Just 5 years ago. In fairness some turn around in fortunes for Derry but they never were a division 4 side anyway.

Quote from: toby47 on March 27, 2024, 09:09:42 AMHow many do we expect to be in Croke Part on Sunday?

According to Crokepark.ie they are expecting 40k and 10k for Saturday.

Optimistic on both counts from Crokepark.ie in my opinion.
They are never far wrong with their expected crowds.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Just four players from that starting team still playing. The new players introduced improved the quality significantly.

Fair play to Leitrim.

A small county population wise and club wise as well as being hit hard by emmigration and lads working away from home etc.

Great to see them play in Croke Park.

And won't be opened. Will many of the Donegal/Armagh supporters stay on for the 2nd game? Won't be many Dubs in for the first game.

I was talking to a few lads last night and they said going home after the Division two final really don't see the point of doing that, but each of their own.

It's is a long wait to the 2nd game, last year i lasted to half time of the Division 1 final after been there for Div 2 Final to beat traffic. Be in no rush this time, try let the Armagh traffic clear.

Extra time in first games is the great unknown, so they build in plenty of extra space for it. Could be penalties too as Armagh are involved.


10 years ago the headline bill in Croker was often delayed for the first game to finish.
