The Cup thread

[superfrank]

St. Mochta's. Never even heard of them. :o

[Grey Boy]

Me neither, can't ask for more than a non league team at home at this stage.

[Stevo Da Gull]

I got even more of a shock when I checked Aertel and saw that we drew `St Muckno's`:D

Don't know much about them and don't want to uderestimate them but, as was said, you cant ask for much more than a home draw against a non-league side.

[bray boy]

they may not be very good but theyll b deffo up 4 it cant underestimate them.............................................. .................................................. ...............we shud hammer them tho lol

Game confirmed for Sunday the 17th of June at 3pm.

[Bray Head]

Why Sunday ? Whats wrong with friday.

[superfrank]

Haven't a clue, maybe they're leaving the door open for families. :rolleyes: That's just what it says on the site.

[Grey Boy]

The cup match should like all other games be on Friday nights. The potential stay aways will definitely stay away if Dublin are on the box as I think they are. I missed a couple of league games last year that were changed from Friday to Sunday and as a season ticket holder, didn't feel that was fair. I can understand if it's a big Dublin team and the club are trying to maximise crowd size (although this should be stated as the fixtures are given-unless there are unforseen circumstance ).

Maybe the club had an experimental reason for putting this fixture on Sunday, but if they did they should have said through the web site.

Dublin-Meath replay will be on the telly. I know one Bray fan who'll be torn.

[dublinwanderer]

i hate sunday matches. why the fcuk did they change it and the waterford game??? they experiment every year to try get more people at the games do they not realise it doesnt work

[centre mid]

St Mochtas are a decent enough junior outfit, play out near blanchardstown. On the sunday thing, i cant think of any reason why it was changed. IMHO it will have a negative effect on attendance. The Dublin v Meath match will definetly take away it.

[Hulsey]

Read in the star their captain was getting married that day so they asked for a change to sunday. And then the lad went and broke his leg in training last week. Sh!t one for him eh?

[bray boy]

fair play to the lads did a professional job and hammerd the amatuers.Jay really cant score !!!he as usual amazingly im sure the goals will start coming soon.What is brays record score does anyone know?this must be up there....

[superfrank]

This equals it. It was 7-0 against Cobh.

Well done to the lads. They did the job very well.

[Seagull]

Job well done. Eddie Gormley quoted in the paper saying how he was looking forward to his first FAI Cup game in charge, then he lets Longer take charge :)

[superfrank]

I thought he was suspended.

[CollegeTillIDie]

Well done Wanderers St Francis 1990 St Mochtas 2007, putting sainted non League teams to the sword... priceless :D

[bray boy]

bray wanderers killing fairytales since 1990.....

[BrayUnknowns]

Dunphy was class, i know he was up against a poor side, but he still played quality. Took his goal well and had another ruled out for offside when he wasn't... hopefully this will give him a big confidence boost going into Friday's game against St Pats.

[superfrank]

I think if anyone needs a confidence boost now it's Jay. It just wouldn't go in for him on Sunday.

[notever]

At the end of the day you can only beat what is put in front of you and they did that in style,so well done the lads.It can only do the confidence a power of good so roll on the next Saints......:ball:

[Cabinteelygull]

When is the next round draw??

[dublinwanderer]

5th july in killarney!!!

[KR's Post]

This equals it. It was 7-0 against Cobh.

Well done to the lads. They did the job very well.

Nicky Byrne from westlife was in goals that day. Not many know that. For Cobh that is.

[mightyseagull]

Anyone feeling a cup shock coming

[Dodge]

Anyone feeling a cup shock coming
Hopefully we can shock you

[superfrank]

Should be fun alright. I reckon it could very well be on the box. Aren't RTE showing one and TG4 another?

[Grasshopper 99]

Ah we can beat them alright, should have done already. Better not be on sunday but if its on the box which i assume it will be it will have to be played on friday night as rte will be showing the gaa
