Limerick footballers unchanged for Sligo Allianz League visit

It means Newcastlewest man Iain Corbett captains the side once more, with a number of positional switches being made for this tie.

Limerick football boss Jimmy Lee has named an unchanged starting XV as his side host Sligo in the Allianz Football League on Sunday.

The action is set to kick off at 2pm in Mick Neville Park, with the Shannonsiders in search of their first victory of the 2024 league campaign.

Having handed out two league debuts in the damaging loss to Down, Lee has opted to persist with the same starting side, hoping to find some consistency.

It means Newcastlewest man Iain Corbett captains the side once more, with a number of positional switches being made for this tie.

Aaron O’Sullivan is set to start in goal while Jim Liston, Sean O’Dea and Brian O’Sullivan complete the full-backline in front of him.

Colm McSweeney starts as centre-back, with Paul Maher and Barry Coleman either side of him. Tommy Childs and Tommy Griffin continue their midfield partnership.

Iain Corbett is named alongside Cathal Downes and Cillian Fahy in the half-forward line, while Peter Nash and Eoin Hurley complete a full-forward line that sees Robbie Childs moved to 14.
