Doesn't matter how bad the ref is, that was pure stupidity. And on another night Cockhill could of had 2 or 3 sent off, some very tasty tackles from themQuote:

Yeah, just a reminder than pools finish at this round (ie the quarter finals are open draw)
There'll be at least 3 non PD teams in the quarters too
Wonder what kind of mind set the waterford players will be in for the game today can't be easy for them.. good chance for some of our fringe players to show what they can do.. raining away here today so attendance sure to be down from what we would expect.
Any teams looking like going full strength in the league cup?
Bit of a mix for us, I'd imagine. Not sure on the line-up but Patterson and Nathan Boyle (from our USL side) are starting.Quote:

I'd say we will be strong enough but I'm sure the likes of Dave o'leary Ian turner rob lehane and Matt gledhill in goals should get some game time.. maybe davoren for a start too.. this is the only trophy I haven't seen us win so really want it to happen
We'll have our second team out for it, so PFAI player of the year Killian Brennan and Champions player of the year Greg Bolger will start for us :)
Barraclough said he'll be using the rest of the squad and some of the under 19s today when he was interviewed after the match on Saturday nightQuote:

Dundalk started a totally different 11 compared to their game against Cork
We have 3 starters from Saturday night.
