There are always 'junior' sides in the draw. The Munster Junior Cup winners from last year (Leeside) and the winners of all the junior leagues (eg. Cork AUL - Grattan Utd) are always invited.

Waterford Crystal must have won in Waterford. These top junior sides are usually more than a match for all but a few of the 'senior' sides. Watch out for Clonmel Town as well.

The grading system between senior/junior needs to be looked at I think :confused:

[Green_Hoop]

From my understanding the 4 semi-finalists of the Munster Junior cup qualify for the Munster Senior cup. Along with the Winners of certain county premier junior leagues. Pike Rovers(league winners) and Ballananty(Munster Junior cup finalists) are competing from Limerick.

This might sound a silly question, but can you identify the Junior (MJL) from the Senior (MSL)teams above please, I know most, just curious.

Razor, any idea when?Jazz Weekend I think.


This might sound a silly question, but can you identify the Junior (MJL) from the Senior (MSL)teams above please, I know most, just curious.Most of the teams not from Cork would be classed as Junior cos they don't play in the MSL but in local leagues.
However their standard is easily that of the MSL. Leeside, Grattan & Newmarket I think are junior too.
So in the MSL Premier you'd have Mount, Dale, Ballincollig, Blarney, Everton and Hall.
In the MSL First Division are Leeds, Mayfield & Carrigaline with Glasheen & Casement in the MSL 2nd division.

[villager]

No real surprises in the cup over the weekend maybe Ballincollig being run so close was a surprise and Cobh beaten at home by the Waterford side i would say the Dale v Marys game was the tie of the round marys again proving they could be there abouts come the season end.

[limfan]

Neanagh 2-3 Lisselton Rovers

[Towelie]

Tough draw for Douglas Hall in the Intermediate cup and an even tougher draw in the munster senior cup!!
Im sure everyone at the Hall is looking forward to a crack off Leeside:D

[pass&move]

Looking forward to our game against Newmarket Celtic Saturday at O'Neill Park, anyone got any info on them?:confused::cool:

[Green_Hoop]

Everton 0-2 Pike

Pa Moloney and John Boyle on the mark for Pike in the first half against a Gale force wind. Pike seemed to easy up in the second half, Everton very poor to be honest.

[Towelie]

Well done to Pike and the rest of the junior teams hopefully Leeside can join ye in the next round(Or at least hopefully we dont get spanked!!).Ballynanty at home for the winner is as tough as any team from the senior league.

Played yesterday - Douglas Hall 1 Ballynanty Rovers 0. Mark Murphy scored the only goal.

[Footballer]

Just heard today that Avondale have been thrown out of the MSC.

The illegal/not illegal player who played vs Douglas Hall in the intermediate cup was now in fact illegal for a MSC match also. Munster Senior league have officially thrown out Avondale.
This seems to be a bit of a funny one. Our local league found the same player was illegal for a MSC while the FAI did not for an intermediate cup match. (Different rules for different cups……)
Anyhow, this was just something which was said to me and was confirmed by an Avondale player.

Probably best for all that the Dale haven't got any further as this topic would be debated for the season.

Maybe the player in question was not signed in time fo the munster senior cup game against marys the week before the intermediate cup game. Is there any rule in the fai rule book that only 23 players can be signed? What about the Ulster and Leinster leagues? Do they have the 23 player rule? Should the same rule apply to all senior leagues not just munster?

[footiefan77]

HE was registered 14 days before the intermediate cup game but not the MSC match the week before. Simple as that. Thought ye could have worked that one out for yourselves!!! The 23 man squad is something the MSL have come up with off their own backs and was not put through the FAI so they dont want to know about it!! Hope this clears things up and puts the matter to bed!

Another absolute classic from the MFA, the player was ineligible for Avondales cup match with St Marys, so instead of now arranging St Marys to play Carrigaline in the next round they just move Carrigaline straight on through. :confused:
If it wasn't the MFA i nearly wouldn't have believed it. :rolleyes:

That is really unfair. So basically it is St.Marys and avondale who get punished for avondales mistake. That is really fooking stupid if you ask me. Im sure carrigaline would have no problem playing marys. That is typical of the brain level of the people who run football in cork.:mad:

[Clifford]

just wondering does anyone know what happened between rockmount and lissleton in the cup as carrig are playing the winners thanks to dale being thrown out:p
would have liked to have played avondale or mary's do to be honest!!!


They never showed up last Sunday, claimed they were never told. :rolleyes:

Not refixed as of yet.

Booooooooo Avondale, naughty naughty naughty.

The Clare League have the Newmarket Celtic v Clonmel Town game down for this Sunday anyway but for some reason also have Celtic down for a Provisional League fixture too

cork had majority of possesion but based on chances we could have easily won by more might not have been a very strong cork team but it is a great result for us as were only a junior club.would fancy us to make the final

[oscar]

had a feeling Pike would win shame the same can't be said about Holly:p

[Clifford]

Good win for the Pike, should be a stroll in the semi for them, neither Rockmount or Mayfield are any good at all. I'd rest the first team in anticipation of Clonmel in the final if I were yee....

[oscar]

they have 2 first teams the swines:mad:
