    3rd Round

    Home v Limerick in the next round, shouldn't be too tricky they're sitting in fifth place in Div1. at least we avoided the big ones, the further we get the better.

    Didn't really care who we got, once we were at home. Obviously it is nice to go as long as possible without playing the big teams, but with the way we've been playing since the Drogheda match, I think we're a match for anyone.

    But very capable of beating of the top teams in the division.

    Our last cup run was the season before last when we beat 4 premier division teams (3 away) on our way to winning the League Cup.

    On league position you should beat us - but you should also see that we have scored as many goals as any other team in either division. We'll give you a game alright. Worry about the third round instead of a long cup run.

    and the Kilkenny game last year, We lost to the worst league team in Ireland...

    wouldn't be cocky about it at all, cup football is cup football... it's an underdogs competition...

    I saw ye playing against Bohs in Dalymount, and against Rovers at Inchicore, and ye could have won both games. Ye're a good enough side and I'm sure ye're happy with the draw. Beware though...the ghost of Cup Football is never far away, and we know how to beat premier teams as proven before.
    What kind of attendance can ye expect...we'll bring no more than 30-40 to the game. How much to get in... a tenner I suppose...I'm just wondering how much us paupers might make out of the tie...C'mon Limerick...get a 1-1 draw, get a decent gate, back to Limerick for replay...another decent gate...beat you 4-0 and hammer Bohs at Dalyer in the quarters...

    If Longford start as poorly as they did against Tolka Rovers in the last round, they'll have problems with Limerick as well. Realistically, though, Longford should be too good.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.
