.... something very, very satisfying about belting out the national anthem in Croke Park.

Indeed especially when Ros are playing  ;D
2026 the year of the 9 Cups

I think it's an absolute waste of time. The clubs will never agree to it and as far as the potential of the North playing Ireland at Croker goes, that's not what we opened our stadium to other sports for IMO

Are you saying that you might be prepared to permit the England soccer team, for instance, to play at Croke, but not a team of your fellow Irishmen? Even one including a GAA player like Chris Baird? Or a fellow Fermanaghman of yours like Kyle Lafferty?  ???

Strange, considering Linfield, the owners of NI's home ground (Windsor Park) had no problem inviting their local Camogie team to use the facilities, gratis, when they were in need of somewhere at short notice.


absolutely, no problem with england whatsoever....

I have no issue with the english rugby team playing in croke park as rugby fans are generally well behaved and respectful, the english soccer team should not be allowed into croke park under any circumstances. Do any of you remember what happened the last time england played in dublin? As for the north I suspect that the media / political scrutiny would be so high that the Norths fans would be on their best behaviour.

I think it's safe to assume the Camogie team wouldn't take with them a lot of bigoted thugs to wreck the place.
(probably wouldn't notice if it was wrecked anyway)

i would have no problem with england playing there and obviously would expect them to behave as I'm sure they would now, i think things have improved these past few years. my point was that i wouldn't want ni playing there under any circumstances..

Any tournament like this without England would be like a performance of Hamlet without the prince
