Keep enjoying it before yee finally go out of existance.

As for the draw, a bit dissapointed we didnt get a nice away draw.
At least its a team we havent played in a while, would rather to have Athlone Away cause ive never been in the new ground, St Mel's the memorys.

Nice draw for Tralee if they can get past Tolka.Have alot of their squad coming back from injury and would fancy their chances against Limerick

**Martinho II** · 18/05/2010, 5:22 PM

heard our game against waterford utd has being scheduled for the friday night..

**bennocelt** · 21/05/2010, 9:09 AM

I have done Dundalk at 14/1 to win it, a decent price for what is technically a top 5 team, and hard to beat at home at least...........
Also did Derry (20) and Waterford (25) - both good teams and depending on the draw should go far.

Anyone know the exact dates yet?

Sorry, don't mean to burst your bubble here but, at the minute, I would have Limerick down as a better side than Waterford.
If ye got a draw out of it I would be amazed.

**realcelt** · 21/05/2010, 10:09 AM

The Tralee side that played Waterford was no where near their first team although I would agree that Limerick would b fancied but if Tralee have full squad available they would not b one bit afraid of them and would think they have a chance!

Glenville v Bohs fixed for Richmond Park on Sunday 6th at 3pm

**Riddickcule** · 21/05/2010, 9:19 PM

Can't wait to see the final being played in Lansdowne. I just hope the finalists are big clubs or else the league will once again look shambolic.

**stann** · 22/05/2010, 10:00 AM

Am intrigued to know how the League will look shambolic for something that happens in the Cup.

I hope it's Monaghan v Mervue*

* We'll crash out to Longford. Again

**pineapple stu** · 22/05/2010, 10:02 AM

Yep. Sides like Bray shouldn't be allowed to enter the Cup at all. Just in case.

Crumlin are a very decent outfit, probably a better side than most A league (and a few first division maybe) sides to be honest. They played some very attractive football in Bonagee and although Bonagee ended the game with 10 men and missed a penalty, they had young Marty McGinty in nets to thank for them still being in the cup.

The game is today at 2pm alright.

I believe Crumlin have applied for League status?,sun spliiting the trees so it should be a cracker.

Tolka 3-0 Tralee Dynamoes

**Sam_Heggy** · 23/05/2010, 5:44 PM

Crumlin 1 - 0 Bonagee

Crumlin with a "controversial" penalty after 85 minutes from what I hear.

The defender was a fraction late with a tackle where he clipped the attacker who went down,I've seen them given by some refs and not by others-it was one of those and not really that controversial to be honest.
