So with little over an hour to M.N.S. the tention is building for the Cup Draw. The teams that will go into the drum are :
Fingal
Bohs
Bray
Derry
Galway
Athlone
Pats
Dundalk
Tralee
U.C.D.
Rovers
Longford
Monaghan
Crumlin
Sligo
The Blues.
So who do we want. I want either Tralee or Crumlin at home.
Pats at home please
I WANT Longford away, but, we'll get Shams ,Bohs or Waterford away.
You must be very excited with a thread title like that.
Can I have Tralee away please? Need an excuse to go to Kerry.
Is it???????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!### #///!¬!!!!!!!!!!Quote:

Rovers away! Not the best for our chances of progression but I'm looking forward to my first game in the new stadium. Nice bit of money for the club too.
What's tention, and why is it involved in the construction business when no-one else seems to be at the moment....?
Hilarious altogether.Quote:

They do, but did you not realise that they were all incorrect decisions, they are being hard-done by by referees, it is all a conspiracy against the poor lambsQuote:

Wonder what the odds are on Fenlon getting his head stuck up the 4th officials arse permanently during the game?Quote:

No wonder they didn`t show "The good the bad and the ugly" on MNS last night.Quote:

I'm sure your surface does meet whatever the UEFA/FAI standards are, but for me football should be played on grass. Keep that synthetic s****e for 7-a side football in the evenings.Quote:

So far it doesn't seem to be much of an advantage to Dundalk, but when you keep getting players sent off (not just bohs matches) you are going to struggle no matter what the surface you are playing on.
I think Bohs should look into getting one though, it's a nice little money earner. Would keep them ticking over until they qualify for the champions league!Quote:

Absolutely, I was trying to work out our number because I assumed it was alphabetical order and Shams and Tralee were called out before us. Maybe it dosent matter really but a quick list at the start would be no harm.Quote:

Even though I watched the draw, and have the Sligo fixture noted in my diary, I still wondered when I saw this thread how I could have missed the fact that there's a draw today. :)
:DCmon Crumlin well able to take anyone :D
After losing 2 players to shels!!:rolleyes:Quote:
