I think we beat Fingal in a pre-season friendly at home this year and I wasn't too impressed with them. I honestly don't have a clue about Waterford but, at home, I'd be confident we could beat them.

    If we're drawn away, I wouldn't be confident of getting through.
    No you didnt, it was 0-0 in a poor game .

    Cheers Oriel.

    We won it first in 1983 when we beat Bohs 2 - 1 and again as you said in 1994 when we beat Derry 1 - 0. Gerry Carr scored the winner and he is of course Paul Cook's assistant. A few omens there hopefully.

    Not meaning to be biased here but if anyone deserves it, tis us. Cork away, Derry at home & Bohs away and we're still in it...it'd be typical of us now to go and lose to a First Div team or Bray in the semi.
    Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.

    Hoping for a Waterford-Fingal final with Waterford winning it. The more matches they have to play the better.

    We only win it if we beat a Cork team en-route which we have done this year , also helps if there is a bit of snow on top on Ben Bulben which is possible considering the final is in November , a home draw in the semis is vital as any of the teams left are capable of beating the others in a one off game.

    Can't believe this. Waterford in League Cup Final and the FAI Cup semi final while playing in the First Division? very good job done by Henderson.

    Sligo unfortunately are probably the strongest team left, though I wouldn't bet against the Franchise making the final.

    I predict a Semi-Final pairing of:

    Sligo v Bray
    Franchise v Waterford

    Both home teams to win 2-1, then Sligo win the final in Tallaght 2-0.

    Would have to be Sligo for me. They deserve to win it after beating Cork City, Derry and Bohs. But who knows if any more shocks like last night are still instore.

    As opposed to an unfair advantage by spending money they don't have, sold land twice to gain, or that they've borrowed off of a 'mystery' donor....?

    I reckon Fingal will win it....

    And it won't do anything for their fanbase....That's just deluded.

    Why?

    Whoever wins it will beat either us ,Silgo, Waterford or Fingal and good luck to them, No particular team "(deservedly)" is in the semi finals, they all are.

    Or one of the other teams beat them as there is very litle between the sides left in.

    Bray V Sligo

    For a team fighting for the first division W/fords crowds are just dire so for this reason I think maybe a Bray V Sligo final would be a more attractive finale.
