FAI Junior Cup 2008/09

i may have been wrong about the glass - carrick fixture .
the draw is not made yet , 4 yeams left -- 2 to qualify from area !

Draw is made and Carrick are away to Glass. Bohs play Johnville in the other game. The amount of teams qualifying from your area depends on the number who enter from Round 1.

only 2 coming out from waterford . taught a strong league like that would deserve more clubs making the open draw

I think it is related to the number of clubs registered to the league...

There are only 64 qualify for the "out of town" in the FAI from the whole of the country. I think the Munster Breakdown is:
Cork AUL + West Cork League + MSL (Junior section) = 7
Limerick District = 6
Clare + Limerick Desmond + Kerry = 5 (I think)
North Tipp + South Tipp + East Cork West Waterford = 5 (I think)
Waterford & District = 2

So the Waterford & District league only gets two... But for sure those two that do come through will be real challengers for the title... So I don't think it is necessarily on the "strength" of the league but on the numbers in the leagues...

We are on the same hymn sheet. But again politics are at work here. West Waterford should be part of Waterford League and Tipp stay a separate entity. It makes sense. I wonder where that decision was made and by whom?

[leather]

getting the fai junior cup draw is akin to getting the truth out of a politician.

[leather]

[Dines]

Regional 4-1 Bruff Utd
Pike Rvs 4-0 Knocklong
Fairview 3-1 wembley ( close enough game)
Carew 3-2 Granville Rgs

would agree with all the predictions above.
if it does turn out that way,then limerick would have a very strong representation in the open draw stages,no disrespect intended to bruff,knocklong etc.

WATERFORD .
1 Carrick Utd. v Johnville F.C. .
2 Bohemians v Waterford Crystal.

the waterford pairing's looks difficult to call,also tralee dyn and newcastlewest fixture
how are peake villa doing these days in tipp.south??
that looks like the tie of the round ,although i'm not too well up how the league is going down there.

[keith.henn]

sligo/leitrim/roscommon 4th round draw is:

Arrow Harps v Carbury FC
City Utd v Ballinasloe Town
Strand Celtic v Manor Rangers

Carbury should be too strong for Arrow Harps, Manor have had a slow start to the season, GAA team won the championship this year but they're getting back on track again, Strand are ticking along nicely in the league, but i'll plump for Manor. If Ballinasloe are a patch on their team of a few years ago they could be too strong for City Utd eventhough City are top of the Super League.

But its cup football anything can happen. Its an achievement to get out of the section to the national draw, only three teams from the three counties make it.

As both Carrick and Crystal have won the FAI Cup in the last couple of years it would seem pretty clear cut in Waterford

thanks for the info....just going on reputations from maybe a while back.
both johnville and bohs are well known throughout junior soccer,as are carrick and cyrstal.
just said i'd ask as winning an fai does not mean you'll hold your players...it can mean a whole new rebuilding process after the senior clubs take the best of them.
case in point being fairview,won the trophy in 2004 and have not even won a local trophy since,nor a mind a provincial or national.
admittedly,after that, a host of players left to go league of ireland so it was always going to be tough
