FAI Cup

The draw was made on MNS earlier, Pike Rovers at home for us. Great draw. They're not a terrible team by any means but we obviously should be winning it.

Would have preferred an away trip to one of the premier clubs but hopefully we can get through this and maybe get one in the next draw..

b0lloxs to that - non league opposition until the semi's at least! :)

This will be a very tough tie, Pike are a top junior side and almost beat Sligo in 2010, any word on dates?

Now that you say it, I wouldn't say no to another sunny day sitting on the balcony of that bar in Tolka Rovers' ground..

Tolka rovers were the first name out of the hat.. Was hoping for a return visit there..

[Acornvilla]

Its about as good a draw as we could have hoped for, be happy one and all.

I would say Pike are better than some of the current First Division sides judging by reports all across the country.

Meh, junior football tends to overrate itself while in division 1 people say every single year that it's the worst one ever. And then the cup comes round and the juniors get mashed.

Or win. Like Cherry Orchard last year. :(
