Don't think bobby will be doing the draw again anyway.Did you see his face when he drew out dublin city in the last draw?He thought they must've been a big team by the name,it was funny at the time.Should be on rte at about 6:30 or slightly earlier whatever day it's on.

I'd say Monday too. I've emailed the FAI anyway to see what(if any) they say.

Seriously how many?

Killester at home would be most people's preffered draw.

I'd like Derry at home. They've got to be put out at some stage if someone else is to win the cup. Better to get them slap bang in the middle of their fixture congestion and far away from Derry. Their fans also make a better occasion that anyone else. I wouldn't fancy our chances but there's no European spot for finishing runner up to them so may as well get them over and done with. Also hope the winners of Harps/Athlone draw Killester so there's a lower placed team left in the semi finals.
What about getting to the semis and being on TV? Once we avoid Derry and Sligo away I'm happy. And then get Derry home in the semis:rolleyes:

While some people may find that very arrogant, you've got a right to say it! Derry are the team to avoid in the draw. While I know we're not through yet, I'm confident of going through and I feel we could beat any of the teams on any given day apart from Derry.

I've have a very bad feeling we're gonna get a **** draw-Derry away:eek:. Hope not. Also hope Killester don't get Derry, don't wanna make it easy for them;)

Nah, don't want to get that close to the cup with the torment of knowing Derry stand in the way. It'd also be the first game after they get back from Paris as long as it isn't pushed with their rearranged schedule. I imagine UCD v Derry would have a fair chance of being televised.

You've a one in two chance. Killester at home would probably ensure no TV though.;)

The first division teams,derry,I'm reliablely informed that wford and longford are still sh*te by tv3 and supporters I meet at internationals and ucd are ucd,gritty and tough to beat if you don't play good football.Sligo seem alright from what I've seen on tv3 but do they pass the ball or hoof it?

3,000 to Scotland, 600 or 700 to Shels today.

The last time you came to the Brandywell you brought 100 and they fought with each other.

Keeping digging.

If we get yous in the cup we'll bring up atleast 600 or 700 and this is a first division club.We've been bringing around 200-300 all around Ireland consistently this year,the cobh trip was great with a great crowd.If yous were in our situation you'd have about 600 at home games as you did for years.Enjoy your trip on the derry bandwagon while it lasts,meanwhile we'll just support our club through thick and thin and wait for the enevitable sixteenth league trophy.

Anyway, I'd be happy to draw Rovers. Remind me what happened in 2002 again?

Longford played the ball on the deck on the two occasions I've seen them play this season. UCD are tough to beat because we have a solid defence as well as a team who play the ball on the ground.

And would you drop the condescending attitude just because people don't agree with you.

Why no Euro spot for the Cup runners up if we qualified for Europe through the league ?

Also hope the winners of Harps/Athlone draw Killester so there's a lower placed team left in the semi finals.

But that would risk aving a dreadful looking stadium as the home veneue fro a televised semi-final - which wouldn't be good for the league.

I'd like a City v Harps semi at the Brandywell, as a decent cup run would generate good money for Harps at a time that they need it.

nshoop and his attitude = "no-one likes us we don't care" while every other poster views it as "please hate Rovers, we need attention here, please just some feckin hate, WE STILL EXIST"

I can't ever remember having home attendances of 600 but you would obviously know better. I do envy your club of the people and how they were going to sue Ollie for wild accusations but then, oh yeah, who's pockets are you filling this year?

A Sham :D giving us abuse about bandwagon doesn't merit a response but then again I am envious of the crowds of 10,000+ you got when every taxi driver in Dublin went down to Milltown/car park. Where are those boyos now?

Any idea when the schools start back so we can get rid of the idiocy?

Dublinharp, do you really expect us, or anyone, to tell you when the draw for the cup is? If we did that, people might know about it. The papers might cover it. It could even be considered promoting the game. Shame on you all of for even asking!

And by the way, Dundalk are the bestest supported team in Ireland ever ever...FACT (see, I wrote it in capital letters, so it has to be true). Has any other Irish club played in front of 100,000? Thought not! ;-)

Although they do have there problems i do believe Shamrock Rovers are the best fans in the league.

Pats played Iran in a friendly in the late 80's i think (Dodge??) and there were about 100,000 at it, all men too!!

Rang the FAI to find out about the draw and nobody knows, "theres nobody around to answer your query can you call back later?" was the response.
