Happy with result but Sheriff made it hard for us on half time! We were superb start of second half as Sheriff had no answer. But Sheriff could have made it 3-2 with that lob in the 2nd half!
Who do ye want in Semi Final? I wouldnt mind getting Bray in semis but would also like to get Dundalk as it was 1972 when we last met in the FAI Cup and we lost 3-0 in Longford Park!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Anyone but Derry, I wasn't at the league game in the Brandywell but the reports I got after were that they completely out played and out muscled us,
Dundalk are blowing a bit hot and cold at the moment so it may be a good time to play them
Bray hard to say who would win that game
Cork imo aren't great but Cousins seems to think they are deadly

If you have any hope of progression, you'd better pray for Derry at home.
I agree with Nidge, failing that, we just beat Bray at home a few weeks ago, so they'd not be anything to fear either. we've no hope at all against Dundalk or Cork, unless at home and with a whole lot of luck.
Just considered the absolute carnage if we ended up making the final and playing Dundalk in the Aviva.. No sleep tonight.
Derry are muck but McEleney and Timlin are as good as any player in this league. If Derry are even playing half-decent those two are capable of beating anyone. Problem is Hutton's not a very good coach.
Bray at home no question
Totally agree, I really wouldn't want to get drawn against Bray who've we've taken 9 points off this season without conceding a goal. We wouldn't have a hope of progression there.
Derry
beat Galway so did Longford,
lost to Dundalk so did Longford,
drew with Sligo so did Longford,
beat Drogheda so did Longford,
beat Sligo Longford drew
drew with Shamrock rovers Longford lost,
drew with Bray Longford won,
beat Limerick Longford drew,
lost to Dundalk so did Longford,
lost to Shamrock rovers so did Longford,
drew with Sligo Longford lost,
drew with Drogheda Longford won
drew with Limerick Longford won
beat Saint Pats Longford lost
over those same games they got 21 points Longford got 19, if they are MUCK what does that make us
yes the league position doesn't lie but I wouldn't be thinking it will be a handy semi final
I really hope you get Bray and get beat now.
There is no handy semi final, we're **** too.
We've had just about the kindest draw anyone could ever have dreamt of so far. Bray/Derry are the weaker clubs left in the draw excluding ourselves so of course we want one of them. If we make a final, you'd then want to play anyone but Dundalk. Playing them on a huge pitch would result in us being embarrassed more than likely.
I'm pretty happy we made it this far, anything else will be a bonus, but I would be bitterly disappointed, if we draw Derry/Bray and didn't make a final in the end.

You seem to be in our section more than the harps one these days. Shall I send you out a supporters club membership form nidge?

Has it's moments in fairness. But you'll get that when you have a decent number of people on there.
You both need to up your game chaps, this is cat.
In fairness. I've only got one argument to stick to.
If anyone is thinking of having a bet on the semi final here are the best prices afaik
Longford are 20/1 to beat Dundalk with Corals, a draw is 15/2 with Paddy Power, Dundalk are 1/5 on Betfair
Can I place a bet on everyone just having a good time? #ClassicSimpsons
That's about the only thing I'd bet on as long as they look after Marty at the shop. That or Dundalk -2 or -3. We got our bit of good fortune against them the last time.
Went up to Saratoga, where my horse naturally won.
