It sure would. With our disciplinary record I'm not sure a game against Derry is what we need. We'd probably struggle to finish with the requisite 7 players.

Crazy stat with still a few minutes left last night.

Disgusted to hear what a small number of Shels "fans" were chanting in Inchicore. Baffling considering the lovely tribute they paid to Joe de Hoop.

Possibly, it's hard to say without seeing it again but you can see why the ref booked him. Celebration was tame enough by his standards just made his way over to where the Town fans were and stood there showing us his number and soaking up the bit of abuse he got. Like I said above nobody was overly wound up by it, it just seemed a bit pointless. Maybe he just doesn't like red and black stripes.

Something like "all the way to Poland to get a heart attack" about the Pats fan that died over there. Real classy stuff.

Harps are through, that's the main thing. Completely dominant first 30 minutes, combined with a lacklusture Wexford performance was enough to see us through. Missed a host of chances to kill the game off before half-time though which was a bit frustrating. Two years in a row in the quarter final, would be nice to go one step further this time around.

Iv'e a feeling that we will draw Harps at home in 1/4's for some reason!

Wouldn't complain to be honest. We're after a relatively big draw and a few quid, anything else is a bonus.

Bohs 1 up not long left

Another Cork City game in Dublin and another rare trip for the opposition physio onto the field of play. Daniel Byrne taken off in agony, presumably having slipped on a skateboard or something.

Well it definitely wouldn't have been the result of over physical play from Cork. No siree.

To be fair there was nothing in that challenge.

Us, over physical?
Our last two trips to Dublin before tonight resulted in two of our players being taken away by ambulance.

Neither was the result of the opposition (I assume you mean Lehane in Tallaght and Lenihan in Dalymount). I didn't say Cork were over-physical, was just having a crack at CityRebel and his notions that Cork players are too polite to put in a tough challenge.
