The players that cant get in the Pike side at the moment would walk on to most teams in the country....They have a very good 14/15 players plus what players they'll sign in the next few weeks (some of which won't be cup tied from the FAI)

Pike are a very short price if i was on betfair i might lay them. The weight of expectation might be too much to bear, but then again the way some of ye are talking about squads and new signings they should win the fai senior let alone the junior.
Anyone know when the 6th round draw is taking place?
if kilmallock win there 5th rd tie at home they will be at home to pike possible all limerick tie very good draw for pike you would expect them to come through this
Cant find any sign of draw (6th round - supposedly made tonight) anywhere on the Net.
If anybody out there has the full draw - please post it here.
If you cant post full draw - can one find out what lies in store for winners of Ballyscadden/Tolka FC vs Springfield (5th Round tie!)
Regards
The winers of that game offside rule play the killester st kevins and ballynanty winner
What was the full draw for the fai junior cup ?
better chance of getting a cut in your VHI prem, then getting an FAI Jnr Cup draw.
Hi lads is this famous draw anywhere to be seen, senior blue if you have it would you mind posting it. Think its a disgrace that the fai are not posting it immediately on their site considering that alot of teams are going to travel considerable distances and need as much time as possible to organise themselves, not to mention giving players who might be working weekends the chance to get time off work.
Lads has any got the dates for the 6th round matches need to know asap
North End or Crumlin V Moville or Kilbarrack or Monksland or Chanell Sc

I know its an 'if' at this stage, but if in tie 7. Kinsale beat Belurgan( a long trip) and Gweedore come through the other side of the draw they will be left with an awful long trip. I wonder what is the longest trip that has been made in the Junior Cup, or what would be the longest possible one?
Irish geography would suggest any team from south,west Kerry, west Cork and any team from Northern Donegal and Inishowen.
Carrick Utd away to Redcastle, Inishowen Peninsula in 2008
Played with st.marys juniors cork about 5years ago away to carrowmena in donegal,it was a hell of a long trip.
Was that Iorras?? we went to play Kilmore in Black Sod Bay in the Connacht Cup a couple of years back on a dark snowy December Sunday, and we were only travelling from Sligo took us 4 hours to get there and more to get back(wee wee stops!!). Could only imagine travelling from Waterford, getting to Castlebar and thinking you were nearly there
Yes made that mistake on reaching Castlebar "we are nearly there" two hour later were climbing out of a pot hole !!
Gweedore Celtic could have to travel to North End in Wexford in tie 1. Another monster trip
Pike have played a few times up that in the last few years like Iorras, Ballygawley and Redcastle. We went up overnight and came back down straight away but stopping in a few pubs as you do.
Iorras travelled to Kinsale couple years ago, pitch in one of the most scenic spots in ireland overlooking Kinsale town, nice spot and lovely gang of players and people longest journey we ever took,with a couple of the short pits stops took us over 8 hours to get home,
not completly true pike spent a few hours in the local pub with the redcastle players and supporters which was appreciated by redcastle.
considering the long journey home you had,unlike another team i could mention.
gweedore celtic are out of cup so the longest distance any team would have to travel would be to milford utd.
good luck pike in the rest of the comp hope you win it.
ST Kevins have appealed their expulsion from the CUP.So there could be farther delays to the already behind great competition
St Kevins are entitled to appeal the decision so the onus should be on the fai junior council to resolve this matter asap to avoid the debacle the has being seen in this competition over the last few years, the appeal should be heard this week and decision made on the night and let the delay be as minimal as possible
