by accident I predicted our next opponents!!
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Quarter-final fixtures announced:
26th May
Longford Town v Bohemians, 7.45pm
Shamrock Rovers v Cork City, 7.45pm
27th May
Derry City v Dundalk, 7.45pm
Wexford Youths v Galway, 8pm
Seems strange (and very incovenient for me) that we'd have our game on the Tuesday; Monday is a bank holiday in the north.
Shams vs City has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch. Fair play to them for leaving it so late to call it off.
Concerns about surface water on the pitch at the CCS. Not raining at the moment so it should dry out but kick off is delayed as they try and remove the water.
Game goes ahead.

Went up to Saratoga, where my horse naturally won.
Someone might have tripped and spilled their water bottle. That is enough to cause Tallaght to be waterlogged.
Noel Haverty sent off for punching the ball clear after a Bohs player had rounded the keeper. Stupidity. Though the peno was saved tbf!

Must have been the bottles the Bohs fans were throwing at Luke Byrne on Friday night then. You'd think it would have dried up by now.
Carbonated cola m'lud.
1-0 Bohs at HT. Corcoran on 43 mins.
Town down to 9 men now. Kevin O'Connor second yellow. Still 1-0 Bohs, half an hour left.

2-0 Bohs. Corcoran again. Into injury time now.
Edit: actually Daniel Byrne not Corcoran. Not that anyone cares apart from him and his mammy

Waterlogged pitches in May.... when is the FAI going to insist on nice artificial pitches all round?
When said pitches improve to a minimum standard
Jokes aside I think the weather in some parts of the country yesterday was a fluke.
I think Tallaght would have been OK if the Ireland Under 19s weren't on it all week

Dundalk make 11 changes to the team that beat Sligo 3-0.
Current score Derry 0 - Dundalk 2
Finished 2-1 to Dundalk. Derry came back in the game in the second half.
I am led to believe this was certainly the case
Nah! Wide open grounds lashing rain and rovers fans can carry their umbrellas in, need to protect the gear from potential sprinklers otherwise
1 all in Wexford v Galway after Extra time
Wexford won 4-3 on penos
Would be a nice draw for a trip to the sunny south east, but of course home draw for a cup semi would be preferable
