Dublin's All-Ireland Football Quarter-Final Venue?

(Oldest Posts First)

The GAA report that quarter-finals, and semi-finals will be winner on the day with venues for those rounds to be determined by the CCCC. While semi-finals and final are Croke Park as always, should Dublin be taking on their quarter-final opponents outside of Croke Park?
Clones and Thurles are probably ideal neutral venues for many potential opponents. Dublin could enter a home and away arrangement with counties like Cork, Mayo, Kerry, Monaghan and Galway should they meet at the quarter-final stage.

As a single header and given likely crowd, I don't think there be too many objections this end. Probably be all set as double headers in Croke Park I'd imagine?

The GAA have announced that Dublin might be allowed a second home game during the group stage. The third group game is to be in a neutral venue but it seems Dublin might be exempt!
