I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
Thunderblaster does know his stuff but I don't think there is anyone on this site who can really offer a truly informed opinion on the merits of individual teams. They're based all over the country and I doubt anyone has seen each of them play, merely they really rely on second hand info from other posters.
Still if anyone is likely to have an informed opinion as far as this site goes, then I'd reckon it's TB
Wembley Rovers beat Castlebar Celtic 3-1 and have a pretty young side. Never saw Carrick play but I'd imagine that they play things pretty tight at the back and would have a pretty decent midfield. I saw Cork junior football a couple of times and to be pretty honest, it is pretty average; the top dogs play in the MSL. Grattan FC mustn't be that bad to beat Pike Rovers or did Pike Rovers not turn up? The two Dublin teams are not household names. St John Bosco did better than expected while Shangan Rovers are supposed to have a nice side. Carew Park are a tough, physical side that are very hard beaten at home and are very confident of themselves. Salthill Devon are one of the better Galway sides but can blow hot and cold. Capable of playing good football. West United are on a bit of a resurgence but are a rather average side. Castlerea Celtic have done really well this year in the competition and would be hard beaten at home and I'd imagine they would play pretty direct, like most Roscommon teams. Villa FC are a darkhorse and I've seen Waterford football and it is pretty well organised. Their teams wouldn't score much but they concede even less and they have a UEFA B coach involved. As for Killester, they have played fantastic free flowing football and they look like the team to capture the FAI Junior Cup. Funny enough, the last two teams to beat Killester United went on to win the competition and so did the last two victors over Pike Rovers. Could be an interesting omen for somebody.
Never play leapfrog with a unicorn!!
thunderblaster how many of the remaining teams have you actually seen play in the last year,on what basis do you base your opinion on!it's very hard to rate a team from word of mouth and 2nd hand info!
if u got no socks,u can't pull them up!
lads anyone wanting to see the fai winners drop down to the boro club at 2o,clock tomorrow![]()
That would be Salthill then....
Salthill Devon beat Carew Park 6-5 on penalties. Great win for the Galway lads. Could be an all-Galway quarter final. Anyone hear ghow West Utd got on against Castlerea.
its up to wembley now to keep limerick flag flying. they really are gonna be up against it though. have a funny feeling its gonna be carricks year though if anyone will stop killester it will be them
Typical Carew Park - some lads mouthing all week that ye win all before ye but as like the years before, ye got caught out on your home patch. yes we might have seen the champions yestarday - Salthill Devon and good luck to them. Also well done to West Utd.

Have to agree with footie...
I saw yesterdays match Carew v salthill... cant see salthill winning it out.salthill have a couple of nice players but are carrying maybe four players. Chap who scored their goal has some belt of a football, haven't seen anybody hit a ball that cleanly ever..the red haired chap who finished at right full is a fine player. polish guy??on the left wing was poor, one very good center half, the other guy , who was taken off, was very poor. Center fwd seemed very disinterested but clerly had ability.. young chap that was brought on in 2nd half looked very lively..salthill were 1 up againist 10 men and could not kill the game...
No great surprise to see Carew beaten. A very average Premier outfit that should now concentrate on staying in the division.
