I thought Shane Griffin was excellent for Cork. Penalties were top class also.

Will Mark McNulty retire now or keep playing?

Well done Cork on a successful season.


Agreed. Of all the players on the pitch today, I'd pick Grifffin to reach the highest level of all of them. Decent footballer but his athleticism will bring him a long way

Can't see a championship club picking up McEleney as much as I admire him

McEleney is class IMO. I hope he stays in the league. Why do our players think its england or failure? Why not belguim or holland or a sweden etc.

Yeah he had a great game. He really stepped up when we lost O'Connor in the summer.

Enjoyed it as well.
Beforehand thought Dundalk would win it.
Their keeper kept them in it
RTE player was about 5 mins behind real life
Congrats to Cork

The boys seemed to be sl*gging him off pre match saying he only does it against the small teams in small games.

#Diversity #SharedSpace

I consider myself pro-Lilywhite, player transfer, toe-to-toe ding-dong Football matches with my own club UCD.  I would expect Dundalk to continue to be the benchmark that other clubs measure themselves against.

90 minutes of Football (Dundalk) versus the outcome of the game (Cork City), my world view is to enjoy the 90 minutes.

They'd really want to close the top tiers of the stadium.
It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

The FAI can't even do something a basic as this

Cup final should be 6pm on a Saturday. It would be very unlucky to clash with a big PL match at that time.

With all due respect to both teams, I hope to f**k neither get to the final next year. Pain in the hole watching them.
Theres only one sport that matters..
