Draw for Inishowen League Cup complete

League leaders Cockhill Celtic are out for revenge when they face off against Buncrana Hearts in the Inishowen League Cup

Cockhill Celtic ease past Clonmel Celtic and into FAI Junior Cup semi-finals

The League cup draw has been done for the Inishowen teams this morning. 

Cockhill Celtic sit at the top of the Inishowen League on 30 points with six games remaining, but Clonmany Shamrocks, who are second, have all their league matches complete and sit on the same number of points as last year’s FAI Intermediate Cup runners-up.  

So even if Cockhill lose their remaining league matches it seems extremely unlikely they will lose the league, with plus-13 of a goal difference better than Clonmany. 

But today, all attention turned to the cup draw with Cockhill Celtic lined up to play Buncrana Hearts, who overcame the league leaders last weekend in the Ulster Junior Cup final on penalties. 

The draw is as follows:
