Not to sure about the dates being honest, We have Rovers left to play, which was supposed to be during the week but it was put back because of there FAI Cup Semi Final match this coming Friday, and AFAIK it still has not been rearranged yet (most likely to be the middle of next week)

So we could maybe get.......(i think ?)

Cork City Vs. Bray Wanderers
Bray Wanderers Vs. Drogheda Utd or Monaghan Utd
Derry City or Dundalk Vs Bray Wanderers
Bray Wanderers Vs Derry City or Dundalk

Monaghan or Dundalk at home would be our prefered draw i reckon but knowing our luck well get Cork or Derry away !

Pretty sure we cannot qualify now - Sligo, Dundalk, Derry and Drogheda are the 4 qualifiers from the Northern Section, probably in that order.
The draw seems a bit unbalanced - the Northern and Dublin sections appeared the strongest (in aggregate - there are of course some very strong teams in the other sections) and have been drawn against each other.

**pineapple stu** · 27/10/2006, 12:40 PM

Dublin section is the strongest, with the Southern section probably after that. Certainly, they've provided all the last five or so winners, and a couple of runners-up too. Only team I recall doing well in the northern section of late was Harps getting to the semis last year.

I think Cork are the only really strong team in the Southern section, they've been well clear all year. They'll be contenders to win but I doubt anyone else in the section will.

**pineapple stu** · 27/10/2006, 1:27 PM

True, but it's still better than the northern section. Bar Harps last year, I don't recall any of them making an impression in prior years.

Ssh, we'll be playing one of them in the last 16. We don't want an article on whatever team's website like this.

You're three points behind us with one game left for you and us having played all our games, as far as I can see. But our goal difference is a lot better, so I don't think you'll be winning the group. If Shels win their last game, the best you can hope for is third, and a trip north...

**Roo69** · 31/10/2006, 10:33 AM

The top two places in the Dublin section are still open, with Shelbourne going top if they beat Bohemians – that match was controversially called off today, and the outcome is not yet clear, as there is little time left for a re-fixture.

Dundalk are currently in second spot in the Northern section, but can be overtaken by Drogheda if they beat leaders Sligo Rovers at home tomorrow night. Even a draw there would see Derry drop to fourth.

So unless Drogheda win, Bray's next fixture will be in Oriel Park.

Round of 16 draw:
Cork City v Shamrock Rovers
Sligo Rovers v Athlone Town
Winner Dublin section v 4th Northern section
Kildare County v Cobh Ramblers
Kerry League v Salthill Devon
Runner-up Northern section v Bray Wanderers
Runner-up Dublin section v 3rd Northern section
Galway United v Limerick

Games to be played 4-7 November

On previous form, will Shels not be given a 3-0 win v Bohs, as I understand that Bohs refused to fulfill the fixture?

**sligoman** · 05/11/2006, 3:55 PM

We lost to Drogheda 3-0 yesterday.
