EA Sports Cup Tuesday 11th: Cork City

[Jofspring]

Many going to head down to this? Its a week day but handy trip all the same. If Bolands injury isn't too bad it would be nice to see how he gets on against one of the supposed better teams in this division. Nice to see Robbie get a start in this too.

Going to go for Cork 0-1 Limerick.

[micls]

Hope to see a crowd down, can't see there being too many coming out from here.

Will ye play ye're strongest team? Dunne has said we'l start some fringe players, small squad and a lot of games lately. Be good to see if some of the younger lads are up to it.

Hopefully a good game anyway!

I have horrible memories of my last trip to Turners Cross (I think that was a League Cup match as well).
We played a 6-4-0 formation and still lost 3 nil despite a heroic performance form Jimmy Fyffe.
At least there was only about 160 people to witness it.

I'm looking forward to it this time round though.

292 actually :D Was on the same night as the CL semi final. Hopefully we can beat that by a few hundred this time. And hopefully the same score!

[KevB76]

You already embarrassed us at home, I cant see Scully allowing that to happen again. I'm predicting a 2 nil win for the Super Blues !

Scully named 6 or 7 that won't be playing so a reserve team id say.

[bluewhitearmy]

2 nil up at the moment Purcell and Kelliher.

[Boroman]

3 nil now kavanagh.looks like its nearly over brillint result well done limerick

[limunlim]

This was a very good win. i hope it will give a bit of confidence for when we go down in a few weeks, although that will be a different kettle of cats

[Jofspring]

Ya great result and performance tonight. Kelleher and Kavanagh hassled the Cork back four all the first half as they seemed to try play it out from the back every chance they got. Good header across the box that looped in for Purcell. Kellehers goal was some lovely link up play between himself and Kavanagh which he finished very well into the corner of the net. Cork made a few subs at the start of the second half and started to cause a bit more trouble with Limerick catching them on the break. Thought Kavanagh had messed up by not slotting the ball through for Kelly but he finished very well with a placed shot from outside the box which caught Devine flat footed. McGrath impressed me with a few nice touches when he came on.

Ryan, Kelly, Clinton, Purcell, Roche, Hughes, Balogh, Lyons, Judge, Kelleher, Kavanagh.

Subs Used: Tracey, White, McGrath.

[gspain]

Great performance. Robbie and Kav were different class.

The defence looked solid too in the 2nd half when pressed although Dave Ryan had hardly a save to make.

Robbie's goal was sublime. Any idea where the highlights will be shown? There appeared to be a camera there.

[Monkfish]

Robbie surely looking good to start Friday? was fantastic, whole team had a good night in fairness.
Fine attendance too it has to be said, credit to Cork there.

[harpin]

Draw for next round??

[bluewhitearmy]

Monaghan at home in Q-Final.

[Jofspring]

Very good chance of progression. Hopefully Limerick will continue their good run of form in the Cup and League. If we can make the semi-final there is no reason Limerick can't give it a good go and hopfully a cup final on the cards. I know some people will say its only the League Cup but a cup is a cup.

[LK37oldskool]
