Id feel more confident if it was away from home to be honest but we are there and looking forward to it.we lost to Harps at home in a semi final on a Sunday afternoon about 10 seasons ago if i remember correctly.
Cork or Derry at home
Sunday 26th
Id feel more confident if it was away from home to be honest but we are there and looking forward to it.we lost to Harps at home in a semi final on a Sunday afternoon about 10 seasons ago if i remember correctly.
thats right - there was a massive crowd down ~7000 in the ****ing rain
was it minogue who scored for them or is my mind playing tricks on me
more water!
Speakie and Donal O Brien got the goals that day - they're here:

Class feature here from the cup meeting the year before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-RDUWa7Lcc
That was my first ever visit to Terryland and to Galway and great craic it was too. I remember meeting the 3 Barbados lads in the Alley and they were dead sound. Lavine told me he would score a hat-trick at Finn Park in the replay.
He didn't though.

We are potentially 90 minutes away from Europe.
If Bohs beat Pat's and reach the Final whilst also winning the League, then all we have to do is win our semi final and we will be in Europe. Bohs can't represent Ireland in 2 different European competitiions.
Mind you, that rule is changing next season which means beaten Finalists won't qualify for European.
Wishful thinking. We need to beat Cork in the League on Friday first.
Nobody knows us, we don't care
Lads Its a good draw
we have a great chance of beating either team
we could have beaten derry in league cup semi only for mark gough
Promo for this game has to start this week if we want 4,000+ people in terryland the whole of galway city and county must be made aware of this game and its importance
Lets hope the players will forget about the cup till for next 3 weeks as we have cork on fri,sligo sat week, and bray the week after as we need a min of 7 points to have a chance to stay up
Derry won 5-3 on pens tonight.
Galway United v Derry City at Terryland Park Sunday 26th October; 3.15pm.
with the aid of mark gough
Play like we did in League cup we have a great chance we were on top till they got the peno and went 1up
They should be a good crowd at this game as Danial Nick and the rest of office have spent the deloping a promotion plan for this game we should aim for 4,000 utd fans at this game and derry want 1000 tickets also
Note for anyone who wants a ticket for new stand buy your ticket early as first 1500 tickets sold will be offered a seat in the new stand

I was thinking today is there any chance the semi could be played Sunday Evening or night?Does it have to be afternoon?It will take away alot of the atmosphere i think having it on Sunday afternoon.I suppose it has to be on at that time for t.v etc but its a shame.Terryland has been a lively place the last few home games in both stands and think will be a great atmosphere for this game.I just remember the Semi Final vs Harps in '98 on a Sunday afternoon was nowhwere near as good for atmosphere as the quarter final was vs Pats at night.Getting tickets tomorrow.
They should try and move it back to the evening as itclashes with the county hurling final and the televised game between Chelsea and Liverpool, as far as I know. It is bad enough it is on the SUnday of a Bank Hoiliday, but those additional things will also hit the crowd figure
"Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins."
"Homer Simpson, smiling politely."
i suppose the atmopshere would be better in the floodlights but id say there is no chance of it changing once rte decided on the schedule
more water!
Club can do nothing about RTE calls the tune. Looks like the county final wont be on that sunday as Loughrea game is called off due to the death of Vinny & Johnny Mahers Mother.
We are the Galway Boys Stand up and make some noise"
Great to see the staff in Zhivago know exactly what they are selling.The book of tickets is labelled "F.A Cup Tickets".
