If you’ve ever watched the Walking Dead, it’s like an episode of that ;)Quote:

Awful location, by far the worst in PL, the surrounding area resembles some soulless city in the US sunbelt, except it's up a windy rainy mountain, I recommend ye bring the sandwiches with ye and have a picnic out of the boot of the car in Lidl carpark.Quote:

Lads don't park in the LIDL car park if yer driving up, you'll defo be clamped, park in the Square car Park, only 2-3 yoyos but safe as a house and only 5 mins walkQuote:

Lovely addition to the area. If you hate yourself but want a pint across from the stadium there's the Maldron.Quote:

With comments like that, I'm wondering who the real mucksavage is here 😄Quote:

Fair play, I assume we can expect the same turn out to Finn Park on Monday 13th? ;)Quote:

The biggest game coming up then in Kerry's short history. I think there's a grounded reality about the challenge ahead of Kerry. Hard to gauge the expected travelling support when tickets are unassigned. Kerry's league form hasn't exactly galvanised support. Getting to a playoff semi final might have been expected before an FAI Cup semi final.
Hopefully Kerry will have good support on Sunday. Semi finals won't come around too often. Many clubs can attest to that.
Did I hear correctly that there's talk of a fans protest at Turners Cross this weekend? Strange timing, no?
Makes sense to do so when RTE cameras visit the ground, to get maximum publicity?
That'll really help cork in their quest to get to a cup final eh!Quote:

We never saw anything like that with clubs like Sporting Fingal, Kildare County etc. So fair play to Kerry, who seem to be successfully tapping into the county despite being a new club and not setting the league table alight.Quote:

i would say there is a very strong chance of it being called off. the rain is absolutely horrendous thursday and most of fridayQuote:

Taking after their GAA equivalents who only get any way interested at the semi final stage!Quote:

I'd say some of Sundays support will be Dublin based though.

I'd agree, the amount of fan groups releasing statements this year has been utterly bizarre. When I was a young fella going to matches the height of the diplomacy in section O was who was bringing the flags and the drum and had we enough to run a bus away.Quote:

Bigger fish to fry. Understandable. Three home European games coming up over the next few weeks.Quote:

Agreed, thought it was very poorly written. They don't make it clear what they actually want to see happen which should surely be the bones of any statement.Quote:

They want their club to spend more money than everyone else on top players and to win trophies basicallyQuote:
