FAI quarter-final draw throws up mouth-watering derby clashes

THE draw for the quarter-finals of the FAI Ford Cup has thrown up a brace of appetising derbies, with St Patrick’s Athletic at home to Bohemians in Dublin and Waterford United hosting Cork City in a re-run of last Friday’s Munster match-up at the RSC, which Cork won 3-0.

In the remaining games, holders Derry City take on UCD at the Brandywell while First Division Limerick 37 must travel to Flancare Park to play Longford Town.

Pats manager Johnny McDonnell was not unhappy with the prospect of Dublin rivals visiting Richmond Park.
