results last night could have been worse :)
It would be a massive lift for all if we could do it. We are as strong as each of the teams left in the competition. Sligo away would be the one to avoid as we have come home empty handed from there with much stronger Bray sides. The draw has been very kind for us and I hope that continues in the semis. Anybody could win it from here. Whoever wins it will get a much needed boost in terms of profile in the recession, from what i hear in total (cup win, europe, setanta if its still around) would be worth a min 300k to the winning side. Thats massive in our league. Fingers crossed!!
When's the semi-final on? I'm getting nervous already. Come on Bray!Quote:

If, and its a big if did win the Cup then that figure of €300k would transform our club for next season and who we could sign etc (providing we stay in the premier as well !) Jesus so many ifs :)
We won't get away with another performance like last night's second half again. Why did they stop playing? Where was Gormley? Anyway, can't wait for Monday night's draw.Quote:

Well boys and girls, the draw is tonight. Who do we want ? I suppose at this stage of the draw all you can ask for is a home tie. The one i wouldn't want is Sligo away, we have a poor record down there but a good one at home against them. I'd be happy with anyone at home.
Home please!
Away to Sporting Fingal.
Sporting have a better home record than Waterford so I guess it'll be tougher.
When I saw them earlier in the year, I wasn't impressed but then we weren't great either that day.
I think it's one we could do but I'd say they are happy with the draw at the same time.
Tough draw as Eddie said they have premier league players. Then again any of the three teams would have been a tough draw as not much to call between them all.
Yep spot on there, any game at this stage is going to be a tough.Quote:

As we are capalbe of the good and the bad, Sporting are very much the same and would be in a similar position to us if they were in the Premier, they have had plenty of injuries this season and have struggled to put a full strength team out once. They lost to Wexford last night so lets hop they go on a dodgy run now :D
sunday kick off
Kick off confirmed for 4.05pm.
are there tickets on sale from the clun tonight for the semi final?
Tickets will be available from the club for the semi-final match about a week before it, i doubt it will be any earlier.
Do we really have a hope in hell against fingal after last nights performance ...
Of course we do. Cup game is totally different one off game. Come ko the players will be busting a gut to make the final and the league position will not be on their minds at all.Quote:
