Anybody been to Moldova? Or Serbia? Georgia? You certainly get around following Ireland.

Derry and Donegal, as Group winners, will be at home for their respective semi-final on 18 May.

How are the quarter final winners drawn against these teams? Avoiding a team in their group?

Its a bit one sided. The home draw for the semi final significant.
Lucky in the GAA that we don't have home semi finals where blue teams can fill the stadium with their supporters and overawe the opposition.

the Dubs can't fill croke Park this time of the year after 14 in a row. Who is responsible for this?

The stadium is never going to be filled unless it's an AI final or at a stretch Dublin against either Mayo or Armagh in a semi final.
When has it ever been any different?
Croke Park has rarely ever sold out for anything but an All Ireland final. This isn't a new phenomenon.

Eh??

On the basis that Armagh have huge support.

Armagh v Dublin 2002 was the first time that the "new" Croke Park was full, albeit with slightly less capacity than now, and a cracking occasion it was. Obviously, Dublin wee in the majority , but there were enough supporting Armagh to create an atmosphere.

But a Leinster final between Dublin and Kildare should be pretty full, that's about 2/3 of the population of Leinster. Unfortunately, Kildare have checked out.

Gutted for the minors this evening, played decent hurling throughout, and unlucky not to have two more goals on the scoreboard which would have put Offaly to the sword. So close.
