True. Longford-Cork looks a definite for the TV clash. Maybe Limerick v Drogs. Nothing else though really.

Though that about cameras coming to Belfield Park for a leauge match as well, but it's happening next month.

What's your ground like now? Is it just the one stand behind the goal or is there another? If yez can fill it between yez - bit of interest in Limerick, good Drogs following and all that - then maybe. Stranger things have happened!

AThlone v GUFC is an interesting draw aswell.With it been a bit of a derby and Lavine,fortune,Forde and Keane all now playing for Athlone it has the makings of a cracker.
There'll be a great atmosphere there too...large Galway crowd will travel.

With Bohez drawn at home as well ye are probably looking at a Sunday afternoon fixture.

I'd say the live game will be eatier Limerick vs Drogs or Longford vs City. I don't know who will show it. I'm delighted my home town Carrigaline got a home draw. Hopefully an upset will be on the cards there.

Is Hogan Park suitable for tv? Would the crowd fit? Is Thomond available? ;)

The only tv options are:

Longford v Cork City
Bray Wanderes V Kildare
Limerick FC V Drogheda Utd

TG4 seem to like getting out of Dublin. Who did TG4 show last year? I remember Cork City v Sligo.

It doesn't get any easier for Avondale, should they beat Crumlin this Saturday, 3 trips to Dubland in the Intermediate Cup and 1 already in the FAI Cup as well as an Intermediate Cup Semi final in Donegal.

FAI Carlsberg Cup Second Round Draw
College Corinthians/Blarney United v Derry City

The tie that stands out for me. Blarney United. Managed by David O'Leary. ;)

It's basically a terraced shed behind one of the goals with sloped gravel terracing on the side the camera would be facing and behind the other goals. IMHO ground would look tidy enough if you got 2 to 3 thousand to fill it up. :ball:

At a squeeze I reckon capacity wise you're talking 7 to 8 thousand ;) :p

And FYI that burning car was at least 100 yards from the ground :D

Longford V Cork City
Blarney/College Corinthians V Derry City
Castlebar Celtic V Shamrock Rovers
Athlone Town V Galway United
Bangor/Athenry V Shelbourne
Finn Harps V Avondale/Crumlin
Malahide V St Patrick's Athletic
Dublin City V Monaghan United
Bohemians V Waterford Crystal
Bray Wanderers V Kildare County
Kilkenny City V UCD
Waterford United V Douglas Hall
Dundalk V Cobh Ramblers
Carrigaline Utd V Sligo Rovers
Wayside Celtic V Killester United
Limerick FC V Drogheda United

Next question I suppose - are there any shocks? Anywhere?!

Maybe Kildare against Bray and Monaghan against Dublin City (beat them the last time DC were in the Premier), but even they're unlikely. Wouldn't classify Athlone beating Galway or Cobh beating Dundalk as a shock. Bar Harps v Avondale or Crumlin and Wayside v Killester, all the non-league clubs got Premier opposition, so I can't see anything coming out of those games. Fairly dull draw really, though hopefully setting it up for a good Third Round draw with a lot of the top names still in it.

Would love to be heading off to Castlebar or Athenry or Carrigaline or Blarney for a game! Still, got to be happy with a trip to Kilkenny.:)

Does anyone know anything about Castlebar Celtic? Might be worth a trip to Mayo for that game. Do they have a "stadium" as such and is it likely to be an all ticket event ?

If in doubt check the internet:

http://www.castlebarceltic.com/default.asp?nc=929&id=39

Founded around 80 years ago. As Ronan Keating would say "Fair play". CLub badge is a bit Glasgow Celticish though with the shamrock in the middle (although Celtic's is a clover I think).

They showed FAI Cup 3rd Round - Dundalk FC vs. Drogheda Utd. It was the first game back at Oriel Park.

As for Dundalk at home to Cobh Ramblers - I'm happy with that. Hopefully will get us started on a cup run. :)

Crumlin defeated Avondale 1-0 on Saturday, The Avondale treasurer jumped higher than any of the Crumlin players or staff as they face a trek to Ballybofey.
Blarney defeated College Corinthians 2-1 AET yesterday to gain a plum tie at home to Derry City.

We were all hoping to progress and get a game against a great side.
We were two up , but credit to bangor the came back and snook it after dominating the second half. Just a bit unhappy seeing the ref clinch his fist in celebration when Bangor got the 3rd but these things happen away from home i guess!?!

good luck to them in the next round.and GUFC of course
