5 out of 12. Disappointing but in fairness I don't usually fly to the matches.

Seems to be a lot of lads here with helicopters alright.
That was never a square ball!!

Well you'd know some of them. That's why Portlaoise maddened me. It didn't look like I remember it, and I fecking played there a few times. Like you can see the graveyard in Roscommon, the multi coloured seated open area in Pair ui Chaoimh, etc etc. Semple Stadium and the Gaelic Grounds I'd know well. And if you know some of the others in the multiple choice, by process of elimination you have it.

In Portlaoise the buildings overlooking the ground are only under construction in this pic.

10/12 - raging I got Portlaoise wrong!

Also missed Killarney, I think I was expecting to see mountains ;)

 12 out of 12 although Killarney and Portlaoise were educated/wild guesses. I knew the rest of them which kind of scares/saddens me!!!

If you were any use you'd be playing.

I knew Killarney from the new bit of Terrace down at the back of the goal. It's really white compared to the rest, because it's so new.

12/12 easy enough tbh 8), that was an old picture of markievicz, stand goes full length now, and North terrace is complete,

Exactly the same, although I must admit some 'educated' guesses came off.
