My point is there's not much interest from neutrals in tomorrow's game. The same can't be said for recent finals like Derry - Bohs, Derry - Pat's and Cork - Drogheda. I'd say the figure for people watching on TV will be horrendous, it might even be lower than the attendance..

I know what you mean HS. But i think it'll be a decent game. Both teams play good football. (well, at least attempt it anyway)

Sligo 3 v 1

I was a lot more confident in 1994 maybe cause I was younger and we were on a rollercoaster back then . If O'Grady was playing we would be certs tomorrow but given he is missing and Fingal have had a few extra games and should be a lot sharpper than us I think it will go to the wire i am hoping for a 1 nil with Fingal running out of steam in the last 20mins they will be quick out of the blocks and we need to hold them back at the start.

I'm a neutral and I'm interested. I like Sligo and Paul Cook. Still can't see why SF were let into the league. No history - no fans - too many Dublin teams already. Reason enough to be interested and hope Sligo win.

... Having said that, Fingal there on merit. So actually think they may win.

**Riddickcule** · 21/11/2009, 7:20 PM

Not much IQ involved to play Gaah, thats the way i see it, bogging the ball down the other end, thats all it is, as for hurling....

**blue til i die** · 21/11/2009, 7:57 PM

have a feeling fingal will sneak it, 2-1.

**LOI_Fanatic** · 21/11/2009, 8:01 PM

anyone no if there will be tickets onsale outside the ground tomorrow?

the FAI site says they were only onsale at the Shamrock Rovers Megastore untill 6pm today!

**Dillonman** · 21/11/2009, 8:02 PM

I think it will be very close, maybe 1-0 to SLigo or 2-1 to Sligo, can also see this maybe going to pens with Sligo to win!

Todays tabloids were a disgrace with the coverage of the Fai Cup.. Its the worst coverage of the Fai Cup final in well over ten years.. Whatever happened to the cup final pullouts like our cup final five long years ago?shame on them!

**Captain2007** · 21/11/2009, 8:19 PM

Sligo 2-0 Raf with a couple.

Sounds like shels

I think that the Fingal team really fancy their chances, fancy them a little too much but I put down the result over 2 ties V Shams as an aberration, Shams lost concentration as they have on many other big occasions this year. I think we have them them, they wont be able to cope when we go at them.
