town have being drawn away against tolka rovers or killester utd in the 4th round of the leinster senior cup..no dates or venue have bein confirmed as of yet.
town last played Tolka rovers in 2003 in the fai cup away when we won 4-1.Town have never met Killester Utd in any competition since we joined the league of ireland.
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
that tolka rovers game was a good day out! two very handy teams in this draw, will be a good early test for some of the younger players.
A good draw for us, wouldn't be taking either team for granted though
If god wanted us to play football in the clouds he would have put grass up there!
just to clarify i didnt mean handy as in easy, i ment both of these teams are handy as in good!
Dont know anything about killester utd tbh but if we play Tolka that could be a potential banana skin as they say but hopefully we over come it , it would be nice to go a long way in the competition

much better draw than last year, hope we get a few wins in it, it;s good for confidence if anything
heard at the game in fosters avenue that we are playing tolka rovers in the lsc. this has being fixed for wednesday week. what happens to the bohs friendly will that still go ahead? The ireland wales match is on the same nite as the bohs friendly so could effect people goin to it.

Ye I found it very strange that its on the same night as Ireland Wales , I think Bohs recently cancelled 1 of their pre-season fixtures actually I was told it was due to an unwillingness by the away team to travel but some Bohs fans reckon thats just a way of saying we dont yet have a playing squad

the bohs fans are dead right as in todays papers its sayin that bohs mightnt be able to field a team in the setanta cup. they have only four players training with them at present and had to cancel training last week due to lack of numbers.. I can see the bohs friendly not goin ahead I heard last night that due to the leinster cup match that the bohs friendly will be moved but what happened at the setanta cup launch supersedes all this..

I have said from day 1 this fixture looks dodgey and I really cant see it going ahead now , wonder will TC bother with a replacement fixture is is he happy with the games he has?

We are down to play Derry in Flancare on Thursday the 10th, i think we can safely say the bohs game won't happen, if the lsc game is wednesday the 9th we are hardly going to play Derry the day after too?

Scratch that last post, we play derry at home next thursday, killester play tolka next week in the 1st round game, they havent even played each other yet!

Derry is next Sunday, the 13th according to the Town site? Either way I think you're right the Bohs game won't be going ahead.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
Ireland v Wales is the Tuesday. NI v Scotland is Wednesday.
Derry game has been changed, its on extratime
Ok so Derry game is Thursday 10th when is the LSC game?

A couple of weeks before the start of season, killester still have to play tolka next week, we play winners of that game

Thursday is a strange one for playing Derry, it's a long journey for them to make for a friendly on a week night with their players being part time. Sunday would suit them better I'd have thought.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
If you head onto extratime right now and look at their latest post (pre season fixture list) it says the game is now on SUNDAY 13TH again with the time not yet known , confusing to say the least.

Derry site has it for thursday at 7.45 too
