Draw supposedly Tuesday 7th February.

It's a strange competition. Hardly the need for Premier teams involved in it. Give the Junior teams a chance.

Always thought this and league cup were useful competitions to give fringe and youth players in the squad a run out. Might be a challenge this season if we are fielding a smaller squad

Was the draw made?

I remember in Kenny first season we played sherif up in Dublin and he used the match well in pre season to play alot of players. Big crowd at the game too from both sides. Went to et.

The clue was in my opening post.

Supposed to be made on Tuesday 07 February.

The LSC has effectively been a reaerve/youth competition for thr big boys since it came back. The chaotic running of it doesn't give it any chance to establish a toehold. The League Cup should be played up to at least the quarter finals in preseason (like in the 90s), better than playing friendlies

I remember a Leinster Senior Cup Final, final poss mid 90's, almost sure it was Richmond Park, we lost to UCD, the highlight was

2 UCD fans using a tannoy for the whole game cheering their side on !!

It was a big cup back in its day mind, checked dfc.com earlier and we won it as many times as the league cup (7).

Mike if I recall correctly that final was played in a serious fog?

I remember this as the the one played on the astro pitch beside Clontarf Dart station, if that's the right one? It was absolutely Baltic that night.

There was also another one against St. Pat's CYFC in Irishtown Park. The Irishtown House did quite well that evening.

Yeah that was the one. It was Kenny's first game and a few future club legends made their debuts that day. The coldest match I've ever been at and the was audible groans when it every to extra time

There are some rumours flying around that the Shelbourne match is fixed for Tuesday 31 January.
