Does anyone know if there is a thread for the FAI cup.
I assume there is one somewhere.
Anybody know when the 2nd round draw takes place? :confused:

Think its 31st May
There's no thread in the LOI section. Think there's one in the Junior section
No real point in one until we find out who plays who
Does anyone know when this is going to happen? Cup weekend is 17th or 18th June so I guess it would have to be soon?
Yeah the draw is on while we play Dundalk so no1 from Mons will be able to attend.
I can't believe they have the draw on at the same time as a league game!
I hope our clubs dont get in trouble for having no one there!
It was probably done to make sure Maxi will be in Oriel and not at the draw...
Is he still a steward?
Fire safety officer wasn't he?Quote:

Details of the draw are here
I fancy a nice trip north to Fanad.
his friends organised it at the club bar without the club knowing what it was for.Quote:

Probably recorded and shown 'as live'.Quote:

And the excitement starts to build. Who do you want to draw?
Personally I'd love to see Wexford drawn away to Pats or Bohs. Potential annihilation but would be a fantastic experience and atmosphere. Plus it would be nice and handy for the Dublin based Wexford crowd.
Bring it on!
Home draw is all we want really, that said I'd love for us to draw Cork for some reason and we want to avoid bringing Rovers down incase some of the unwanted Rovers and Limerick 'fans' decide to make an appearance for the game
Trust me we feel the same way, Limerick is the last place i hope to have to travel to for a game for the forseeable future! Closely followed by Dundalk!Quote:

Koh
Shels please! Home or Away, don't mind.
Any game that won't be played on the Friday night for me
Shels would be ggggreeeeaaattt!
Galway please!
Anyone **** at home or an away game on a Saturday.
I reckon we'll get Drogs or Pats away, hoping for a crap below us so we can do something decent in this cup for once :p
Home to no-hopers, sorry non-leaguers, as it provides a good chance for a 5-6+ goalfest. Good warm up for playing the harder sides later on.Quote:

Shels in Tolka. Again.
Totty at the draw, nice one. Sean Connor front row. Why no disco pants?
Forgot about that! Starting now on 1
Longford v Celbridge Town
Fanad United v St John Bosco
Dundalk v Athlone
Limerick 37 v Wexford Youths
Phoenix v St Pat's
Salthill Devon v UCD
Bray v St Mochta's

Tolka Rovers v Waterford United
Derry City v Monaghan United
Galway United v Finn Harps
Douglas Hall v Cobh Ramblers
Shamrock Rovers v Sligo Rovers
Drogheda United v Bohemians
Malahide United v Cherry Orchard
Shelbourne v Cork City
Highlights -
Could Celbridge cause a shock?
The meeting of the U-21 champions of the last three seasons (Salthill v UCD)
Drogs v Bohs
Rovers v Rovers
Interesting draw. One of the best I remember in recent years actually.
Galway v Finn Harps
Limerick v Wexford
Rovers v Rovers
Drogs v Bohs
Shels v Cork City
Dundalk v Athlone
Kildare v Kilkenny
Derry v Monaghan
Games of note
Drogs vs Bohs by far tie of the round. Finn Harps have the best chance of an upset.
Do Salthill only have U-21 players?
