Cork v Donegal Semi Final

[Fear ón Srath Bán]

Lads remember the tall ships show is on as well so lots of roads around city closed off. Cork folks park at Red Cow Luas and Donegal lads park at M3 parkway and get the train to Drumcondra. Less hassle.
Of course that's only if you don't want to sup few 

North Donegal lads won't be heading via the M3 Declan (not unless they want to add 30 miles to the journey)!

Ticket purchased can't wait for this one, one of the hardest games to predict the outcome in years, that is what championship football is all about.

Forecast is for a cold and misty morning on the Anagaire/Áth na gCoire Bridge as the three buses from Naomh Muire move off.

Galway Arms on The Queensway will be showing it

That's the place to watch it alright... Be warned though there's a right few Corkonians about and you'll have to listen to Mick Kinsella talking a load of nonsense throughout the game!   
[/quote]   Thank screanexile,  The Galway Arms it is.  will there be any donegal people there ?  I don't want to be stuck with that cork shower.

Plenty of Donegal cars heading down the motorway this evening, but I can't see Cork bringing a big crowd.

Cork expected to bring around 10000 and they say the demand from neutrals is huge would say this can be put down to the high number of Donegal people living in other parts of Ireland as well.

No word on Donegal team yet

[CorkMan]

A lot of the Cork crowd would be waiting for the final. I'm not being cocky, but it's just the way we are.

I can't call this tomorrow. If anyone can get around, or through the Donegal defense, it's Cork. Our pace and power are on a level Donegal won't have experienced in championship since implementing the blanket defense. Aidan Walsh and Alan O'Connor will be absoloutley crucial, espeacially Walsh. We'll need his athleticism to break tackles and create space for other players. It won't be game for the likes of Paddy Kelly. I feel he needs space to operate and that will be in short supply. It looks like Noel O'Leary will be the one charged with following McHugh. No better man imo. If he can negate McHugh, Cork might win more of the breaks.

No surprises here but I'm tipping Cork, like always. Cork by 4.
