DITB FFA cup second round

Dear All,

And now for the results of the second round of the DITB FFA Cup...



KFC Academical (P) 8 vs 18 Yer Ma's Athletic (C)

Good away win for the Conference League leader in the only Premiership vs Conference tie. Jones enjoying a tremendous season.



Well Hungarians (C) 15 vs 11 Black Socks Red Tops (C)

Brother Nugent's name is definitely on the cup this season... mark my words!!!



Boys of Summer (C) 14 vs 21 Virgin Surfers (C)

As predicted, the Surfers really enjoy this competition and cruise into last eight with a comfortable away win.



Joey's Monsters (C) 0 vs 19 Muckamore Utd (C)

Can't believe the Monsters actually beat The Grapes when I look at this performance against the worst team left in the competition!!!


Kirbs Crawlers (P) 10 vs 12 The Dogs Ballacks (P)

Brother Brogan wins a turgid affair with just 12 points. Now installed as bookies favourite.



Rafa's Goatee (P) 27 vs 22 The Happy Monkeys (P)

McDermoptt takes this competition very seriously in recent years and this impressive performance against the unlucky Monkeys shows that this year is no different.



Harpic Amsterdam (P) 24 vs 20 Au Revoir Thierry14 (P)

Having barely scraped through the last round, Harpic must fancy his chances this year after a tight victory over the high flying Guru.



Steprightin (C) 27 vs 14 Gazza's Piping Hots (C)

Henry Snr becomes the fifth Conference team in the last eight with a comprehensive victory over the Pipers.



So there you have it my friends.


The quarter finals will feature five teams from the Conference and only three from the Premiership. The magic of the cup is well and truly alive!

Let's remind ourselves of the eight quarter finalists...

Yer Ma's Athletic (C)
The Well Hungarians (C)
Virgin Surfers (C)
Muckamore Utd (C)
The Dogs Ballacks (P)
Rafa's Goatee (P)
Harpic Amsterdam (P)
Steprightin (C)

Well done to all our winners and good luck in the next round.

The draw will be made next week.

Until then, have a good weekend.
