Cork GAA Discussion Thread

Every county does have the mad fans. No question. But I was surprised by the amount of vitriol today on here towards Cork last night and today after Limerick's good win. Honestly I don't see it on Reddit and social media and the likes, it feels like quite a "Boards" thing.

I guess they see Cork being a threat and that's a positive I suppose. I'll take that over the years we weren't competitive.

A double header in Thurles Saturday evening would probably have made more sense. There won't be 15k at the Clare Dublin match (i'd expect it to be actually closer to 10k) and, even though ye are supporting in massive numbers the last few years, it's probably the one match this year where you won't have a crazy big Cork crowd so probably no more than 25k sunday?

A near full house Saturday evening would have made for a better atmosphere.

A certain element on here are reminding me of the bad old days of An Fear Rua, which was as an absolute cesspit of a website. The PROC is bit of a circus as well so this place while not as busy i still prefer it. The anti Cork crowd derailing the thread with their sanctimonious and self righteous preaching's about fan conduct and behaviour is getting tiresome though.

Either talk on field matters or go take the high road for yourself i say. In general i don't mind non Cork folk contributing to the thread, but some of them need to get down off their high horses. It would be hilarious if we turn the tables on Limerick in Croke Park in July, so let's just use the middle finger salutes from some of their fans, and their players planting their flags on our pitch as fuel to drive us on for the ultimate glory in July.

I'll be honest losing a third all Ireland final in a row would hurt a lot more for me if Limerick beat us rather than Clare, but for now we better focus on making sure we'll make it there to play Limerick or Clare!

Speaking to an Offaly family today. Frenzy for tickets in Offaly which surprised me. Here in Clare supporters many grumbling about venue and time of game. Gret to see Offaly appreciating their day put. They're not too concerned about probale defeat. Want their day in the sun. Incidentally, in the queue at 2 by the time they got online all stand tickets gone. Great credit to Cork supporters also for yere loyal support. Pity, that we will have to deny ye again in the all Ireland final😀

Nice little future trivia question, Cork footballers are flying to the match Saturday!

Great news about the flight the management and players will be delighted with that. If Don Franco was still around they'd be heading up there on the bus.🤣

Just to confirm both terraces were up for sale earlier. It's looking like a sellout alright, likely to be 85% Cork. Obviously anyone who wants a ticket will get one.

Well done Cork!! Practically keeping the GAA alive with our enormous support

Landers clearly has a gripe with Ben. Check out the O Connor twins laochra gael for context if you haven't seen it! A very good watch

Ya well done. QF attendances are usually way down and I was embarrassed by the amount of people skipped Limerick vs Dublin last year.

Me neither. Thankfully he spends more time talking about horses on that podcast.

Is the cork Offaly game sold out? Or will more tickets become available

Here's the team for later on today. Best of luck to the lads and Rebels Abu!

Just a correction on above regarding the minor hurling today..

It’s on the TG4 App/Player rather than YouTube.
