2023 Leinster Senior Cup

Rovers still without a win this season in a competitive game I think

[sbgawa]

very young Rovers side but Bray looked decent i thought and deserved the win.
Bitterly cold as usual , decent crowd around a 1000 id say but im not used to estimating crowds in bray

Ive such grá for the LSC, its slapdash way of being run part of the charm so id be a little bit disappointed not to go a mix of seniors and development players at a semi-final and on. For a side that could win a league and Cup double, maybe League Cup, well the LSC, presidents trophy and if there is a cross-border playoff comp, it is a serious haul even if a couple of the main trophies are missed out on.

They beat UCD 4-1 away in the previous round of the LSC

Massive win for us and a suitable ansewer to the people saying we havent started well.

Didn't Rovers do exactly this? Sean Gannon, Simon Power, Darragh Nugent, Justin Ferijaz and Liam Burt all started.

I dont think even 1 of them has started a game this season (actually Nugent might have)
Power went off injured after 10 minutes, feel sorry for him he looks good but is made of glass.

Massive crowd for a LSL cup, which if we are being honest is little more than a competitive friendly. Extratime.ie has it done as 500 estimate.

Was it all Rovers or did Bray bring a big crowd too?

They're still all classed as senior players though.

Apparently people in the UK and Europe don’t respect the League of Ireland because of the Leinster FA's organisation of the Leinster Senior Cup. Great stuff to see there’s apparently such a huge international audience in the LSC, hopefully the fixture organisation can get better so the Europeans can get back to not knowing the competition exists

It is utter nonsense. Is the Leinster Senior Cup fairing better apart from the Dundalk v Shels saga?

I was at the game in Jackman Park.

Awful night weather wise, so I was delighted to see a small crowd because the fat controllers from the MFA were charging lads a tenner in the gate to a Mickey Mouse competition that means nothing outside of Cork.

Even if they added the winners of each top flight junior league it would give make it some bit provincial, but right now the only clubs not from Cork in the competition are Waterford and Treaty.

[trevy]

Cork City beat Waterford 2-1 last night in awful weather conditions in Ozier Park in Waterford. Cork had their keeper sent off in first half but won it with a late goal. I heard 150 to 200 there.

[legendz]

The whole playing games in Jackman Park and Ozier Park is ridiculous. The Munster LoI clubs could arrange a Munster League Cup that could be more worthwhile. If it fails, it fails. If it was a hit, Connacht and Ulster might suit. In the absence of the League Cup, regional league cups might have a place in the first half of the season.
