    First time with no Dublin team in semis?

    Just wondering if this is the first time that no Dublin club has reached the FAI Cup semi finals?

    If it isn't when was the last time?

    Someone with more time on their hands than me might want to research it.

    Only one Dublin side in the quater finals too, and none of the 'big four'.

    Probably not- good question

    possibilities - 99 Bray v Derry Harps v Galway - is this right????? or do Bray count as a non Dublin team?

    other possibilities

    94 - Sligo v Limerick - Derry v ?? think it was Bohs or maybe shels though

    77 Limerick v Drogheda - can't remember who Dundalk beat but not Waterford or Sligo so probably a Dublin team

    53 Cork Atheltic v Limerick can't remember who Evergreen beat.

    Athlone met Fordsons in 1924 don't know who they beat in the s emis

    Waterford v Cork Hibs 72 again don't know who they beat

    52 Dundalkv Cork Athletic - Dundalk beat waterford I think not sure re Cork A

    Cork v Derry 89 - Cork beat Bray I think did Derry beat Longford or was that a different year?

    Dundalk v Waterford in 79 final - don't know who they beat

    others to rule out

    71 Limerick v Drogheda we beat Pats and Drogheda beat Cork Hibs
    41 Cork United v Waterford - Waterford beat Shamrock Rovers

    Town beat Bohs in the semis, so it didn't happen then.

    Bohs and St. James's Gate.

    No Dublin semifinalists in 1981 (Dundalk, Finn Harps, Sligo, Waterford.) Probably others, but don't have time to look.
