Dublin Hurlers Get Double Header with Footballers

[witnof]

Good news for Dublin hurlers. They play there Q-Final LSHC match on June 7th before the Dublin-Meath match.

Good move to try and get some support in behind them, and also for Antrim that they get a run out at Croker in front of a large crowd. Right step in trying to help push an promote hurling in both counties.

well, they will have to play the hurling match at half time of the football game otherwise the dubs will be still in the pubs. thats whats going to happen. pleased for antrim getting this, nice stay in Dublin the night before me thinks

[PlayWithTheWind]

is there a date fixed yet?

[slow corner back]

Good to generate a bit of intrest/ excitement for the early stages of the leinster championship. But as has been said earlier there will probably only be about 5000 in for the throw in!! Still at least it is a step in the right direction

Happy days - that'll be well worth going to.

Jasus get over it .Did you suffer a heart attack when Antrim and New York played in the Ulster final?
Good idea to have a double header.

I did a we bit of sweating that day!! Two days on the drink, leveled out the differences between the teams some what!

[bredaghexile]

that dublin antrim match should be interesting especially with antrim wanting to prove that they are capable of giving the leinster a good crack at
dublin will be definitely up for it IMO as they would to show antrim that leinster is their domain and not antrims
would tip dublin to nick it (esp as they are playing in croker)

[thejuice]

Thats a good initiative. Even if the stadium wont be full it should get a decent crowd.

anthony daly new dubs manager, to be announced on monday.

[heffo]

It's a great appointment and exceeded my expectations of who they were aiming for...

[slow corner back]

Has Antony Daly moved to Dublin? Last I knew he was running a pub in mid clare and training greyhounds. From a purely hurling point of view he is a top class appointment however are Dublin not one of the ( few ) boards who refuse to pay an outside manager? Bit of a change in policy unless Antony now lives in Dublin.
