Information About

Fai Cup




Since 2003, Irish domestic football has moved from the traditional European August-May season to a summer set-up, as favoured in Scandinavia. As an "interim" season was played in the second half of 2002, two FAI Cup Finals took place that year - Dundalk winning April's Cup, Derry City lifting the trophy in November.

After two defeats in Cup Finals in the 1970s, Drogheda United finally reached the summit in 2005. Goals from Gavin Whelan (son of Bohemians' 1992 FAI Cup-winning captain Paul, and nephew of Liverpool's Ronnie) and captain Declan O'Brien helped "the Drogs" to a 2-0 win over Damien Richardson 's Cork City .
