If any of Cork's footballers feel a bit browned off at not being appreciated by their own (hurling fixated) supporters, they'd be made more than welcome a bit further north (in a county just above Galway!)... At least they'd get to play in front of an interested crowd for a change!

There's normally more Tyrone flags in Emyvale during the championship han any where in Tyrone!


Perhaps thats just all the Tyrone people who decided to watch the game in Monaghan, realising what mighty craic we all are down here...

Virginia, Bailieboro, Mullagh in Co. Cavan should be in Dublin with the amount of Dubs living there and the Dub shirts on the tow when Dubs playing. Kingscourt should be in Co. Meath for same reason !!

Carlow town has a distinct Laois feel to it whenever were doin well. Laois flags outside pubs, half the town wearing Laois jerseys etc. A good section of the town (Graiguecullen) is actually in Laois but the whole town goes a bit loopy if we're in a Leinster final or anything and its a great town for pints after we win. Dont know why this is as Graigue and Carlow normally despise eachother but Ive a feelin its cos a good section of East Laois use Carlow as there main town/place of business and alot of the pubs in town are owned by Laoismen and of course the fact that Carlow wont see a Leinster final for a good millenium or so...;)

Emyvale seem to think that they're across the border and by the way some of them seem to impersonate the accent the belong somwhere round ballygawley.

269721 Nice try barrowsider! As much as ye want Graiguecullen it aint going to happen!

As an outsider, Kilcock and Enfield might as well be in Meath. Having said that i'd say for anyone that grew up there it would be an insult of the highest order!

Enfiels IS in Meath
