In fairness, all he said was that things have changed to an extent. And they have.

Nothing has changed as far as im concerned anyway, I wouldnt look at a league table for cup games. That goes out the window, thankfully for small teams like ourselves. Cups are one off games which rises players even if they are doing sh!t at the present time. Thats what makes the cup so exciting and unpredictable aswel

What's everyone's thoughts on the upcoming game? I think we have every reason to be confident and might go on a goalscoring spree and score twice at least.

2 - 0 up after 15 mins. Easy, Easy. Finishes 2-2 and we loose next Tuesday in a wet Hogan Park.

Goalscoring? What's that then?

**lefty** · 22/08/2006, 1:05 PM

2-0 win both goals scored in the second half with the first half being a close affair

Gary Dicker's suspended for it.

Shouldn't be too much of a loss. Finn will play CM and Paul Byrne will slot in upfront.

Or Shortall in DC and McDonnell into centre-mid. Or just Hurley into centre-mid...

So many options! Not used to this...

Only winning 3-0 against a team with an outfield player in goal illustrates how crap we are at scoring goals

The one time we might actually score (although on recent form, I wouldn't be shocked if we didn't!), and you'd miss it.

I think once we avoid Shels/Derry and Sligo away we will advance to the semis.

The year we won the Cup, 1984, we drew Sligo ( who were then the Cup holders) away in the First Round.
We were losing 3-1 with ten minutes left and managed to scrape a 3-3 draw.
We won the replay 5-0 and never looked back
