Slightly off topic, but I can't get up to Dundalk for our game on Monday night against Glentoran. Anyone know any decent League of Ireland friendly pub with Setanta in Dublin I could watch it in? Does McDowell's out in Inchicore have Setanta and open on a Monday night? I work in Bluebell so that'd be pretty handy for me if it did.
Pity ye cant make it HS. I will keep an eye out for a link for you if thats any use.
Cheers Dunny, but my internet is useless. Trying to even listen to Dundalk FM online for the away games in the Setanta was hopeless. Pub and pints is the only solution! :D
Best solution there is.! :D Hopefully ye get sorted.Quote:

It's a strange situation where the first semi-final is due to take place at the same time as the last quarter-final tie on April 4th.Quote:
QUARTER FINALS FIXTURES
1ST LEG MATCHES
Monday, 28th March 2011
Sligo Rovers v Portadown.
2ND LEG MATCHES
Monday, 21st March 2011
Dundalk v Glentoran; Crusaders v Cliftonville.
Tuesday, 22nd March 2011
Shamrock Rovers v Lisburn Distillery.
Monday, 4th April 2011
Portadown v Sligo Rovers.
(All matches will kick off at 7.45 pm unless they are broadcasted live on Setanta Sports which may require a slight adjustment for TV schedules)
SEMI-FINALS FIXTURES
SEMI-FINAL 1
1ST Leg: Monday, 4th April 2011 (not involving Sligo Rovers/Portadown)
2nd Leg: Monday, 18th April 2011
SEMI-FINAL 2
1st Leg: Monday, 11th April 2011
2nd Leg: Tuesday, 19th April 2011
FINAL: Saturday, 14th May 2011
This appears to indicate that they have abandoned their previously stated intention to maximise the north v south clashes (as the winner of Sligo / Portadown Q-F will automatically play in the second semi).
No word yet on when the semi-final draw will take place, although the winners on this weeks 2nd leg matches should not be kept in the dark with the first semi scheduled for only a fortnight later.
I hope that all of this uncertainty is still relevant for Dundalk at 9.35pm on Monday night!
From Ezeikial “ It's a strange situation where the first semi-final is due to take place at the same time as the last quarter-final tie on April 4th.

Comment: By March 22nd the three semi-finalists, other than the winners of the Sligo/Portadown tie, will be known. The 3 will consist of one of the following possible combinations (i) 3 IL clubs (ii); 2 IL and 1 LOI; (iii) 1 IL and 2 LOI.
From this combination it is possible to arrange a first semi-final for April 4th that excludes the Sligo/Portadown winner AND still retains the option to maximise the North/South ties.
Fair comment and good observation. For this to happen the draw could not be finalised until after the 3rd Quarter Final match on Tues 22 MarchQuote:

The two unknowns to be filled by the winners of Dundalk/Glentoran and Shamrock Rovers / Lisburn Distillery.

Anyone know what the delay with Glens fans was?
Latest
Crusaders 3-5 Cliftonville (5-9 agg)
Dundalk 0-0 Glentoran (1-0 agg)
Dundalk's dangerous relaxed game in the first half bites them now..despite Gentoran not looking like scoring. Game desperately needed that goal
Crusaders get 1 back, 5-4 now.
Hope Glentoran win, will have enough trips to Dundalk this year without the chance of getting them again in this, if we get through.
It was painful viewing game until the first penalty. Bizarre tactics from Foster, don't rate him as a manager at all
Semi-final draw is on Wednesday
Crusaders 4-6 Cliftonville (6-10 agg) Result..
Glentoran down to 10men, Taylor sent off.
1-1 Dundalk, Gaynor.
Dundalk fans singing "You'll never beat the Irish" :o
Dundalk 1 v 1 Glentoran FT
Thought Richie winter was very card happy tonight,i also think the sending off was very harsh-quigley went down very easily!
