Galway United V Athlone Town in FAI Cup is a potential banana skin. Da Town are full of ex United players but none more explosive than Eric Lavine who has been going through a dry spell .....for the last few years. His high profile departure from GUFC resulted in him washing his laundry in public when he rang a radio station to state his case against then manager Stephen Lally. He also had a similar public falling out with Don O'Riordan a few years previous when he left GUFC the first time.
Lavine will be buzzing tomorrow and will be eager to get on the scoresheet. He will have to be tightly marked. Most of the current United squad have probably never even heard of him before
