Then again we could get each other...

Or you could play on the Friday and they play on the Saturday/Sunday!

That will happen but the pitch is taking a hammering these days as all the underage League finals are been played in Terryland,aswell as the Galway District League team.

If you hear any score please post here!

Good game, Tolka have a very solid team. Keith Maher has developed into a fine player. Could form an interesting parternship with Ger McCarthy (on as a late sub today.)

Pretty pathetic that the FAI website has not bothered too post the results yet. Goes to show how professional Mr Delaney has made the set up. No results on AERTEL either. I was at the Tolka Rovers game today, good crowd. PIty the FAI don't take this round as seriously as the clubs.

former GUFC and SRFC player Ryan O'Donnell scored a cracker of a goal to win the match for Salthill Devon also. A cross came in from the far left and Ryan caught it on the volley from the corner of the box to drill it straight in to the bottom left corner of the goals.

Have to say though that Avondale were robbed as they must have had 80% of the possession, they just hadnt a clue what to do with it in the final third.

Awww no. Was talkin to Drogheda Town (and ex Mons) goalie Sammy Colgan last week & was hoping that they would do the biz. Hard luck Sammy!

Disagree with you Terry that they were robbed. 2nd half was very scrappy, but any decent passing football was being played by Salthill. With a strong breeze behind them, Avondale did very little except punt long balls. If they don't know what to do with possession they don't deserve anything.

Also Kildrum Tigers 1 Malahide United 2

Interesting to see that 2 of 2 Junior clubs have qualified (other 2 results still unknown!)

Is there really any difference in standard between Junior and Intermediate?

The Galway city fire service would have to be on full alert.

What, to spray the Dundalk fans with poisoned water and send them home with the runs?

don't think so. from a local interest point of view it would be great but as goes the crowd it would be much bigger against most other teams espically if it was against one of the top premier teams or even Limerick or yer selves. salthill wouldn't be as popular a team in galway from a support point of view as say mervue, hibs or west.
