What other nuetral stadium with the required capacity can accomodate the crowd?
Cavan is out of commission. Roscommon will probably throw a hissy fit over Enniskillen over it being too close to Monaghan, likewise Sligo being too close to Roscommon so where can hold it.
I would imagine it will be Portlaoise if it comes to it.
Where would you propose it be played?
Tullamore
Tullamore much closer to Roscommon.
Mullingar
Too small.
Ditto Longford.
You’re not going to get somewhere equidistant, Tullamore is the most sensible option
I know you’re not but Portlaoise is more of a middle ground than Tullamore.
You could reach Tullamore from certain parts of Roscommon in about 30 minutes. It’s a good 2 hours from any part of Monaghan.
I can confirm Kildare were bluffing about not showing up at Croke Park. They booked a hotel in Portmarnock and in fact they stayed there anyway despite the game being on in Newbridge. Cian O’Neill was soaking up the plaudits and the sunshine on the Portmarnock Promenade this morning.
surely to be to god the CCCC will get their revenge here and have a world renowned “double header” at Croke next weekend,what other games are on next week?
they could go nuclear here and have a “double-header” (dont you just love it) on saturday and sunday
i referenced 2016 earlier when i attended half of the saturday afternoon “double header” round 4 qualifer between cork and donegal followed by the matchup of, westmeath and mayo… think it might have been the same day as celtic and barcelona in the aviva,
“double headers” are horrific, the hurling crowd would have you believe the all ireland quarter final “double header” is something to behold in thurles, its flat, boring and shit
4 football qualifers and the 2 hurling preliminary quarter finals (venues already decided for these)
where is the hurling on pal?
One game in Carlow and one in Mullingar.
it’ll be “double header” central so
But it would be neutral anyway.
Kildale would expect that now. No home or away at this stage
Siege mentality
Croke Park is unavailable next weekend, Michael Buble is on

saturday “double header”
