EA Sports League Cup 2011

I'll take Cork, based on the fact that I think we'd have a decent crowd whether it would be home or away and that it's our easiest option; I want to get into the final.
I was in Tolka for the QF against Shels and I have to say, Shels second string outplayed a very decent Sligo team for almost 70 minutes. Based on that, I wouldn't say no to Sligo at home. I want to avoid Derry, please God.

Wexford Youths thrashed Derry in the FAI Cup so surely you should want them

Pike fan was claiming a few weeks ago that Maher and Bobby Ryan where signing for Pike. Maher working in Limerick supposedly so he could be signing for us.

For personal reasons Sligo away.

For purely practical reasons has to be Cork away or anyone at home (preferably Cork away)

This game will fall in the middle of Waterford away and Finn Harps away and could frankly be done without!

The thought of the lads travelling to Waterford Friday, Derry Tuesday, Harps Saturday is not a good one!

I'm sure travelling in a private plane now makes it easier

Draw:

Cork City V Limerick
Derry City V Sligo Rovers

Good draw for City.

**Jofspring** · 11/07/2011, 8:13 PM

Yup happy with that too. Handy trip and Cork will get a bigger attendance on the gate than if we had it in Jackman.

Ah would you not give poor Cork City your cut of the gate as well now that ye're rolling in it

Great draw for us tbf. Gamble and Behan to return in a hail of abuse. Let's roll back the years!

One of the boys involved in the club was excited for this very reason this eve!

Reckons the place will be jammed with Cork fans wanting to abuse them.

I'm not so optimistic myself but we can but hope.

**micls** · 12/07/2011, 3:36 AM

Best draw for both teams. Happy out. Can't see too much abuse for Joe, but Denis should get a fair bit. Given the amount of abuse he got while playing for us like!
