Anyone any idea what the next round of games is? Looking for it on the FAI LOI site, the only fixture list I could find was for 2009.

That's our pool's dates. Think I have the other ones at home too, will check in a bit.Quote:

24th September - Final
Some big shocks on the cards with Salthill leading Derry 2-1 and Cockhill beating Galway 3-1. UCD reserves beating Longford 2-0
Derry pull level
Galway are out beaten easily 3-1 by Cockhill according to Extratime.
Unbelievable finish in Flancare Park. Longford came back from 2 down to level 2-2 in 90th min, UCD go up the other side straight away and score winner.
Drogs beat Bray 1-0, Limerick beat Kerry 1-0, Shels beat Carlow 4-0 and both Harps/Mervue and Derry/Salthill into extratime.
KDL still scoreless with Limerick, presume ET and penalties apply as usual.
Gaffney penalty puts Mervue in front

Sounds like UCD's winner was probably offside. Damned big clubs getting all the decisions. Still giving them a two goal head start probably wasn't a good idea.
where are cockhill Celtic from?
I've never heard of them.
From Buncrana in Donegal. 2 ex-Harps players playing for them in Gerry Gill and Mark Moran. Former Harps, Derry and numerous other clubs player Donal O'Brien is their manager.Quote:

Cockhills season only gets underway on Sunday with a league cup game too. Galway really should be much sharper.
Derry win 4-2, Mervue beat Harps 1-0.
Cockhill were the USL champions last season.
I went along to the Galway game. Cockhill were full value for the win. They hardly put a foot wrong to be honest. Galway had a strong enough team out too from what I could tell.
Happy with our win tonight. From what I've heard we played pretty well and its always good to score a few goals.
What sort of ****s are been groomed up there to referee....2 games in a row we get officials who wouldn't look out of place in a circus. UCD's second goal was never a penalty. Alvin Rouse clearly won the ball in the box yet the ref and even worse linesman who was on that side gave them a penalty!!! And then for UCD's winner there were 3 players offside including the goalscorer!! Complete joke!! And also when we had our penalty the keeper was messing about with his water bottle trying to put Salmon off when I (from behind the goals) roared 'book him' and in comes the ref flashing a yellow!!!! How much do these officials get paid? Its a total disgrace as they're far from up to the job.
Any money bet on Cockhill at 8/1 ?
Only by the Galway squad by the looks of things :DQuote:

I went to watch Galway last night and left after 75mins because they were so poor but I can't take anything way from Corkhill Celtic who were really up for the game and i find it very funny how they let King and Molloy go to Mervue! Mervue have some good young players on their hands and I can only see them getting better and having a good season. Also I think the fact that John Glynn has returned as manager who I always liked from his time at Cork years ago as a player has helped them along with returning to Fahy's Field.
Are you sure you want to know youl be sick to hear that for a ref and 2 lineman in pre-season we had to pay €780 so throw in the 4th official last night your looking at almost a grandQuote:

EA SPORTS CUP SECOND ROUND DRAW MADE
EA SPORTS Cup holders Sligo Rovers have been drawn against non-league surprise packets Cockhill Celtic in the Second Round of the competition.
The Bit O’Red will travel to Donegal to face the Junior side, who shocked Galway United in the First Round on Monday night.
Paul McKinney was credited with a hat-trick in the 3-1 win for the Inishowen peninsula outfit at Terryland Park.
