Reidy ready to break mould

PRIOR to 2002, it was easy for Limerick football supporters to recall the good days, simply because there were so few of them!

The highlights package was a fairly short affair. For instance, in the 1988 championship in Askeaton, they seriously troubled a Cork team on the verge of All-Ireland success before eventually losing by three points.

Three years later, they reached their first Munster final since 1965. Again, they came agonisingly close to making the breakthrough against a Kerry team on the decline after the golden years.
