I'm sure the people who run the club were furious about this.

Town knock Sligo out for the second year in a row. Great 1-0 win in Sligo.

Only another few months of Lyttle thankfully

**ToberonaTornado** · 12/08/2018, 1:49 AM

the 2nd round draw is on Monday evening i believe.
Anyone know at what time or maybe live on SR or online?

Presumably on Soccer Republic?

Though it could be Fran Gavin taking a household bucket into RTÉ radio again; you never know

Cork on the hunt to better Derry's score from yesterday; 2-0 up after 8 minutes against Home Farm

**Philosophizer** · 12/08/2018, 12:53 PM

Cork 4-1 up now at Home Farm. Would like to see Cork give them a right battering!

**patrickccfc** · 12/08/2018, 1:05 PM

5-1 at half time. Home Farm scored from half way apparently. Would love if we kicked on and got another couple in the second half

Cork another team who may feel they have a point to prove and mightn't let up.

That said, not the best way to prepare for the return game against Rosenborg. The FAI really have turned the Cup into a bit of a farce with games like this

Limerick sent as full a team as they could up to Donegal this morning. Cockhill will never have a better chance against a PD side.

Only 1 player who started Thursday started. Subs that came on were u19s. It's not ideal, but we got lucky getting a non league team. Would have been a much bigger issue if we'd gotten a tougher draw

**pineapple stu** · 12/08/2018, 1:59 PM

Jayz. And ye were still 5-1 up at half-time! Sounds like it could have been a proper rout otherwise

**micls** · 12/08/2018, 2:04 PM

Don't get me wrong, it was still a very strong team. We're lucky to have good depth at the moment. Benno, Aaron Barry, Dunleavy, Morrisey, McNamee and Sadlier all started. Add in the likes of McCarthy, Coughlan, O Hanlon etc and it was a good team.

Lost a bit of shape in the second half when game was over and Morrisey, and McNamee came off. Good to see the youngsters get a run out though.

Lovely set up at home harm and very very welcoming.

**osarusan** · 12/08/2018, 3:06 PM

Cockhill Celtic 0-0 Limerick at halftime...ominous.

**NeverFeltBetter** · 12/08/2018, 3:39 PM

Looks like Limerick will be in the draw for the next round after all.

**osarusan** · 12/08/2018, 3:58 PM

Full time 2-0 Limerick

**pineapple stu** · 12/08/2018, 4:12 PM

So 8 Premier teams, 5 First Division teams and 3 non-league teams left.

I imagine most would be happy with a non-league draw in the next round (apart from those who have to get the next paycheque together maybe). Maynooth University Town v UCD sounds fun.

Dundalk v Cork would open things up for everyone else too
