Last Eight
The quarter finals of the Dublin Championship consisted of the eight winners of the fourth round. The games were to be played on the weekend of the 14th of October.[4] The St Brigid's game was cancelled and rescheduled for 17 October 2012 due to the untimely death of Seamus Bonner. The Kilmacud Crokes was also brought forward to the 17th due to their hurling side appearing in the Dublin senior hurling championship final on the same weekend as 14 October. Na Fianna, St Sylvester's, Templeogue Synge Street and St Vincent's were knocked out at the quarter final stage. St Jude's, St Brigid's, Kilmacud Crokes and Ballymun Kickham's progressed to the last four of the competition.

Relegation Championship
Each winning team in the relegation championship avoids potential relegation. The relegation championship works in the opposite way to a normal championship. It is the aim of each team to exit the relegation championship and the only way to do this is by beating the opposition. Only losing teams progress to the successive rounds of the relegation championship. Any team that remains a losing side for the entire duration of the championship can be relegated to the Dublin Intermediate Football Championship although, if the winners of the Intermediate championship already have a team in the senior championship, they are not promoted and no team is relegated. Although, in the case of 2012, no team will be relegated due to a decision to increase the Dublin senior football championship from 31 teams to 32 teams.
St Anne's, St Mark's, Clontarf, O'Toole's, Ballinteer St John's, Fingal Ravens and Round Towers Clondalkin were due to compete in the 2012 relegation championship but the games were cancelled.
