Yes we can!!!

Dundalk hold Linfield to a 1-1 draw at Oriel to claim a place in the second round of the Setanta Cup.

Dundalk will now head to the Oval to face Glentoran next Monday 7th February.

Can we do it? Yes we can!

Tomorrow evening sees Dundalk take on Linfield in the second leg of the Setanta Cup First Round at Oriel Park.

Taking a significant lead into the game from the first leg in Belfast 2 weeks ago gives the home side any advantage that is to be had for the return tie, but the second leg promises to be a competitive match also. Reports are that the stand is a sellout so the atmosphere off the pitch should match the competition on it.

Dundalk look better prepared for this tie, with a stronger squad and 2 extra defenders available than in Belfast.

Having said that, the players are sure to need that little extra something that only the Oriel Roar can provide. If the fans can help out on that front then the team should be able to do the rest.

With a potential second round tie against Glentoran as a reward, the incentive is there to replicate the performance some of us were lucky enough to experience in Belfast on Valentines night. If they can achieve that then the result should follow, which would set things up nicely for the opening night of the League campaign in Tallaght on Friday night.

Bring on the 2011 season!
