If we can beat Kildare next week we'll face Pat's at Richmond. It's perhaps not as bad a draw as it sounds on paper as Pat's have a heavy schedule and may well opt for a second string side.
As always with these things we're playing Pat's that week.

On the other hand we're playing Cork on the Thursday before hand and yourselves the following weekend so we'll be more rested than most. We've a small enough squad.
Last year McDonnell rested about 4/5 players against a first division side and they beat us

That's no gag. A few clubs still recognise the league cup for what it is, a tertiary competition. Pats know they are likely to get into the Setanta through other means and that getting to Europe is a bigger priority.

Last year Mahon rested about 11 players and we were knocked out by a first division side as well.

You are right we reverted to our traditional League Cup record, going out at the first hurdle....
