He didn't see the incident, he ignored nothing.

He ignored the Clare keeper thinking he was playing a rugby match charging down a conversion.

There was a lot of incidents that involved fouls on Clare players that he didn't see or chose to ignore then.

Agree about the tickets but the weather is promised bad

Have a look at this, http://www.yr.no/place/Ireland/Leinster/Croke_Park/hour_by_hour_detailed.html
At the moment it is potentially forecast to rain at about 18:00 with rainfall predicted by 19:00. However, this updates/changes every couple of hours...
Weather forecasting is almost as unpredictable as the result of tomorrows showdown.

As for the tickets.....

A news article that doesn't try to paint Davy as a crazed puppy-kicking arsehole that's out to crush the hopes of a bunch of gifted young hurlers with his antics.

What a breath of fresh air :rolleyes:

Nice in Dublin now, lets hope it stays like this for tomorrow. Best of luck to everyone heading to the match and may the best team win

Tickets got! So excited!

What's everyone's pre-match plan?
Big Tree/Quinns etc.?
It's a pity they don't play clare/cork songs before the game. There's only so many times you can listen to that same Christy Moore album on in the Big tree on repeat!

If your a cork man the Gresham hotel have all the cork fans build up to the match.

I see Cork have made one change, Cian McCarthy in for Coughlan. Perhaps McCarthy would be better to help them a grip into the game early, Coughlan can be a sub later.

Clare announce an unchanged team.
The Indo speculates that either Cathal McInerney or even Shane O'Donnell could take Honan's place.
I'd be surprised if Davy would do that to Honan after naming him to start.
But the mind goes back to 1997, when his fellow Bridge man Niall Gilligan started after not being named to keep him out of the spotlight, and that worked out well. So you never know.....

TOTS,
that is all.

Shane O Donnell

Henno30 · 27-09-2013 06:17PM

Cathal McInerney seems the best fit for Clare at the moment, especially with his two clubmates alongside him. All the talk at the moment points to O'Donnell though.

Tots would certainly add a different dimension and he'll surely do so in the future. Hard to see him featuring tomorrow however given the little game time he's had.

Can somebody recommend a particular place in London to watch this?

I'll have to jump straight on the tube to Heathrow after so somewhere west of the city centre with easy access to the Piccadilly line.

It's more christy Moore type CDs as opposed to Clare n cork songs

The rain won't start until 7pm.

Well it's debatable whether "minimum of two minutes" can equate to two and a half minutes.

No it isn't.

Waiting for the train in now, butterfly's are starting to kick in. Hopefully we can finish the job today!!

He did say "hopefully"
Not like many of the Cork fans engaging in absolutes
"We will be better" "Clare won't ever play as well" "Liam is coming home"

Neither a Cork or a Clare man, but hope the trophy is heading to Clare tonight!

brilliantboy · 28-09-2013 02:02PM

Has the Clare subs bench been announced yet? Haven't seen it anywhere.
We could be in for a surprise of some sort?

Da Shins Kelly · 28-09-2013 02:19PM

Not really invested in either team, but I'm gonna root for Clare this evening. Really hope they do it!
