UCD finished the 2006 championship as Dublin champions, by beating St Vincents in the final.

[edit] Round 1

The winners of their respective first round games go on to qualify for the second round, the losers are given a second chance in a backdoor system which could give them a place in the third round if they win their backdoor tie.

[edit] Round 2

[edit] Structure

All teams in Round two who lost in the first round are drawn against each other in the second round in a phase known as the second round backdoor. The losers of these backdoor games are out of the championship and must play in the relegation playoffs. The winning teams from round one are paired with each other. The losers of these round two games progress to the third round and the winning teams skip a round and go directly to the fourth round.

[edit] The Games

The most notable fixture in this round was the defeat of Kilmacud Crokes by Round Towers. This makes it more difficult for Kilmacud to retain their title, Kilmacud go straight to round 3 and Round Towers progress to Round 4. Also, St Vincents and St Oliver Plunketts were forced to a replay. The replay saw the return of Alan Brogan to Dublin football after a few months on the sidelines. Alan and his younger brother Bernard Brogan proved to be the difference between the sides although Plunketts goalkeeper Brendan Kennedy pulled some great saves against Dublin county forward Tomás Quinn. St Oliver Plunketts progress to the fourth round and St Vincents have a tie against Parnells in the third round.

[edit] What Happens Next

Therefore, St Oliver Plunketts/Eoghan Ruadh, Ballymun Kickhams, UCD, Raheny, St Judes, St Brigids A, Ballyboden St Endas progress to the fourth round as they won their respective second round games and haven't lost a game so far in the championship.

St Vincents, St Sylvesters, Lucan Sarsfields, Ballinteer St Johns, St Marks Naomh Mearnóg, Kilmacud Crokes and Erins Isle progress to the third round despite losing their games as they were a winning team in the first round.

Thomas Davis, Parnells, O'Tooles, Garda, Na Fianna, Naomh Olaf, St Marys and St Annes progress to the third round as they won their respective second round ties.

St Brigids 'B', Erins Hope, Whitehall Colmcille, Trinity Gaels, Clontarf, Naomh Barróg, Fingallians and St Maurs go to battle to retain their senior status in the relegation section.

[edit] Round 3

[edit] Structure

This draw was restricted by a rule that does not allow two clubs who have met earlier in the championship to meet again. Therefore, there was no chance of a repeat of a previous encounter. Round 3 consists of 16 teams, comprising of the 8 losers from Round 2 plus the eight winners from the backdoor system. So, it is 8 games and 8 of the winners progress to Round 4.

[edit] What Happens Next

St Vincents, Erins Isle, Na Fianna, O'Tooles, St Marys, Ballinteer St Johns, Lucan Sarsfields and Kilmacud Crokes progress to the fourth having won their respective games.

Parnells, Garda, Naomh Mearnóg, St Sylvesters, St Marks, St Annes, Thomas Davis, and Naomh Olaf were knocked out of the competition for 2006, although they have successfully retained their senior status for the 2007 Dublin Senior Club Football Championship.

[edit] Round 4

The draw for the fourth round or the last 16 will took place on August 15. The draw comprised of the second round winners - St Brigid's, UCD, Ballyboden St Enda's, St Judes, Raheny, St Oliver Plunkett's/Eoghan Ruadh, Round Towers Clondalkin and Ballymun Kickhams and the third round winners - Kilmacud Crokes, Ballinteer St John's, St Vincent's, Na Fianna, O'Toole's, Erin's Isle, Lucan Sarsfields and St Mary's. The winners of the second round were drawn against the third round winners, they were separated by two distinct lotts meaning the second round winners were kept apart from third round winners in the fourth round draw. The draw revealed a potential tie of the round between current champions Kilmacud Crokes and Ballyboden St Endas.

[edit] What Happens Next

Round four saw the exit of Erins Isle, Ballinteer St John's, Ballyboden St Endas, Ballymun Kickhams, Raheny, O'Tooles, St Marys and St Brigids.

[edit] Semi-Final

The Dublin senior club football championship did not go ahead on the original October 12 date, due to an appeal by St Oliver Plunketts/Eoghan Ruadh and Kilmcaud Crokes.

A decision on the dates will be decided pending the results of Plunkett's appeal which was to be heard by the Dublin GAC on October 13.[23]

The Leinster council had given an extra week for the Dublin GAC to sort the issues. If the problems were not sorted in time, Dublin would not have a representative in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship for the 2006/07 season.[24]

[edit] Na Fianna V St Oliver Plunketts/Eoghan Ruadh dispute

St Oliver Plunketts/Eoghan Ruadh had lodged a complaint objecting to the eligibility of Na Fianna's former Mayo player Gary Mullins who took part in the quarter final clash between the two teams. [25].

St Oliver Plunketts lost their appeal to the Dublin Council therefore the Dublin GAC set the fixture of Na Fianna against St Vincents as planned .

St Oliver Plunkett's how ever took their appeal to the Leinster Council in hope of being re-instated into the Dublin Championship . This furture delayed the Dublin Championship and made it a real danger that the Dublin senior football championship would not have finished in time for a Dublin representitive in the Leinster championship.[26] The Leinster council chose to side with the Dublin GAC and therefore the semi fianl will proceed on October the 19th.

As St Oliver Plunketts lost their appeal to the Leinster Council Na Fianna will play St Vincents in the semi final clash as planned . The game was initially scheduled for friday October 27, 2006 but was cancelled and rescheduled for monday 30 October to make Ireland compromise rules captain Kieran McGeeney be available for the first test against Australia at Pearse Stadium.[27]

[edit] Gary Mullins' appeal to the Disputes Resolution Authority

'Mullins also had a personal hearing with the Disputes Resolution Authority on Friday (October 13) night with regard to a 12-week ban he received following a sending off in Chicago during the summer. He lost this appeal'.[28]

[edit] Kilmacud Crokes V Dublin County board dispute

The Dublin Championship was met with more scandal when Kilmacud Crokes postponed there game against UCD, stating that it was not within 5days of there game against Lucan Sarsfields in the quarter final. This in effect that Kilmacud have breached Rule 116 of the official guide. The GAC met Kilmacud representatives on October 17 to discuss the matter. The meeting of the GAC has resulted in Kimacud Crokes being excluded from the Senior Club Football Championship .[29]

UCD offered Kilmacud a replay thus reinstateing Crokes [30], which would guarantee a Dublin representitive in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship.[31][32] The semi final between the students and the Crokes will take place on Thursday October 26, 2006.[33] [34] Kilmacud Crokes went on to play the game against the Students and were narrowly defeated, giving the Dublin Senior Football Championship its first finalist.

[edit] What Happens Next

The winners of each semi final go on to the Dublin senior club football championship final. The losing teams are eliminated from the competition and there is no third and fourth place games, therefore a loss would prove to be the respective teams final fixture in the Dublin championship.

Dublin Senior Club Football favourites Kilmacud Crokes crashed out of the Dublin championship to UCD in what proved to be a very tight game. UCD go on their first final since 2002. The 2006 final will be a repeat of the 2002 final, as Na Fianna crashed out of the Dublin championship to northside rivals St Vincents. UCD won the 2002 final against St Vincents and vins will be out to retain their first title since 1984.
