Clare and leaves the Saffrons in the second grade for another season.
Said Allen: “After our poor start to the league, this was a chance to put things right and, by half-time, the game was really over. Now we have a chance to get back into Division 1A. It was good to give a good performance — it means a lot to us. As a spectacle it may not have been a great game but we dictated all over the field.
