The 1973–74 Texaco (All-Ireland) Cup was the 1st edition of the Texaco (All-Ireland) Cup, an association football cup competition featuring teams from Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The tournament was a version of the Texaco Cup that featured teams solely from Ireland; teams from both jurisdictions had previously competed in the Texaco Cup but had not participated the previous season due to security concerns.[1]
