Leinster Senior Cup

**outspoken** · 09/03/2016, 9:52 PM

Someone knows something anyway, Wexford tweeted to say we got them

**Longfordian** · 11/03/2016, 6:19 PM

Yeah the LFA emailed us and Wexford with our fixture anyway.

**littlebray** · 11/03/2016, 10:04 PM

What are they doing - mailing individual pairings out to the two clubs involved? Do they know what a website is for (home page currently has January fixture lists ... more up to date than usual)?

Anyone care to share their news here?

No news from any of the other clubs left in the draw. Surely they would have been emailed as well. No wonder clubs don't take this competition seriously when the organisation is so bad.

**Longfordian** · 12/03/2016, 8:31 PM

No idea, I know we got an email with the proposed date and time of our game and that was it.

Is the Leinster FA the same people that run the Leinster Senior League?

**Martinho II** · 13/03/2016, 6:33 PM

Well that explains it then.

A couple of weeks ago they tried to stop a website from publishing fixtures because they had a deal with the herald.
Apparently you can't copyright fixtures so they were made look mugs.

They are an amateur minowistic sham of an organisation so it's no surprise there is no official draw details.

They've blocked me on Twitter the gimps! Can't think why.

Fairly sure you can - it's why very few sites will carry advance fixtures for the English leagues (apart from the immediately upcoming game). You've to pay to reproduce the full fixture list.

Maybe that doesn't apply in Ireland though.

Nope the copyright of publishing of fixtures was outlawed in a European court.

Yeah sure be grand the draw will be in the herald on Tuesday probably. 🙄

UCD v Bluebell is another q/final as per Twitter.

At at this rate the 3rd quarter final pairings will be announced next week. This competition is the best kept secret

That leaves Dundalk, Bohs, Bray, Shamrock Rovers/Collinstown

It’s not that much of a mystery Bray Head. The Bohs site has that their quarter final is home to Dundalk. Date TBC

**Seagull** · 23/03/2016, 9:46 AM

Collinstown v Bray according to Wanderers Facebook page.

**pineapple stu** · 23/03/2016, 2:15 PM

So what have we got?

Wexford v Longford - or is it Longford v Wexford?
UCD v Bluebell
Collinstown v Bray
Dundalk v Bohs - or is it Bohs v Dundalk?

This is like the 19th century FA Cup draws, which were published in the paper and clubs were expected to spot the draw and get on with it.

**seand** · 23/03/2016, 2:46 PM

Bohs v Dundalk on Mon 4 April

If I'm not wrong, is the Malone Cup just a preseason competition between the same two teams?
