Football in Musgrave Park!

Pure_Cork

I know this is a rugby forum but it's not often you'll see Cork City playing in the home of Munster Rugby in Cork. There'll be two pre-season friendlies in Musgrave Park, starting this Friday against Shamrock Rovers. They should be two good entertaining games against the League winners and Cup winners.

Cork City v Shamrock Rovers, Friday 4th February, 7.45 pm
Cork City v Sligo Rovers, Friday 18th February, 7.45 pm

Admission: Adults €10; Under 16’s (Accompanied) Free

Making this about Munster Rugby, Munster Rugby's CEO recently stated that he wouldn't mind discussions about a long term groundshare of Musgrave Park with Cork City.

What do Munster fans think about this. I personally wouldn't mind as I think it is needed to pay for proposed redevelopment of the ground.

There's no point in having 2 crap run down stadia so close together, especially considering how little Munster use Musgrave. Would be a good idea imo. The only problem could be the clubs who use Musgrave, how many games are played on it in a season?

i cant see any problems.

if the stadium is not in use when the football people want to use it why not let them.
