Dundalk v Bray replay is on tonight. Heard that Gill will play a weakened side, with Thursdays big game in mind. When is the draw for the QF?

I was at the wayside game on saturday ,great performance by wayside and deserved to go through.
Looked certain to go to a replay.No doubt about the penalty and red card at the end either.
Doh!!!
Meant to say "worked up about it" :o
Why has Derry's game been moved to a home match? It's hardly Kildare's fault the pitch was flooded...I assume they agreed to it?
Yep, they agreed to it. Apparently Station Road has no chance of being playable anytime soon. Kildare are probably just thinking of the money. It'll be a much bigger crowd at the Brandy. Still think it's a bit weird though, giving up home advantage. It was probably their best chance of getting through.
True, however they are in financial difficulty and a crowd of 3,000 as opposed to the c.500 they would get at Station Road, coupled with the cost of staging the match, would swing them into moving it as you said. They only stand a very marginal chance anyway...
Theres a picture on the kildare website, Station rd look more fit for waterpolo than football at the moment. plus they need the cash
here is the link to that pic

When is the draw for the 1/4 finals?
Derry 2 up on Kildare. Stewart and Big Clive.
Derry 5 - 0 now Stewart got a second on 80 mins and Farren on 82
I agree that this wasn't Dundalk's biggest game of the week but there was only the two changes for Dundalk (Smyth for Mulvenna and Marney for Whelehan who ``broke down during the warm-up``), Bray made three (Tresson, Pender and Robson started).
Dundalk did look a very capable side on Friday without a few players, I expect us to play them again next season. Very well supported as well.
