Probably shouldn't mention UCD lost our following FAI Cup game(s).
Happy with this. It will be UCD's first competitive game at Hunky Dory's Park Home of Drogheda United FC.
John Lester buried our dreams in a FAI Cup replay up there, 3-2 after extra-time. Great game. As was the first one.
Drogheda will be committed side for this match, that's why I'm looking forward to it.
