Presume all the teams bar Galway will travel in decent numbers?

They’ll do well to get 30k at it

How many did Clare bring to the football in Croker yesterday?

[Big_Dan_Campbell]

Not really, there were around 14k from Clare at the Waterford game. I’d expect most of that will travel but the football crowd may well decide they would rather the days in Croker which will drop it a couple of k as will it being a Saturday afternoon

[Big_Dan_Campbell]

A couple of thousand id guess.

[Batigol]

Best off and wait for the big day against Kilkenny in Croker

[Big_Dan_Campbell]

There will be a section who will feel that way no doubt, mostly the crew who’s first match of the year was the Munster final. Same in all counties

[Breaking_my_balls]

I think Wexford will give it a right go next week. Will be huge outsiders.

[Batigol]

Clare will rest a nice few for this you’d imagine

@Breaking_my_balls

How many did West Clare bring to the football in Croker yesterday?

Fixed.

[mick_jones]

26, 27k max

[Big_Dan_Campbell]

Wouldn’t be surprised

Low 30s is about par for a normal exceedingly attractive quarter-final double header in Thurles.

You can knock about 7 or 8 k off that because it’s a Saturday.

[croppy_boy]

Clare v Wexford in Nowlan Park at 7pm would have pushed 30k.

Don’t worry mate, we’ll batter the cunts.

I’d say ye’ve only played twice in championship in the last ten years and Galway beat Cork comfortably on both occasions. In fact ye battered them in 2015 when Johnny Glynn gave the famous curse interview. Think Joanne went in hard on JBM the same day.

[StoneCold]

There was a full house for the double header in Thurles in 2014, though a lot of the Wexford bandwagon left at half time in their game, which was first.

[the_man_himself]

Could they not throw the URC onto the News channel considering nobody will watch it

That Tipp v Dublin game that came second that day was bleak enough fare in the rain. Particularly when you’d just watched Wexford ship an almighty hammering against Limerick.

The GAA afraid of the All Ireland Hurling Quarter Finals going head to head with Northern Transvaal v Western Stormers. The Pride of Cape Town and Pretoria. It’s quite amusing.

It is in keeping really with the complete lack of occasion that has surrounded Championship 2022 and the sense of let’s get this out of the way and fixtures fulfilled as quickly as possible, whatever time of the day or week we have to play them.

[endakenny]

Has got to be to do with TV rights.

RTE need to show the news/Angeles on RTE 1.

This is RTE’s call.
