Bray Wanderers v Dundalk
Shamrock Rovers v Shelbourne
Bohemians v Sporting Fingal
UCD v St Patrick's Athletic or Drogheda United
Matches to be played on or before Sunday April 4th.
Drogheda took the spoils at Richmond Park 0-1 Drogs from an early header.
St.Pats created a few openings one dragged wide in the first half, Drogs 'keeper got down well to block in the second. Drogs had their chances aswell one header from a corner was deftly headed from three yards out but the Pats 'keeper got across to punch clear. Terrific save.
Reasonable crowd for a Monday, both sets of fans got in some flag waving practice for the season ahead.
1-0 to Fingal against Bohs. Barrett. Early in the second half.
Bohs team
Murphy
Murphy Oman Collins Rossi
Moran
Higgins Traynor
Dixon Green Burke
4-3-3
finished 2-0 to Fingal.
Our second scorer was Dawson. He had a great game in the second half as did most of our team. Much improved from the first half. Should have been a goal for Bohs in the first half but the linesman didnt see that the ball was about a foot over the line :)Quote:

What kind of team did Finglas have out?
Quigley,Gannon,Frost,Quinn,Kirby,Barrett,Byrne,Cro we thats all I can remember and Zayed came on at half time
About 3 or 4 youth players some reserves and Conan and kirby first half. With Zayed playing the second. Crowe played the full game.Quote:

As I live less than a 5 min walk from Dalymount it's not that big a deal for me to go & watch a game.:pQuote:

in fairness Ned, the tale of beating the glorious and invincible Bohemians in Dalymount Park in "the cup" will be told to his kids and grandkids for years to come.Quote:

That week looks a good time for UCD and Drogheda Utd at the UCD Bowl aswell. The next likely date is May 17th, depending on some results there will be a few LoI sides playing six mid-weeks in a row.Quote:
