    The most important thing is a home draw. No one really wants additional travel in the business end of the season.

    Odds on Dundalk for the Double must be shortening.
    Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.

    Obviously would've much preferred a home draw but it wasn't to be. Definitely will be a tough game. We've done well up there recently so hopefully that can continue when this game is played.

    I don't think there's any straight forward ties there. Even the most optimistic Sligo fan might say they have no chance, but anything can happen in a one-off game

    I wonder what odds would Paddy Power or Boylesport offer on the four home teams winning?

    I am made up with this draw. I have a feeling that we will be playing Sheriff YC. Would fancy them more than Athlone's side. We beat Sheriff in Clontarf Astro in the LSC semi final last season and they made it a real tough game. I cant remember if they took the lead or not?
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    No we took the lead but yeah the should have hammered us only for Deans and Bennion. However that was the LSC and a reserve team this is the big cup!

    I remember that match too, the way I remember it was that, our starting 11 were a mixture of kids and first teamers, Lee Higgins and Gorman in center mid, we came at them fast, Sean Russell delivered 2 great balls into the box, Gorman and Shannon both scored, we were holding our own until half time, they scored early in the 2nd half, Gorman went off with a fractured scull,
    they threw everything at us, we dropped back deeper and deeper, (as Outspoken said) Deans and Bennion saved us, but it has to be said the kids stood up to the pressure too

    I know where Russell is, but anyone know where Higgins is/went, I liked him

    That blew up the night of the game but nothing from officialdom. Maybe he was dropping the kids off at the pool, nobody knew it and they locked the dressing room door.

    I was locked in the office once, when I went to leave my stepping out into the corridor set off a silent alarm (motion sensor) and I was already in the car on the way home when the cops arrived!

    I never meant to question the reliability of the source just found the story itself bizarre but in a funny way.

    Sheriff YC to play Longford in the Quarter Final after beating Athlone on penalties.

    We shouldn't take them for granted but we've a great chance of getting into the semi final. We'd probably lose to whoever we play then but at least we should make a bit of money out of it.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    Sheriff were the better team both times against Athlone, from what I've been told. With a few more weeks of gametime behind them, they should be capable of challenging Longford.

    Athlone are chronic though in fairness. Still I'm sure it won't be easy.

    Athlone are absolutely terrible though. Lately, they've been as bad an Athlone team as there's been in years.
