What is the point of reviving this competition when the League Cup is already such a joke? Do we really need another nothing cup?

And Shels actually:D

According to wikipedia Leinster senior cup was first played in 1892/3 season. Shels weren't founded until 1895....:p

I doubt clubs will be playing their first team in fairness.

Sorry to appear pedantic, but isn't that my point?

My 1st ever match was a LSC Final and I for one am glad to see it back. It also gives 1st division clubs a chance to play premier opposition.

Tallaght here we come. Forza Youths

I don't know about that. First couple of rounds are in pre-season. I can see it getting taken relatively seriously.

I hate to be pedantic, but the cup never went away. LoI clubs are just re-entering it.
