Why no Euro spot for the Cup runners up if we qualified for Europe through the league?
If someone does the double, the Cup runners-up get into Europe.
If the league runners-up win the Cup, they are deemed to qualify for Europe through the Cup, not the league (as it's higher seeded in UEFA's eyes), so the extra UEFA spot would go to third in the league, and the InterToto spot to fourth.
UCD played some of those mad Asian teams too - Jordan, China, etc - might have been a big crowd at some of them. CTID would know, I'd imagine.

Rovers Vs. Shams would have more chance in my opinion.Had a dream last night that we got Shams away in the next round:o.

Spoke to a very pleasant man called Andy in the FAI.
The draw will take place during the week beginning Monday September 4th and is provisionally set for Wednesday September 6th. That date is subject to change depending on the availability of those chosen to do the draw. It will be screened live on the RTE 6.1 news.
The 1/4 final fixtures will take place during the weekend of Friday September 29th - Sunday October 1st.
Two of the fixtures will be screened live on TG4, the first on the Friday night and the second on the Saturday night.

That will rule the derry match out from being shown live then, we play PSG on the 28th, so i would guess our match will have to be the sunday evening.

As of this season, no they don't. New UEFA rules. If Derry win the league and the cup, the second UEFA Cup spot will go to second place.

Does the same rule apply to the Setanta Cup?
JohnnyMc certainly doesn't seem to think so

Yeah - he was effectively saying - I hope we avoid Derry until the final coz we haven't a chance of beating them at the moment!
I guess it's fair enough though, they're on an unbelievable run for the last year and a half (not sure it can be classified as a run anymore)
Their only losses have been last minute away at Shels, away at Rovers, last minute away at Cork on the last day and last minute away at Cork in the cup.
When was the last time they lost in the Brandywell anyone know?

It's always been the rules in the Setanta Cup. It was explicitly stated when the competition was launched that the cup runners won't get in.

Next week, according to the FAI. It's in there somewhere! Either Monday or Wednesday.
Do you have a link for the Cup runners-up not getting into Europe? I read about it on some Scottish clubs' MB when Gretna were embarrassing their league, but someone said that that had been rescinded...?

I don't. I'll consult the Bible, er, I mean Bert Kassies.

The Bert Kassies forum is down.
According to wikipedia: " If a team qualifies for European competition through both winning a cup and league placing, the "spare" UEFA Cup place will go to either the cup runners-up or the highest placed league team which has not already qualified for European competition, depending on the rules of the national association."
The main Bert Kassies page says: "If the cup winner of a country also qualifies for the Champions League, then the losing team of the cup final is qualified for the UEFA Cup."
Either they're not up to date or it was recinded. I could have sworn they had passed it that cup runners up wouldn't get in anymore.:confused:

This article in the Scotsman paper in March related to Gretna's cup run would suggest that UEFA agreed to cancel the cup runners up spot before the end of last season and only agreed to hold it off until this season as it would have been unfair to teams who had already qualified for Europe. Confusing stuff.:confused:

Me saving from you again, but you being happy because at least you blasted the rebound hig into the net! :D

That sounds about right. Haven't heard anything from the FAI on it. It's all dependent, of course, on Derry winning the league and getting to the final. Anything else and it's academic.
