QuoteHmm, tough enough game I'd expect them to pick up in form with the new management team but hopefully since we're at home we can get through.
Draw is made and we got the Harps!

Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
I think it's a great draw as in we should beat them at home but not the crowd puller we might have hoped for.
its a bit like when we met waterford in flancare last season.. this cup game will bring back memories of our last cup meeting in 99/00 season when we drew 2-2 in flancare and lost 7-1 away..
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
As we know, there's no rain or high winds during the summer seasons, so there's zero chance of the Finn Park being in as bad a condition as it was for that game (iirc the condition of the pitch - that's the excuse I remember anyway!)Originally Posted by Martinho II
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
Decent draw, who cares about crowd draws, I just want to win a few rounds
The club can always use all the money it can get so in that way a money spinning tie would always be welcome. But we'll save that for the next few rounds!

further we get the more money we get, screw getting 1k at a game and loosing, cup runs always good for getting people interested again anyway
Not necessarily, if you were at home to a smaller club and advanced then got UCD away in the next round you wouldn't make anything. But in general I agree that we want to go as far we can.

I thought when Waterford came out of the hat oh no not again but thankfully we were spared a trip to the rsc..
it was confirmed at the supporters club meeting tonight that harps game will be on friday night at eight pm the week after next week! the reason its a friday is because the macedonia ireland game is on the followin nite!

We actually had a pretty good crowd going had it been the Sat. There was 2 bus loads organised that I know of, both are struggling to fill up for the Fri now.
would the sunday not have made for sense in this case, friday night games have never been any use for us crowd wise, too much of the crowd dont work in longford nd its hard for people to get to friday night game, its very easy to get to sunday games!
I'm sure the GAAAAAAAA season will be getting going by that stage so Sunday game might actually be worse than a Friday night game.
ye if Longford beat Laois they be playing Dubs in Croker so that wouldnt work.

ok, sorry, my bad, dont be keeping an eye really on the way the gaa falls!
Keith Gillespie the latest name to go onto the long term injury list, he's pulled a hamstring according to extratime.
So that's lee, dowling, Brady, Gillespie,walsh,Morley and Ozzie all with injuries, good news is Ozzie isn't that fat away from been ok and will have another fitness test before Harps game.
Dowling is close to coming back apparrently while I don't think Brady and Walsh will bs out for too long but still an awful patch of injuries to go through.
Dowling will play I'd say.
