A lot of these posts criticising Louth's decision come across as entitled to me. Louth can choose to play their home games wherever they want, Inniskeen must meet whatever (loose) criteria the GAA have set for grounds. Worth noting it is double the capacity of Ardee at 6k

I'd argue playing this in Parnell or Croker wouldn't attract much more than a 6k crowd anyway. Only by playing it in Navan would the Inniskeen capacity be exceeded and Louth aren't going to give us home advantage

There was 8.5k at it in Parnell in 2016 and Louth are certainly better supported now than they were then. I didn't realise Inniskeen could hold 6/7k. Tickets probably won't go much further than the supporters who buy the 3 game pass. I just hope that every supporter who buys that pass can get in. Game not being shown on GAA Go either. LMFM will break their record for listeners :)

I would have expected pected about 12k if game had been held in Breffni.
Louth going well and Meath's first time in the group stages. Both targeting this game.
