Setanta Sports Cup
Encyclopedia
The Setanta Sports Cup, commonly known as just the Setanta Cup, is a club football
competition featuring teams from both football associations on the island of Ireland
. It was inaugurated in 2005 as a cross-border competition between clubs from the League of Ireland
from the Republic of Ireland
and the Irish League
from Northern Ireland
.
The cup is sponsored by Setanta Sports
, the Irish
subscription sports television network
. The competition was launched with Setanta providing support for prize money (€
350,000) and sponsorship (€1.6 million over four years). In June 2009, the company went into administration and ceased broadcasting in Great Britain, putting the future of the competition in doubt. The draw for the 2009 tournament
was postponed while the company tries to continue trading in Ireland. The competition has seen numerous instances of crowd violence at its games since its inception, while attendances at fixtures have declined.
The competition features four teams from each league with the winners and runners-up of the respective leagues, the winners of the respective major cup competitions, FAI Cup
of the League of Ireland, and Irish Cup
of the Irish League, and the winners of the respective secondary cup competitions, the League of Ireland Cup and Irish Football League Cup
being added. If a club has qualified via a cup win and would also qualify by league table position, one of the spots would be awarded to the next highest club in the league table that has not qualified via a cup win. A ninth team qualifies by winning the competition the year before, if the winners have already qualified their spot is given to the highest finishing team in the winner's league that didn't already qualify. The competition is organised with three groups of three teams, semi-finals and a final.

2007
The draw for the 2007 Setanta Cup competition was made on 07 December 2006 with the original competing teams being the identical ones to the previous year's competition. On 30 January 2007, however, Shelbourne FC announced that they were withdrawing from the competition for reasons relating to their financial troubles and the fact that they would be unlikely to field a team of players. Their place was given to the 2006 FAI Cup runners-up St Patrick's Athletic FC, despite the fact that the next best-placed in the previous season's league (Shelbourne's qualification route), who did not have a place in the Setanta Cup already, were Sligo Rovers. While it is likely that the organisers transferred Derry, who finished second in the league, into Shelbourne's empty slot, first in the league, for the purpose of official qualification and then accorded St Pat's qualification by way of the FAI Cup, this would have logically entailed Derry moving into Group 2 to fill Shelbourne's place, while St. Patrick's should compete in Group 1 in the place of the moved Derry. However, it is possible that for the purposes of the initial draw, teams were accorded lots on an alphabetical basis. Thus, it would follow that St. Patrick's would have been assigned the same lot as Shelbourne and would have, as a result, been drawn in the same slot anyway.The first round of matches commenced on Monday 26 February 2007. The prize of £100,000 was on offer to the eventual competition winner, with the runner-up to receive £55,000. Linfield progressed from the first stage after finishing top of Group 1, guaranteeing them a home semi-final, while Drogheda United finished behind them. This meant that Drogheda had to travel away from home to meet the winners of Group 2, who were St. Patrick's Athletic. Meanwhile, Cork City, who finished second in Group 2 had to travel to Windsor Park
