thats a great record,ye knocked out my club west in the last 8,3 years ago,ye won 2-0 in cranmore,comfortably i might add,ye have colemanstown next they produced a big shock in knockin hibs out,a tough one,even though hibs would of been tougher,how do u think ye'll do?
do u know when the last 8 is on,rumour has it that it's on the day after paddy's day,thats what we've been told if we beat corrib rangers that we are playin mervue then!
Its allways tough against the galway side,s in fairness.Most of them are good side,s.And we wont be taking Colemans Town for granted thats for sure.We have been told the games will be played on Paddys weekend.We have a few injurys so thank god it,s not this week.
Abbey for connaught again this year.
west are gone ,we were deservedly beaten today 2-1 by corrib rangers,just didn't perform ,the manager dropped a couple of very good players who weren't trainin and it backfired!

Following the Connacht Cup, Westport United would surely be kicking themselves. With what is left in the competition, Westport would have had a great chance of winning the competition on their day:( .
Give it up Thunderblaster, Mervue Utd and Athenry would both wipe the floor with Westport. They had their day in the limelight 2 years ago. Im afraid that is the last you will hear of Westport....Good spot for a weekend away though if thats any consolation??
Results from today
Mervue 1-2 Corrib Rangers
Ballinasloe Town 0-2 Athenry
Looks like Sligo/Galway in both semis

Keep your day job son. Comedy is not your strongpoint.
Mervue beaten by Corrib Rangers who in the last year have played Westport twice (Winning one each - very tight games) - so I don't think your 'off the cuff' analysis counts for much.
What are you basing it on? You're fantasies?
i wouldnt say any side would wipe the floor with westport as they are a good footballing side, that have proven their quality.
In relation to Mervue , yesterdays result was a big suprise as nine time out of ten mervue would have no problem in brushing corrib rangers aside. Rangers done very well last year under previous management ;) , but have fallen away this season and were in trouble until recent results. As much as i hate to say it Mervue are one of the best sides around although there record of getting out of galway in the last few years is pretty awful in the FAI, which a lot of people cant understand.
In my experience Athenry have a good record against any mayo side we've faced , win lose or draw the football is always good from both teams and we are more than a match for any side.
I Think Athenry Will Win It Now,great Result Yesterday,they've A Tough One Against Abbey But U Can Be Rest Assured The Winners Will Come Out Of That Semi Final!
Even Though I Would Love To See Corrib Rangers Win It!
Going for an Abbey United V Corrib Rangers final.
With the Connaught Cup down to the last 4, pleased to see that it generates so much interest. Would anyone mind if I ask does any one have a full list of previous finals. Have a hobby of collecting records on Junior/Intermediate Leagues and Cups. Been trying for ever to get details on Con Cup. Believe there have been 78 finals since 1928/29.Think I have details of 44 finals(though some need to be confirmed, and scores missing for some), think I have 11 winners only, and 1 final runners up known. Have been making contact with some people but no joy. Also looking for details re now defunct Connaught Senior League/Senior Cup. Even if you dont know all finals but know ones which your club were involved in that might help. A BIG THANKS FOR ANY INFO FORTHCOMING.
