Im not really bothered who gets to the final as long as its not Fingal
Sligo Rovers v Waterford United 7.35pm The Showgrounds
Sporting Fingal v Bray Wanderers 3.05 The Morton
How do people see these games turning out?
Personally, and unbiased I can se us turning over Sligo. We've only lost twice away from home all season in all competitions so our 6-1 odds with pp look to be decent enough.
I think Sporting will have to much class for Bray in the other game which would set up a Fingal v Waterford final with possibly the worst ever attendance at an FAI Cup final ever!

Here on a technicality.
I'd have to pray for a Sligo-Bray final pairing to ensure that somebody actually turns up to watch the game, but even then I'm not convinced the attendance would exceed 5-6,000.
Are both semis live on RTE ?
Yes.
Is 6,000 the max attendance for the final?
We would have to see on the day how much we would bring.
Bray could bring a large following to the final and
Sligo the same but i think Waterford would bring the most. They had a fair few in lansdowne against longford a few years ago and their is no reason why they wouldnt have roughly the same this time.
IF Sporting Fingal get to the final and the Fingal public get the cup fever then its quite possible that a Waterford V Fingal Final could have a very large turn out.
Sligo will win the cup. Other finalist? Fingal.
TO TELL THE TRUTH IS REVOLUTIONARY
The ONLY foot.ie user with a type of logic named after them!
All of this has happened before. All of it will happen again.
I reckon Sligo Rovers v Fingal in the Final. Sligo have good support in Dublin anyway. Reckon it would be a good turnout. Sligo, Waterford would probably be a sellout even tough Waterford at getting poor att. this season.
Sorry lads but what is the capcit of the final, i thought they were going to make it 12k or are they seeing who gets into the final now or is that a not correct will the final be capacity of only 6k?
Assuming the final is in Tallaght, it would make total sense for the FAI to wait to see who gets there and then follow ticket sales closely before committing itself to any capacity extension beyond the two fixed stands there. Have temporary stands teed-up, but don't commit to them unless demand is looking very strong.
Wasn't the lowest attendance in recent years the Longford v Waterford final at Lansdowne ?
Hope Waterford win.
Can see Waterford beating Sligo, it's the sort of trick the footballing Gods usually pull; beat both the reigning league and cup holders and last years runners-up, lose to a First Division team.
Given Bray's form, it's hard to see past a Fingal win there, but I reckon they might pull it out of the bag.
I'm going to go for a Waterford-Bray cup final.
Hopefully a Sligo/Fungal final.
Who Cares?!
Going on form, it'll be Sligo and Fingal and I reckon Sligo would win that.
Sligo are on a great run at the moment and they're beating everybody. Waterford have hit a dip and I don't see them improving for this one. We are doing crap and I can easily see Sporting beating us by two or three.

Don't be slagging attendances people......
It will be a 1st Division final with 25,000 people paying in to watch a moved final in Croke Park.
But seriously I reckon a Sligo - Fingal final. And a great match to boot.
A sligo v Fingal final with Sligo to win it
