Me too, MSC is a great competition!
First game is usually right in the middle of pre-season as you say, and then you've only two more max, and the final might fall in the mid-season break as it did for us last year. You get to play teams you rarely, if ever, would, and it's nice to have a competition that not everyone else is in. Would love to see the CSC start up as was mentioned elsewhere.
That's our pool's dates. Think I have the other ones at home too, will check in a bit.

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.
sign of the times a few years back teams like cockhill would have never beaten even galways second string I know upsets happen from time to time but galway seem to have been well beaten, fair play to cockhill !
