Does anyone know what the story is for the next round in terms of who gets home advantage? Another draw for that?

Also, Limerick are the only team left outside of the First Division. Is a continued presence in this tournament a sign of improvement or a disadvantage? Depending on how the First Division looks a few months from now, Pat Scully's charges might not want to be too distracted.

I think if the squad is used right then it's big enough to handle this also. If we progress it will be seen as a bonus but other than that I don't think many will be too disappointed to see Scully give some fringe players games even at the risk of being knocked out.Quote:

Pat Scully has been given more than enough resources to compete on all fronts in fairness.
Depending on the kindness of the draw, I'd like to think we'd at least be competitive.
Draw tonight on MNS,Lims please.
Dundalk or Bray away please.
Ball numbers :ball:
1: Bary Wanderers 2: Derry City 3: Drogheda United 4: Dundalk
5: Limerick 6: St Patrick's Athletic 7: Shamrock Rovers 8: Sligo Rovers.
A fix if I've ever seen one...
Sligo v Derry
Drogs v Dundalk
Pat's v Rovers
Bray v Limerick
The lads couldn't keep a straight face!
Surely if they were fixing it they would have kept the 2 Rovers, Pats and Derry apart?
I knew the early rounds were regionalised, didn't know the Quarter final would be too lol
Bray away, not too bad. Well capable of getting a result there. Of course, league standings (that is, distractions) could be very different for both clubs by the time that game comes around.
Also gives me an excuse to take the gf's advice and head down to Bray for a summers day. Happy with that.
Christ sake Stuart Byrne was sat looking into the cup when picking out the numbers!!!Quote:
