Pike v Portmarnock looks the pick of the ties
Interesting ties there ... anyone know how Pike are playing these days?
Heard they were a bit lucky last round?
Will there be a big crowd at their game?
Last 2 fai matches have seen big crowds attend,especially against Fairview,possibly the biggest crowd for a good few years in limerick..
We're playing alright,nothing special,tipping along with the wins,I'd still fancy Pike on home ground to beat most Junior sides about on the day.
And lucky last round?The difference between Limerick teams and rest of the country is that they actually have to play in decent,competitive matches to get into the out of town stages..

Someone sensible explain why Ballanty and ashling annacotty are 3rd(joint second) and 4th favourites...When Pike Rovers(current Munster Junior champions) are 16/1...
Is this real? I seriously doubt it...
And see's it don't tell be because Balla are better than pike,on the decent pitch of Jackman park,pike hockied Balla in the Munster Junior final...
Anyone know anything about St Patricks at 40/1, I can see they beat Galway Hibs and Salthill Devon in the last round, both of which were won on penos. I can see their league form is not great and the strong results are all at home.
Whats their set-up in terms of pitch, club house, general all round set-up?

Absolutely right.I would go so far as to say that it is totally unfair on the Limerick clubs because of the higher standard of junior football,albeit due to the lack of intermediate football there.I know I would get no support for this but their top 4 premier clubs should be seeded within their local area early rounds.But then its ironic that of the 5 limerick sides who got out into the open round now Pike get Portmarnock!!!!Thats cup football.

That was last year balla are a much improved outfit since then from what i hear ,added a few new players aswell, Odds are probably going on pikes few
lucky performances against fairview and carew pk ,and the fact that pa moloney is starting might make the odds a bit bigger 2,
We are a second tier side in the AUL Dublin. Blanchardstown based. Reached the last 32 three years running. Knocked out by Everton down in cork 3-2, knocked out by killester two seasons ago 1-2, and beaten in dundalk 1-0 (we'' say no more about that one, still boils the blood).
Looking forward to our trip. Dont think it'll happen until January though.

Thats not a bad standard, no shame in losing to Killester. I think Pats are based around Tuam if that helps.
