Not a misprint, I think the draw was made last monday night!
Don't know the full draw though...

Desmond Cup 2nd Round Draw

Broadford Utd B v Shannonside
Pallaskenry v Granagh Utd
Ncw Rvs v Glin Rvs
Abbeyfeale Utd v Kilcolman Rvs
Athea Utd or Rockhill Rvs v Shountrade
Rathkeale B v Shannonside B or Ballysteen
Glin Rvs B v Adare Utd B
Ballingarry v Killeaney or Kilcornan
Adare Utd v Mountcollins
Carrig Cel v Kildimo Utd
Ballingarry B v Broadford Utd
St Itas B v Newcastle West
Ferry Rngs v Askeaton
Ncw B v St Itas
Feenagh v Rathkeale
Old Mill V Breska Rvs

Looks like all the big teams shud make it into round 3 going by those fixtures..carrig and kildimo or ballingarry v killeaney must be the best games outta that round.

Have adare got some new players signed or are rathkeale going for relegation this year. What a surprising result does everybody not think so?

Not that surprising really 'Nunegget' considering Rathkeale have lost NINE players from last years double winning squad...

Have they lost 9 players from last year?? Who have left in the last year?

I still think it's surprising to be honest, it must be there worst start in quite a while. They have signed a few also and still have a lot of there main players a long road ahead yet I suppose!

Gaa county board have stopped 3 Bally Rovers players from playing against Killarney Celtic today. Its a joke telling players they will be dropped if they play.

Thats why the Desmond League will never improve GAA takes over every year.....

Thats some joke if its true. Soccer clubs never interfere with the GAA so what gives them the right to do it. The young lads should tell them to stick it if thats their attitude. They should be able to make up their own minds

Well 2 of the players did play but the 3rd didnt regardless

Youths FAI cup 4th round
Bally Rovers 1 7 Killarney Celtic

Youths Division 2 cup

Went to see shannonside v Newcastle west this morning.poor field I must admit but both sides tried their best to get on with things.Newcastle scored from a corner but shannonside levelled around 5 mins later..shannonside hit the bar but the ncw goalie got a great hand to push it onto the crossbar.ncw had a great chance and were unlucky with one shot but the shannonside keeper made a fantastic save
