I wonder what the odds would be on a bigger crowd tonight in the Leinster Cup semi than tomorrow evening in the less glamorous FAI cup semi?

€15 into Dalymount tonight I heard. Can't see them queuing up for that.....
Rovers through on penalties in front of a crowd of 1,394 in Dalymount.

Meaningless trophy obviously!
Shows why it's important to play games on one fixed night this proves why midweek games don't work in the loi fans liked their Friday/Saturday night games.Im positive that played on a Monday the crowd would have been halved.
When and where is the final?
About 6 months time in Mullingar.

Congrats. But did rovers give you a guard of honour?
No, but this puts added pressure on Bray to consider it now for Friday, this is treble winners now don't forget, League, Presidents Cup now LSC winners, will there even be room in the trophy cabinet for the FAI Cup I wonder.
Another dilemma was my thinking for over 2 mins in what order to list the trophies, I'm happy enough with Presidents first over LSC. Its tremendous excitement really.
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), first Irish club to win points in a group stage in Europe (2016).
Incredible but true - no GOH.
However, as a mark of respect to the champions, Pat Fenlon abandon his place in the dugout and sat in the stand.
Apart from sparing the eardrums of the 4th official and Asst Referee, this also meant that Vinny Perth had to make do with tangling with some other randomer on the Rovers bench

Congrats, Dundalk. Good to see both teams showcasing the next generation, in Rovers' case the next generation of players who'll be given no opportunities then shipped out to succeed at other teams. Anybody at the games comment on the standard of football?
I thought it was a fairly decent game. Dundalk put out a stronger line up than Rovers and it showed, particularly after about 30 minutes.
I was sitting a couple of rows away from Fenlon in the stand. I thought it was strange that he choose to sit in the stand. It sent out a strange message to his players.
Rovers lacked the pace to trouble Dundalk.
