Derry V Shelbourne
Dundalk V St Pats
Both games to be televised I think.
Hard to call the first game, Derry have been all over the shop lately but you would have to think that home advantage should swing it. What's the injury news? Is Macca fit? Patterson? Greacon?
Second game has to be nailed on Pats win.
Im going for a Muckers-Pats final.
6/1 to win today. After the 'performances' we have been putting in recently, we should be 60/1. Ah well, just about to head off to Dundalk. Come on the town.
I've got Pats backed (-1).
Predict a Shels-Pats final. Hope it's Derry-Pats though for the sake of the crowd.
Put a whopping €1.35 on Faherty to score first and Pats to win 2-0. Might put a bet on the other game, have a sneaky feeling for Shels. Mathews has a great record in the cup.
Edit: Gone with Shels Draw No Bet
I see RTÉ's stream is island-of-Ireland-only. Anyone aware of any other streams?
Lads, I'm in England and have just realised that the games are not on the RTE player. Anybody got any idea where I could watch Derry-Shels online?
I want a Shels-Dundalk final just because I think that's more winnable. However... if we beat Pat's in the final, as unlikely as that may be, that would make me oh so happy!
It should be live on www.aertv.ie as well if ya proxy that bad boy
Cheers Nigel, is it reliable do ya reckon? Be absolutely gutted if I missed it.
That stream's not started yet, Nigel... :/ Any others?
No RTE Worldwide streaming. :mad:
Come on!
Casso you ledgebag!
Can't see any other streams, sorry lads.
Can only see this game going one way from here.
RTÉ's stream works outside of Ireland here: http://www.rte.ie/player/gb/live/10/
No idea why Greacan's goal was disallowed. Greacan's arm was out - fair enough - but it posed no impediment to Bennion, despite the imaginary facial pain he seemed to be experiencing afterwards.
Anyway, 1-1 now!
well he handled the ball before it went in! thats after the foul
The foul was against McDaid, he ran straight into Bennion.
Derry 1 - 1 Shels reply Wednesday
I couldn't get RTE's feed for the last 20 mins of our game. Anybody else have the same problem? where are people watching d other game?
Nice wan. Another goal to make it safe would be nice.:)Quote:

Easy win for us today despite being fairly poor. I'm hoping for a Derry win on Wednesday because they are an awful side, probably the second worst side in the premier division after Dundalk. This should be our year tho.
Poor game in the randywell yesterday.
Why the fook we reverted to hoofing after clearly displaying we were better with the ball on the ground, I will never know.
Draw was fair I guess but I feel its advantage Shels now.
Shouldn't that be "This should be our year tho" (take 51) ?;) PS you should know that Pats fans must always be pessimistic about the FAI Cup, no matter who you are playing.Quote:

Funny enough most seasons I generally hope Pats win the Cup (once Bohs exit) if for no other reason than to end the long wait. Unfortunately this year that is, of course, tempered by the realisation a Pats win will get shams into europe :mad:Quote:

Fair enough, Pats for the double or nothing.Quote:

If anybody knew where the games might be available from it would be really appreciated.

Here it is from Ireland.
Derek Foran was not very happy after Dundalk's loss to St.Pats on Sunday.If only we had a team full of lads with the attitude that he has.
Speaking to the Dundalk Democrat following the loss to St.Patricks Athletic he said the defeat was :
