If only we could play Bohs and Rovers every week we'd be sortedQuote:

Full Time - Waterford 2-0 Cobh Ramblers. Dean O'Halloran and Derek Daly with the goals. Blues are the first team into the last eight. Blues now 9 unbeaten
Fairly strong Cork City side today.
Dundalk got a penalty.. and missed
11 changes for Limerick was always a tough ask then I seen the cork team and knew it was to much lol.
845 there tonight
Extra time here in Oriel. Dundalk should kick on and win, but we've done well with a changed team ourselves. Annoying that dundalk equalised when we were down to ten for an injury. But what can you do.
When is the draw for the Quarter Finals everyone ?
Penos in Oriel now.
Corbet having a super game
6-5 dundalk. Good shoot out.
Very comfortable for Cork tonight. We made 10 changes and a couple of them are nowhere near good enough.
Game at Finn Park has been stopped for 20 minutes due to a serious head injiry. 2 ambulance on pitch. Very, very worrying.

BJ Banda stretchered off. Later on Mailley and Doherty clash heads. Doherty and Banda taken to hospital. Sounds like some horrible injuries. Hope everyone is ok.
Shels 0 Longford 2. Two wins over Shels in a couple of days. I assume we play one of the Dublin clubs in the quarters.
Think rovers/Bohs/CABO/Athlone were the remaining teams in our pool.Quote:

Sickening clash of heads at Finn Park totally sucked any bit of life out of the game. Harps denied a perfectly good goal just before Sligo scored too. I felt the game should have been abandoned after 20 minutes of the major injury on the pitch. Serious amount of blood left lying on the pitch that had to be attempted to be washed away by a steward.
Not particularly bothered about the result, a cup run would have been nice, but league survival is more important.
Early indications that both Harry Doherty and Packie Mailey are alert and on their feet in Letterkenny Hospital which is great news, but has yet to be confirmed by any official source.
theres a photo on twitter of Doherty giving the thumbs up in hospital which is good. Not seen anything about the other lad though.Quote:

Couple of images from Finn Park tonight showing the extent of the injuries to Packie Mailey and Harry Doherty. Photos from Gerard McHugh photography.

its the furthest we have gone in the league cup since the 14 season when we lost to Bohs in the quarters in Flancare. If we somehow get through 05 was the last time we reached the semis in the league cup when we lost in the Brandywell.
Anyone know when the next round is,and also the draw?
On an unrelated note, has the cheese slid off Stephen Kenny's cracker?
Draw apparently at 5pm tomorrow; quarters to be played on Monday May 1 (bank holiday) as per original season fixture list
The cheese has slipped off his cracker for sure.
You're welcome, by the way. You might actually have a chance of winning now we've knocked out the team that beat you every year.Quote:

Would've taken any home draw, so I'm happy with that
Home draw and a useful workout for fringe players and those looking for match fitness.
Might go to that one depending on kick off time. Tallaght is the closest league ground to me. There's a direct bus too :cool:
Seemed like the right thread for this...
All too forgotten on match night, the 54 Crew pay tribute to the medical staff who looked after the three injured parties on Monday night in the EA Sports Cup game with Sligo, including Sligos own physio who rushed onto the pitch to help the injured Harps players.

It looks like a "big club" is going to lift the trophy this season unless somehow Longford shock Rovers in Tallaght tomorrow night.
Cork, Dundalk and Galway all qualified for the semis today. Galway Reserves getting through on penalties against Sligo's first team.
Anyone know when the semi-finals are scheduled for?
Comfortable win for Dundalk this evening.we were poor enough 1st half, lacklustre,but better 2nd and result was never in doubt once we hit the front.
Still not in any great form though and a few players passengers.
Decent crowd made it up from Waterford and sung and supported right to end.fair play to them.
Monday August 7 as per fixture list released by FAI before the start of the seasonQuote:

I suppose a big club could win it but then again Galway United could win their first ever piece of silverware, be nice to seeQuote:
