If its Mayo v Cork then capacity will not be a problem, unless the Cork fan decides to bring his friend.

If we get a home draw tomorrow morning we'll most likely be moved to Sunday. Connacht championship run by Connacht Council (prenty) and qualifiers is All Ireland series run by Croke Park.

If we're drawn at home I suppose we'll be half the week waiting for throw in times!
Can't see a double header happening. For a start we'll have to pay €30 (for stand) that would normally cost €20. Also if we get Longford at home they could bring a few thousand and I think Ros v Gal will prob attract 25k anyway.

Anybody got a report on the minor game??From the Galway thread it appears they were only trailing by 4 points to 2 points after playing against the wind.No score for 10 minutes and then Galway hit 1-1 and never looked back....

From connacht telegraph a few mins ago

The time of the throw-in will not be decided until after the tomorrow morning's draw for the next round of the All-Ireland SFC Qualifers.

In the event of Mayo being drawn at home to Cork, Longford or Kildare, the Castlebar venue could host two games next Saturday.

*should be an open game then.

I'd be wary of Cork away, tbh. You just don't know which Cork team will show up.

According to the bible of Wikipedia Newbridge only has a capacity of 6200. Would it go ahead there?

I don't really mind travelling but the thought of a trip to Cork on Saturday evening isn't very appealing. It probably wouldn't be on TV either if the Connaught replay is on Saturday aswell.

Portlaoise if it's Kildale away I would imagine.

+1 on the prospect of a trip to Cork.

The thought of a trip to Newbridge is the stuff of nightmares...Poky little ground,hardly fit to accommodate such a crowd as would be expected.Nightmare for parking too.

Mayo at home to Kildare.Not a bad draw.

Nope, that will be interesting to see how Connacht Council fk this tickets setup now!

Need to push on with our 2nd half performance.

martyos121

Not the worst draw, I'll get this is nice and quick so I won't have to say it again: Barry Moran has to start.

paulie21

Probably won't be on till next weekend. Kildare are in the Leinster minor final on Sunday have to give supporters a chance to get to both

padd b1975

Happy enough with the draw.
I would put Kildare on a similar level to Fermanagh so with home advantage once again I would be optimistic of progressing.

I have grave doubts the GAA will take that into account,concern for accomodating supporters has never been a top priority.

It's all about the money would be great to get a double header but think one game on the sat and one on the Sunday

seligehgit

Probably more likely to be a double header if the Kildare minors are out on Sunday?

yop

no they will DEFINITELY have the Senior and Minor games on Sunday then at the same time. This is the GAA. Logic doesn't enter their stratosphere.
Home game now, so let Prenty Council find another field for the other 2. Or replay the handpassing final on Sunday.
