Lifford A 1-1 Lifford B (AET) Lifford B won 5-4 on pens.Originally Posted by hacker
Lifford B were on the back foot for most of the game from the 2nd half on. Their keeper made some excellent saves and was Man Of The Match easily. Lifford A keeper made a mess of one of the pens in the shootout and after it Lifford A's pen was put over the bar. The ref let the A team off the hook big-time before half-time with game at 1-1, Lifford B forward through on goal, centre-half took him out with a professional foul just inside the box and ref gave a free and yellow card. Maybe the Lifford A players might have some regrets about running onto the pitch and punching the air after Lifford B's shootout win in Newmarket in the last round now
I dont think lifford A players will regret seeing their B team beating newmarket or running on to the field, wat they will regret was the chances they missed to win the game today! was a good game but really it should be the A;s that are there........another season without a trophy for lifford A, maybe someday ha

Nice to see the B team win they seem to have more of a drive then their A team, Hopefully they will acquit themselves well in the final and I might fancy them to cause an upset because either Rovers or Olympic will be clear favoutites nice to see 3 new teams in contention for the cup
how could u say rovers or olimpic are favourets after the lifford b knocked out mount shannon newmarket and lifford a the bs have earnd there rightto be there they done it the hard way and have to fear no one in the final
Avenue beat the burren 1-0 today, so that makes the lifford v bunratty game in cassidys park very interesting, just wonder wat kinda lifford side will turn up as they have no chance of winning the cup or league now so they might just be going through the motions......is it the sunday of the bank holiday weekend it finishes up? congrats to lifford B yesterday with a great win, luck was on their side but u need luck to win a cup!
very inresting indeed ... who would lifford rather see win the league bunratty or there bitter ennis rivals avenue
" football is a simple game "
Rineanna disposed of Olympic 4-2 after penalties (1-1 full time)
Low scoring on penalties. Unusual that both semi-finals finished 1-1 and went to penalties.
Should be a good final between Lifford B and Rineanna. Hope the weather is a bit better than this weekend.
wouldn't like to call it. either of them are well capable of winning it.

brilliant game to watch in newmarket today, both teams gave it everything + made it a cracking match..nice crowd at it too!! shud be a good final now in afew weeks time. lifford b tryin to bring clare cup back for 1st time in 30 odd years and rineanna goin for watd be 1st big trophy in their history?
wats the story in newmarket, heard at d game today dat the A team will b lookin for a new manager at the end of the year??dunno how true this is, cud azceltic, first or someone in d kno clear tings up a bit?
My predictions for final league postions are
Rats to be champs, Moher and corofin to go down with Rinneanna finishing in the relegation/promotion playoff spot. anyone else???
Brilliant game?? Don't know what game you were watching but imo the game was poor. Maybe the weather didn't help but both teams stuggled to get any momentum going whatsoever. Nerves might've been a factor in that though. Congrats to The rovers. Best of luck to both Lifford and Rineanna in the final.
I wouldn't say it was a "brilliant" game now, it was ok at best but the weather wasn't great and there was a lot at stake. Credit to Rineanna, for me overall they deserved to go through and they're in with a great chance of lifting the Cup now if they can get everyone there like today but that'll be interesting if the Newmarket v Wolfe Tones Senior Championship game is on the same day as the Cup Final as both are down for the same weekend. Surprised Jocks wasn't starting today, he's better than both central midfielders Rovers had out.
First Cup Final for Rineanna since '99, any of that team on the current team?
Well done to the Rovers and Lifford B over the weekend. Rineanna have to be favourites but anything can happen as was proven last year.
4 of the Rineanna '99 panel remain on the '09 panel afaik. None of them started yesterday but 2 came on. The other 2 had the "boots" but not the ones with studs on them
Great win for Avenue yesterday. I hear they got the winner fairly late. Makes for an interesting day next Sunday with a battle at the top and the bottom.
congratulations to rineanna and lifford B predictions for next weekend i reckon athere will bve a playoff between avenue and bunratty moher and corofin down bridge in the relegation playoff and a munster and Paquiao double
Congrats to Lifford B and Rovers on cup wins. Massive weekend of football next weekend. Bunratty to be crowned champions, will get a draw at least in my eyes. Wouldn't be surprised if Moher beat Avenue in Liscannor to make things even more interesting at the bottom. Burren to beat Bridge Celtic at home. Could be disappointment for Rovers or Bridge United.

Hard fought game - both teams finding it hard to get anything going although Rineanna opened silightly better - but it was fairly even after that - conditions didn't help either
Unfortunaly injurys were a problem for Rineanna yesterday with 4 of the starting 11 injured - I'd be fairly confident is saying had these players been available it would have been a much different game !
Best of luck to both teams in the final and to the Rats on Sunday - it would be a shame to lose out at this satge of the league !

problem for olympic too with 5 players sidelined and 2 others playing with knocks so yeah without injuries it might have been a much different outcome
well done to Rineanna they kept their composure in the shootout. Nothing between the teams, Rineanna started better but Olympic controlled the second part of the first half. Jocks introduction gave Rineanna a lift after half time but again Olympic got back into it and created a few chances. Rineanna keeper made a great save from Ray Quigleys lob and Jay Hamam had a chance for Rineanna. Both defences were good and it was an entertaining midfield battle. Not many goal chances but some nice football played at times.
Both teams deserve credit and good luck to Rineanna in the final.
you are only a loser when you stop trying. Playing sport does not build character, it reveals it.
anyone know thw odds for the cup and the league now aat the latter stages ????
