All Ireland Club venues

(Oldest Posts First)

Could the Gaa not have had 2 double headers for its club Semis rather than 4 different venues that probably won't attract 1000 per venue. If the Sarsfields and Castlebar matches were played as a double header 1pm and 2-30pm in either Cavan or Navan . The other 2 semis could be played in Portlaoise thus giving punters a bit of value for money. Poor planning by the fixtures committee

There's complaints about the venue choices for these games every single year no matter the decision.

Damned if they do...

Somehow I doubt the pitches are fit to accommodate two matches in-a-row at this time of the year.

Exactly MesAmis, if the GAA did what we wanted them to do wed find another reason to complain.
Lets just enjoy the games eh?

venues are ok by me but I think a 6.15 throw in is a bit late at this time of year to be taking people from cross and castlebar on a journey on country roads. I know they want to show all the matches live on TG4 but could they not have just deferred coverage of one of the games. Anyway best of luck to all 4 teams.

I would imagine some of the Cross ones would be used to journeys late at night on dark country read.
