It was Newbridge or nowhere and the new cult here is Fraher Field or forget it" So Kieran Leddy Munster CEO says that PJRs Fraher Field or Forget it "Cult" was only an off the cuff remark & holds no substance & is nothing but a ball of smoke. Isnt it great to see our county board chairman so credible! Real finger on the pulse....http://www.hoganstand.com/County/Tipperary/Article/Index/290753

DiscoStew wrote: » Correct but see the promotion of the season ticket on Waterford GAA Facebook and Twitter pages, that part has been removed. May be due to the uncertainty over where our home games will be played in the championship possibly but I certainly won’t purchase one until it’s confirmed first championship game is included.

The only reference to the championship is being guaranteed a ticket for the All Ireland Final should your county qualify. All intercounty league games are included and all club games. The club only season ticket is €120. €80 for entry to all league games seems to be the cost. Given 3 of those are now away after this penalty being imposed it doesn’t make sense to get one in my opinion. Unless Waterford were to get to the league final, then it might work out that you save in the region of €10 - €20.

Kill seems to be used a lot for intermediate games but it’s an awful setup anytime I’ve played there, you’ve to cross a fairly busy road to get from the dressing rooms to the pitch! St Mollersns also have a decent setup but to be fair it’s out of the way As a ‘neutral’ venue given it’s practically in Tipp. Your commenting on state of pitches yet still think you have to cross the road in kill. They built new dressing rooms a long while now.

It would seem the obvious choice to host any of Abbeyside / Dungarvan / Fourmilewater against any of Lismore / Tallow / Ballyduff. Lismore, Ballyduff and Tallow are perfect for hosting any games involving 2 of those 3 teams, although I’m not certain Tallow’s pitch is railed off. I think they have put temporary arrangements in place for such games in the past. Colligan hosts intermediate and junior games fairly regularly, I think it hosted one senior game a few years ago. Parking would be limited there which may be the reason why, the pitch has been in great condition any time I have been there. Of those mentioned Ballyduff is the only one with adequate lighting I think. Stradbally has good lighting also, not sure if it is railed off however. The cork championships are played regularly at these type of venues which creates a cracking atmosphere at the games. The cork venues do have decent size stands in place also however, something which most of the above grounds are lacking.
