I won't mind home Premier side, away first Div. or non-league especially one we havn't played before.
If you promise to bring about 500 supporters:DQuote:

The idiotic whooping and hollering was coming from juniorballers. :rolleyes:
Shouldn't be invited into polite company to mix with serious football people.
i am well aware of that Gufc but try telling that to the naked eye of the casual watcher who tuned in to see Trap. Its the same every year, could they not be more professional about it. Just makes it all seem so bloody amateur. The GAA are an amateur organisation but you dont see this lark at their draws
ya rte should have told the lads not to be roaring. Bit late now though
great draw for Limerick football, shoul draw a big crowd and reignite an old rivalry. Could be fun ;)
Don't worry. If they're anything like St. Mochta's, they'll be getting a right hammering.Quote:

Will one of the games be on TV does anyone know?
No offence taken, I hope you found what you were looking for. And good luck with promoting the game.Quote:

Which county are Carrick Utd. from? I thought they were Wexford, but in the last week I also heard Waterford.
Don;t TG4 normally show a game per round ? Battle of the SRFC's I'd guess would be the choice if there is a live match.

I'd assume that would be the match but if it was TG4 then maybe they would go for Galway vs. Waterford. It'd probably be a more interesting match with the potential for an upset.Quote:
