No Longshanks. Just keeping a record of all results for this year and was confused about that tie. No my style to take teams for granted. What sort of side are Quayside?

I think they may have lost a player or 2 to Sligo Rovers A/U-20 teams

keeping an eye on the results/deaw meself, a lot of football to be played yet but this is how I see the last 8:

Leitrim/Hibs v East/St Pats - Hibs
Skyvalley/Yeats v Oranmore/Manor - Oranmore
Ballisodare/Ballygawley v Cliffoney/Boyle - Boyle
Shiven/Manulla v Castlebar/Ballyhane - Manulla
Westport/Corrib R v Dunmore/Ballyhaunis - Westport
Athenry/Mervue v Cartron/Salthill - Athenry
Quayside/Ballinasloe v OLBC/Erris - Ballinasloe
Carbury/Kilkerrin v Ballina/Strand - Carbury

apologies to all the teams I've burdened with the longshanks curse

**fatboyslim** · 18/02/2011, 11:51 AM

Shiven have a good chance against manulla this weekend. manulla out of season at moment which will be a big help. Shiven will be set up to defend and hit on the break. Can be hard to break down at home. struggling in league this year but may be able to lift themselves for cup

**badker** · 18/02/2011, 12:05 PM

I would go Hibs(cert), Skyvalley (home town decisions), Boyle(will have to do it the hard way), Castlebar (shiven with 2 home draws my be surprise package), Westport (cert), Mervue (upset going very well this season), Ballinasloe (Erris fresh and will be hard test but home draw advantage), Ballina (haven't seen carbury and Ballina play nice ball) .................................................. .......................... time will tell!

Updating records , realise have overlooked whom Athenry beat in 2007/08 final, can anyone help.

**badker** · 19/02/2011, 10:21 PM

Shiven Rovers 1-2 Manulla played tonight.

**dochara** · 20/02/2011, 10:55 PM

Athenry beat Mervue 1 - 0 at home this morning, the goal coming from an unmarked Simon Murray midway through the first half.

Would have thought Abbey beat Castlebar Celtic in Sligo under dykes that year if not mistaken correct me if I am wrong did Celtic not beat Athenry in Milebush in the semi final of that year.

The way I have it the draw is as follows:

(Ballinasloe/Erris v Carbury/Ballina) v (Manulla/Ballyhane v Hibs/East)
(Ballisodare/Boyle v Athenry/Salthill) v (Skyvalley/Oranmore v Westport/Ballyhaunis)

best of luck to Ballinasloe, Hibs and Athenry at the weekend in the FAI Junior Cup, would be a great boost for Connacht football if all 3 could progress to the last 8 of the national competition. Ballinasloe at home to St Peters, Athenry away to Clonmel and Hibs away to Cavan town, all tough ties but all winable too

congrats to Athenry for progressing(home tie against Pike, should be some game)....unlucky Ballinasloe and Hibs, losing tight games.....

last 16 games for this weekend:

Carbury v Ballina
Ballisodare v Boyle
Hibs v East
Athenry v Salthill
