Replying To Scenicparish:  "I would beg to differ. Armagh hadn't the bottle to put us away when they were 4 points up. If we were in the same position I think we would have managed the game better and seen the match out."
I suppose the worry for Donegal is that they allowed Armagh get into what should have been a winning position and fair dues to Donegal they didn't blink but Armagh surely did. However there's near half a dozen teams that would probably close out the game if they were in Armagh's position.

Replying To Ulsterchamps72:  "After the scramble for tickets for the Ulster final, the 3 match package is great value and guarantees entry to the Tyrone game. If we could only get the exact date for the trip to Cork in order to book a hotel it would be great. Where will the Clare game be played? Sligo, Tuam, Castlebar or Roscommon. They'd hardly bring us to Salthill."
Would Tuam not be better for both teams and think capacity would suit. Difference of about 15-20 minute for Donegal, closer for Clare.

Where can you buy the three match package? Can't see a link on GAA site.

Thanks all for the replies, Saturday would be preferable and with the new motorway from Tuam to the other side of Limerick the journey is a now bit easier. The new stadium is very good with brilliant views. For those who've never been there before parking is very good in Cork city, with the Stadium only a short walk (20 mins) from the city centre, I usually park at the City Hall Q-park. There are also loads of taxis that do drop offs a few hundred metres from the pitch. Would they move it to Pairc ui Rinn if the expected crowd is small?
As for the Clare game, Tuam or Roscommon look the most central if you take the mid-point from Malin Town to Carrigaholt in west Clare. Carrick on Shannon is closed as there is a new pitch been layed. I just hope they don't drag us to Croke Park as part of a double header with Galway v Armagh or Dublin v Mayo.
