I see the utterly tedious argument of racing to be underdogs has started already. Why fans of sports teams crave being called underdogs but then get upset that their team gets no credit I will never understand.

Cork are favourites and current Munster champions. I have not heard anyone, anywhere write them off, particularly in their match up now with Limerick. They are established favourites with all the bookies to win this game, yet some people still think they are considered the underdogs.

Limerick will give them bags of it, I expect it to be a tight game and I wouldnt write off either side. I do still feel Galway are a step above all 3 teams left.

Mokuba

Fully expect Limerick to win the semi final.

They will feel like they were the better team in the Munster game, especially playing a lot of that game with 14.

Will now relish another crack at Cork, as Waterford did last year.

Happy to put my neck on the line with this prediction.

You have to laugh at posters on boards playing mind games with each other re underdog and “it suits us” and “everybody expects x to win” etc like it matters one bit to the outcome. No matter what supporters do or think the players are the ones who prepare and play the game.

Also on sale in centra. They seem to be releasing section by section. I'm not particularly happy with the seating I got but I'd prefer to just have them sorted.

Davy Fitzgerald was very satisfied in his interview after Clare gave his Wexford team a right hammering at the weekend. It was as if he was happy Clare were through to next round
He should step down as Wexford manager he is nothing short of being an awful manager.

It was very obvious wasn't it? He seemed so serene and relaxed. I don't know, the world's gone mad. :rolleyes:

Why are they not releasing upper stand tickets for the Cork/Limerick game? are they afraid that they won't sell out the lower stands or something?

They won't open it up till they sell a decent amount of lowers first. Should be selling them by next week.

Slieve Gullion

You'll get upper stand tickets on match day from the ticket office on the Drumcondra road.

Will Galway V Clare break 40k in attendance?
Limerick & Cork will bring a mighty crowd in fairness, in or around the 60k mark.

Pity there isn't some form after a weekend ticket available,

I think the Cork/Limerick game will match last years Waterford semi - I expect a massive Cork and Limerick crowd - I think we are looking at another 72,000+

Ray Donovan

Can definitely see Limerick vs Cork break the 70,000 mark. Those two and Wexford are probably the three counties who bring the most to matches when going well.

The traffic on the M8/M7 is going to be cruel for the Cork/Limk game... trains sold out already!

Tried to order 2 adult and 2 kids tickets earlier on tickets.ie but none available......crazy stuff this soon into the ticket sales. Now i cant even get lower cusack tickets, so no kids tickets available:mad:
They should show what seats are available and let people choose where they sit like what happens in the aviva. At least then you could choose seats close together if not side by side.

Would there be a better chance of getting seats together in Supervalu or Centra?

Assuming they'll release more tickets as time goes on..

Still though. It's very unfair to people who like to book early to get good seats. Only terrace tickets available online now.

yes, had that very smug contented look on the face, talked more about Clare than he did bout Wexford, if I was a Wexford fan I'd be angry as hell with his attitude, if he doesn't go they should boot him out at once

The ticket system is a joke. I tried to buy a ticket in supervalu yesterday for myself and the youngfella. Corner section row h is what I was offered. Asked if there was anything else or if they could refresh. No go, take it or leave it. I took it knowing I'd sit where I felt like when I went in there as it was going to be empty.

The system is a shambles and completely customer unfriendly. Offering tickets to sit in the rain where sheltered seats were available. The top brass are a bunch of overpaid idiots.

100 % . you hit the nail on the head there. He was usually frustrated when he lost with Clare but he was smug and happy after the game the last day. Wexford should give him the boot fast.

Sick to death of looking at Davy on the sidelines and in interviews.
Ok, he gave Wexford hurling a shot in the arm by getting promoted to 1a and beating KK in champ last year but have they really progressed under Davy?
He is a money man first and foremost. Wexford are paying him huge money to manage them.
If I was Wexford I would throw that stupid football Sweeper system in the bin and get a passionate Wexford man in to manage them.

Outside managers don’t work, never have and never will!
