fairview-evergreen beat a bad galway side at home 2-1 in the last 64,fairview to advance
carrick-will find it tough in athlone,carrick will scrape through
janesboro-peno's to decide this one in janesboro's favour
waterford bohs-another one to go all the way,with bohs advancing
lisselton-will beat city by the odd goal
kinsale-home advantage will see kinsale through
ballymun-should be 2 strong for crumlin
sheriff yc-i think sheriff could go all the way,although they will have to stop micka keogh of coolock to advance.
i think we may end up with a fairview v sheriff yc final if they avoid each other,would really of fancied carrick but for the injuries to 2 of there best players.
if u got no socks,u can't pull them up!
haven't seen ye play but i know ye won the kerry league last season and have some of the best players in kerry. have some good sources in kerry that reckon ye are a good side and as you said ye have won a lot in the last year. also, i think that there is a few average enough teams left in the competition. no offence
I can't see fairview winning it this year. They haven't managed to get out of limerick in the FAI since the last time they won it. They've put a good team together this year with a lot of new players, they'll take beating but I think it'll be a major achievement to win it.
Mama Mia!!
the injuries are a problem BUT this team has a squad full of good players who are determined to go all the way again .
would agree their current price is very good value !!!!![]()

Heno10,
I take it you were there too? Were Evergreen a crowd of hoofers? Or did they just get in around the Kevin's lads and not allow them to pass the ball? I've never known an Evergreen team to be a crowd of hoofers. And i've seen them a few times in the FAI Cup through the years.
Anyone got any info on kinsale, our boys heading down there next week in next round of the fai,whats pitch like.
i don't see whats wrong with playing 16 year olds, if you are good enough you are old enough. we have two 16 year olds and a 17 year old in our first team squad and i know we didn't do great in fai junior cup (because of referees, thats for another day) but we are still one of the favourites for the connaught cup and it is also great experience for the young lads.
the last time lisselton got this far they had a 16 year and 17 year old playing. there some of our squad this year not much older than that. doesnt make a difference whether your in goals or not. every position is critical at this stage.
In my opinion if a your playing a young goalie in goals with very little experience ur defence would do there best to protect him and on the day there were sliced open and well beaten, you cant blame the goalie, the team itself did very well to get that far and ran into better oposition.
Its true lisselton have got a much easier draw in the competition than some of the big names left but there young team has had experience at eircom league and fai (youth finals) in the past!!
i think he may have been ranting about Granville in the previous round
