The build up is on, 7 Cork teams heading up to the slums of Dublin on Sunday.

I wonder does anyone know anything about Bangor who play Rockmount? What about Greenhills boys against Avondale? I assume Dale win this one easy?

Can't wait.

I'll disregard your juvenile jibe about the slums. Bangor are a very young team, much changed from the team that won LSL Senior division last season. Many have come throught their second team which won Major Sat last season. After a bad start, have won their last 6 league matches.

Greenhills have been in the doldrums for many years just about managing to survive in the 4th division last season. Have caused a few shocks to get this far, so their must have improved a bit. Pitch could be a leveller.

Douglas Hall could be in for a tough game. Liffey Wanderers have some decent players, just promoted to 3rd division LSL, can at times be a little over-physical, if you know what I mean. The referee will earn his few bob.

Nice one, did I say slums? I meant slaubrious suburbs, so sorry

.

So Bangor won the top LSL league last season? They must be very strong indeed. It's great to hear of teams bringing through younger lads and ressie players. Shows a good club ethic. Hopefully Mount can nick it though.

Douglas Hall are not playing as well as they did last season, so maybe they will find it tough.

Thanks for all the info.

Any tip on where Bangor play? I'll be approaching from the capital...in a car..do I go as far as the big red cow?

Any help appreciated.

Bangor 1-0 Rockmount. Dubious free awarded, dispatched brilliantly with ten left. Other than that two very evenly matched teams should have got a replay to battle again. Don't think Celtic will complain, annoys me to say it but Dublin officials win the day again. This has to stop some time soon, Ringmahon were "done" as well by home town officials - apparently.

That is not to take from Bangor who didn't pick the officials, they showed us supreme hospitality every single one of em. A joy to be in their company and I sincerely hope they go on and win it.

Avondale won easy 5-0 I think. Ringmahon lost 2-1 I believe also.

What ? Surely you'd want a Cork team to go on and win it?
Dale 2 up after 20 were never troubled, day spoiled when Hughesy was stupidly sent off near the end.

I've neer been treated to the hospitality shown to us yesterday by any of the Cork clubs, food, beer, craic, lifts to the game from the local, lifts back as well. We are away to Castleview on Saturday and if I receive the same treatment then I will wish they win the comp in the future and likewise when we next play Avondale I'll see if the craic is the same.....

It was a really enjoyable day out and showed me again how much grass roots football has to offer.

Well done Avondale, good display I hear, I hope they go on and win the FAI Senior cup now..

Can anyone tell me if Gary McCormack is still playing with Tolka Rovers or if
he is still playing at all. Former Ballymun Utd and Athlone Town center half.

Bonagee 3 Ashtown Villa 4.

A nice win for Villa to get on the road. Bonagee must have one of the nicest intermediate set-ups in the country, with a small covered stand, two all weather pitches and one of the best playing surfaces in Donegal. Bonagee were unlucky with a disallowed goal and an open header put wide near the end, but Villa had a second strength team out and always looked stronger.

Any word on when the draw takes place for the next round? 10 or 11 Dublin teams, 4 or 5 from Cork (depending on the result between Loughshinny and Carrigaline) and just one Donegal rep left ...

It may well be true because of the early kick off, but he was deffo at the Rockmount game, stood beside him for a while.

You forgot about Carrigaline Utd. They drew 1-1 away to Loughshinny from Dublin. Great result for them.

Naw, too busy telling him that Beech is ready for the Irish senior team. He concurred.

Not with Tolka anymore. Heard he went back to Ballymun, but not in first team.
