FAI Cup Quarter Finals

ANTIFA!

Friday:
Live: TG4
Bohs vs Sligo-2-1 Bohs

Saturday:
Longford Town vs Bray Wanderers- 0-1
Sporting Fingal vs Shamrock Rovers(Also live@7.30 on Saturday) 1-0 Fingal
Waterford United vs St.Pat's-Pat's 2-1


As a Bohs fan I'd love to beat Rovers in the final at Tallaght but I can see Fingal dumping them out as they return to Morton.

Waterford might be able to pull of a shock against Pat's but I see them coming out on top....just.

Hopefully Waterford do get through, wear them out a bit more for the title run-in and it would probably mean our match down in Waterford would be moved from this Tuesday.

Thinking the same about Bray and Sligo.

It'll only be moved if it's a draw tomorrow night.

I'll take any win at all for Bohs. A scrappy 1-0 win from an unfair penalty the bounces off the post and in off the arse of the keeper, as long as it gets us back to winning ways.

Mis-wrote that, meant to add the draw part.

Yes please. Monaghan should have beat pats twice so i'd be surprised if you didn't at least give them a bit of a scare. Good luck.

ANTIFA!

woeful first half performance, if any of our great boards.ie soccer forum members who unfortuntalely were unable to attend a live match this evening due to whatever reason watched this on tg4 they wouldn't have switched over for a 2nd half and i wouldn't blame them. second half we improved greatly and do not know how we didn't score a few goals, the sligo keeper brush was like a superhuman and peers was very good as well.

sligo had one nice little bit of play in second half when boco playing right back(was it boco?) made a great attacking run and just pulled his shot wide.

what would you know about 'good football'!!!! if it was a person from barcelona who goes to the camp nou every week said that to me i might call him a tosser but i'd have to say fair enough but you probably don't even know what a live football match looks like let alone be able to judge the quality of it.

but1er

forget to end that my opion dont start crying with all ur facts just saying

ANTIFA!

and what football team do you support? i take it you don't support ireland national team either and perhaps instead follow england because we're crap and they have world class players?

but1er

ok so were going there, ive been to plenty of match in this league i just cant stand it get very bored and not entertain. i support coventry in the championship all my life and only 17 you will reply going on about how muck coventry are.......

fh041205

but1er, why are you asking that? If you have a point to make then start a new thread otherwise, GTFO:p

ANTIFA!, don't indulge this troll please.

From what I caught on the tv, Bohs looked far the better side. Huffed and puffed but no killer punch. Will be a tough time for them in Sligo.

Bohs are playin ****e lately, must be due to the moral being very low in the club with the financial situation they are currently in and the threat of relegation looming, the players dont even know where their next pay cheque is coming from

Not a bad result for Fingal. They should have won really. But, I think Rovers were a little stunned in the 2nd half.

Looks like there will be a few replays this week now.

stovelid

Brutal second-half display from Rovers. Fungal were well worth the draw, even more, in the end.

HalloweenJack

All replays...jees that's just great. Doesn't anybody want to win this thing?

I hope to God we beat Longford on Tuesday, it'd be pretty pathetic if we don't.

Odds on 4 draws was 18 to 1 :eek:

are you sure?

That seems extremly skinny to me

Should have been closer to 118/1

Draw in the bohs game should have been at least 3/1ish for a start

What about that conan strike that hit the outside of the net. We thought it was 3-2:o.

A lot of people (both stands) thought it was in. So did I initially, and I was only a few feet away. He also ripped the net with his shot, which took a while to repair.

All these replays are a nice revenue generator, but make the schedule very tight.

You all did. The cheer must have lasted a few seconds.

Have to admit: thought it was a nice touch (seriously) when you sung Who are you? (that is what I heard?) at an away support three times the size of the home support.

Made me laugh anyway.

so the franchise were unlucky? was out so missed the match last night, any where i could see highlights/goals?

20 Times 20 Times

Gavin "shels"

What was the attendence? From what I saw of the last 10 mins it didn't look as big as when Shels play there unless Fungus had a big home crowd.:pac:

They said 1600 plus.

From the terrace, it looked like about 400 of that was Fingal.

Aye, wasn't poking fun. I thought it was funny.

I have a funny feeling that 1,600 was not correct.

Yous had a lot more than shels had when we last played them and that crowd was around the 1,400. With about 7 to 750 shels (I know shels lads are going to jump in saying thats not true, but it is the truth) Hey Gavin;).

Our crowd was around the 650 mark for the cup game. I was a little disapointed with that to be honest. I think the all ticket thingy back fired a little. I also think we let people into our area who paid on the night. Which is why the official crowd is actually down on what I thought it actually was. Just my honest opinion.

Hard Worker

1200 on the Rovers terrace and 400 in the Fingal stand. That was more or less the official count. It looked like about 500 in the stand, so perhaps Fingal were trying to cheat us out of a few bob. My estimation of the crowd was 1700.

Id say we didnt mention the people who came in for cash instead of tickets alright. Which is not on in fairness. Iv seen our stand a lot over the last year and a half and there was definitely more than 400 or 500 but lets not argue over a few fans. Is there an official count of how many tickets Shamrock Rovers sold.

The phrase two sad, bitter, bald men fighting over a comb springs to mind when you think about fool.ie

Only in the League of Ireland would supporters of clubs with attedances ranging from a few hundred to 2,000 spend all their time obsessively arguing about whether their rivals have sold more than 3,000 seats or not.

According to a Shels fan you do, and he'd be somewhat an official of Shels.;) BTW I've never seen anyone with clickers going into your ground and I've been there everytime we've played up there.

Sligo are going to be deserving winners if they go on and win.

Cork, Derry and Bohs have fallen at the Showgrounds so far.

If Shamrock Rovers fail to get through its theirs for the taking.

applehunter

Fingal have gone 2-1 up on Shamrock Rovers 7 mins left in extra time.

applehunter

Hold the back page.....Pen to Rovers last minute of inj. time in extra time.

And Bradley misses....:eek:

Sligo
Fingal
Waterford
Bray

in the semi's

fair play waterford


Tbh Kenna should relegate us just for the crack.

applehunter

Pats team are just a disgrace to their club and fans.

How many wakeup calls does a team need?

Sluggish agasint Monoghan. lucky to get a draw at the weekend and then they still manage to show another inept performance.

Glen Fitz should just retire. He had it for a while a few years ago but its gone now.
