    Er..yeah of course we'll be favourites but St. Pat's won't make it easy for us! Oh well..can't be in the final every year. Hope there's a decent enough crowd that we get some cash out of it.

    just thinkin of previous matches we have played pats in any cup competition this decade I have counted five:

    2001 fai cup we won after a replay keith o connor with the winner
    2003 league cup final lost 1-0 to a late dave freeman winner
    2003 fai cup final obviously you know the rest
    2006 fai cup the famous 4-1 massacre in incicore when nothin went right for us..

    obviously nine years ago we lost to pats in a peno shootout in the league cup

    Dont think we are goin to win but it would be lovely to bring them to a replay.. strangely enough the last team we were in the bottom flght 1999/00 season we knocked out a top flight club in waterford utd...

    u never know in the cup thats the beauty of it.. Im sure Kirbs will get a great reception off us as for that traitor paisley... thought I would never be in McDowells again...
    Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?

    Yup looking forward to this alright. Bloody toughest draw of all for us unbelievably. However it will be a good indication of what exactly we have on our team at present. McDowells here we come. Hopefully a good crowd will come for us too.

    Of all the draws to get.... The runaway League leaders. Still it's our specialist competition, maybe the Cup magic is still there, why not, we can but dream of a run to boost our coffers.

    It's a pity Carlsberg don't sponsor the cup anymore, because if they did....

    ... St Patrick's Athletic 0 - 1 Longford Town
    Paisley (OG) 93

    Pats away on a friday night, it'll be like the old days!
    Happy enough with the draw, easy ground to get to, and not that far away. With half the gate, we should be able to get something from the game financially, and who knows if Davoren is on his game we could snatch a result
