Against a good Championship side With absolutely nothing to lose, The gap really isn´t that wide And this one will be far from a cruise We don´t want any egg on our face Despite the league being our aim, And can we comfortably book our place In the fourth round from this tricky game It would keep us ticking along And help in our league campaign too, For the winning trend keeps us on song And stops folk from becoming blue For doubts could set in if we fail Whatever the team he puts out, And any defeat makes the ale Taste sour, at least hereabouts And finally, one small request As I view the game from afar, Hoping as always for the best And euphoric whenever we star Would some kind soul who´s at the match Enjoying their pre-match programme, Be so good to see if they can catch A glimpse of Limericks when they scan For they should be clearly on view In this week´s Canary volume, Extolling the merits of our crew So let´s hope we´re not out of tune.

Nice one RBF! I'm not sure what's wrong with me! I won't be upset if we lose, the trend for two and a half years now has been to do well in the league and not in the cup! Any cup! I'm just worried that if we break that trend, it may sour our fortunes!
Wouldn´t be the end of the world, I grant you, but we´re certainly due a run, if only for two or three rounds, and defeat today would just get everyone moaning again, and dampen the spirit somewhat. Also our league position is such that, two or three extra Cup games shouldn´t make the slightest difference. OTBC
