Dundalk 2 - 0 Sporting
Pats 2 up 68' Williams
UCD 0-1 Rovers FT.
I had money on Rovers. I feel dirty.
Overall, Harps were better team but just cant score at the moment. Derry's centre halves pretty impressive tonight. Around 50 or so Harps fans at the game.

If ever harps had a chance to beat Derry then it was tonight.
Derry only had two regulars starting with Mark Farren being one of them and he has only been getting on as a late sub for a while now.Probably the youngest ever team Derry have used at the Brandywell with 16-17-18 and 19 yr olds making up most of the team.
Harps dominated the 2nd half but young keeper Ferry had only one save to make as the defence stopped most attacks before it got as far as him.Mc Hugh had a great chance but is a man with no form or confidence.
Wasn't a bad crowd there (not the 1,500 guessed above). I havn't been told but I would guess no more than 700 with maybe 70 harps fans scattered around different parts of the ground.
Thats ten wins in a row now for Derry and it's on to Cork on friday which will be a real test of this team.
Does anyone know when the draw is for the next round and if it's still regionalised?
So if you think Bohs are big read this. http://www.astronomy.ie/perpespective.html
Dunno when the draw is, but it isn't regionalised.

Ya Quarter-Finals up next so i wouldn't think it'll be regionalised for the next round.
Does the gate money for the League Cup work the same as the FAI Cup, split between both teams?
The draw hasn't happened yet Dan, and its not regionalised. We've a 6/1 chance of getting them so it wouldn't surprise me

6/1 means 1 chance in 7.
Same as 1/1 means one chance in two.
I had a dream last night that we got UCD in the next round...but they're out so we must be getting Shams...or else my dream was wrong, I'm usually right though
And yes I know we're not through this round yet...
Life without Rovers, it makes no sense...it's a heartache...nothing but a fools game. S.R.F.C.
