I was suppose to go to the Killester game but I forget that I was going to Galway for the weekend :o anyway hopefully we get Killester away - if possible played at their ground well when I say ground I mean pitch! :)

Fair play to all of the 4 junior clubs. Three of them with very convincing wins and the fourth earning a hard fought draw.

As long as it's a home game, I don't care who we get. Or if it is away, then let it be Mons, good craic there;).

:eek:

Hard luck to Tolka Rovers....was cheering them on.

I'd love to get Shamrock Rovers in the next round - assuming we can win a few games before hand!

I was just wondering what did he do? I have to add also that although the Castlebar Celtic team are doing very well Dykes has ripped the team apart by bringing in a load of outsiders into the club and there will be problems later on down the road>

He was trying to influence some of our players to look for more money, only one was stupid enough to fall for it...

In Killester's 6-1 over St. Mochtas Mick Keogh scored an amazing 5 goals. He now joins a very exclusive club along with Stephen Doyle (Shelbourne V Bray), Michael McCabe (Brooklyn V Jacobs), Jimmy Shiels (Dolphins V St. James's Gate), Ray Rogers (Bohs V Tranmore Rookies), Sean McCarthy (Cork United V St. James's Gate), Alfie Hale (Waterford V
Rialto).

"I'm actually a Shels supporter and I wouldn't mind playing them although it would have been better if Wes Houlihan was still there - I was on a full-time FÁS Soccer course with him some years back."*

*From yesterday's pullout in the Star.

Fair play to the chap and he could go on now and end up the top goalscorer of the competition :eek:

what was the killester team? think i know one of their players

I have not got a clue but I know one of them personally - Andy Fitzsimons! And their GK is Keith something or other :confused: :o

FAI Cup 2nd round draw is in Drogheda this week.

Yep it's tomorrow :)

Is it on the tele/radio and what time?
