Not since an infamous defeat at non-league Portmarnock in 2001 had Dundalk FC been eliminated from the FAI Cup by a team playing outside of Premier Division foo.
It was a case of nightmare at Belfield Bowl last Friday night as Dundalk yet again failed to record an away win, but instead lost to bottom of the table UCD. It.
