Casement Park in line for major overhaul - 40,000 all seater Stadium.

Fair play to Antrim, hope they put it up to Armagh now.

Hopefully they do for all concerned
Definitely the right decision
Am assuming all patrons get tickets

Shame on the Antrim players and shame on the GAA for backing down

By my reckoning that decision has cost the GAA in the region of £300,000 in lost revenue.( 10,000 people @ £30 a head).

Will be thinking about that the next time someone asks me to buy a ticket for a raffle or sponsor something.

Ye raging?

Disappointed but not surprised

I'm going to buy a ticket and not even go just to keep an Armagh one out.

"Hello, is that the PSNI? I'd like to report a burglary...."

No idea what went on behind the scenes, but the right outcome.  If the Ulster Council realised the error and flipped it then fair play, no one never made a decision which with hindsight they could've done differently. Reality is the Armagh season ticket holders will have plenty of other days to look forward to.

100% agree Spartacus, in hindsight UC should have just come out and made their case purely on financial grounds, and it would have got much less of an emotional response, and more of a realistic one. Imo.

It's a case now of a bird in the hand, still a payday of sorts, and some Armagh supporters can settle for the TV that day and look forward to bigger days out.

Game fixed for 12.30pm on Saturday 12th April.

[Rossfan]

That time is one way of  keeping the crowd down!

Fair play to Antrim. Money shouldn't come into it.

Was that interview not before the meeting which confirmed the venue?
Ulster council do not come out of this well in any case.

My bad, the interview was before

Why the early throw in at 12:30pm, it's not exactly a Celtic v Rangers scenario.

Armagh LGFA in league final later that day, to allow supporters to go to both games

That explains it, thanks, fair enough reason.
