I wouldn't have much desire to go to Croker to see a depleted Cavan team play a Tyrone that is slowly rebuilding the house (after the collapse last year) at this stage of the championship.  The magic of this stage of the championship is the packed out smaller grounds getting coverage that they never get from cameras perched on dodgy scaffolding.
The teams themselves would probably love a run out in Croker but who's paying the bills?

If Cavan had any backbone they'd demand the game be played in Brewster Park in solidarity with their Kildare brethren.

I think they should confuse everyone by demanding a double-header in Newbridge.

I think everyone should bring white flags to Croke Park on Saturday in solidarity with our Kildare brethren. Just be careful not to disrupt anyone's view with it though.

Sounds like the Cavan lads are bringing theirs anyway.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

Play it in Virginia

The Cavan county board would never pay for the flights, well maybe one way.

Surely a game st Croker is what players want?
I'd say Tyone & Cavan both happy enough

Dublin is as easy got in and out of as Enniskillen or Clones.
It stinks, Tyrone and Cavan should back Kildare.

Now why would Tyrone or Cavan give a shite about Kildare.

Seriously ?
Croke Park allowed to ride roughshod over Kildare today,
Maybe your turn tomorrow.
Gotta love goodwill among gaels

Dumb and dumber. You couldn't make it up.
Always lurking

Always making no sense

My ref was to the gaa, you should go bed earlier too.
Can't the GPA sort this out

The jaded, low-hanging fruit gags in the thread about Cavan people and money etc. might well be more entertaining than the football in this one.

I can't see what all the fuss is about.
Does the Ccc not call the shots and their word is final.
Back in the 2000s some of the Tyrone v Armagh first round games were moved to Clones because of H&S.
If a countys ground isn't suitable to host a game then it's moved. End of.
If Louth were playing Kerry, Dublin or mayo it would be moved.
It's just because Sky are involved that so many are jumping on that band wagon.
Is say offer Croker option to Clare v Armagh or Leitrim v Monaghan and all 4 would jump at the chance.
For most players it's a huge dream to play there on a sunny championship say.
Can you imagine Andorra telling UEFA we won't play outside our own country.

There wasnt much love for Cavan (or the GAA in general) from Kildare when they were coaxing a player from other counties to play for them, falsifying addresses and then making a mockery of the hurling championship in their own county. Not to mention a total disregard of the ethos of the GAA. So while I think Kildare are correct on this issue you will need to excuse me that I dont think our county should be standing in solitary with them in some big protest. Maybe Karma is a bitch?
