    Dave,
    From memory it's 10 euro in for adults.
    The ground is about 3 miles out of Kilkenny, on the Callan Road, on the right as you come from Kilkenny.
    There's a railing round the ground, good for hanging flags from.
    I'd say you'll have to sneak drink in, don't be too obvious.

    It will be my first home game of the seson. It was a tenner last season. Its 1 of the best grounds in the first division. Loads of places for flags. Just keep the drink in a bag and you'll be sound.

    They asked us to put our empty cans in the bins on our way out. I'd say you'll be fine.
    We're not arrogant, we're just better.

    Kilkenny is actually on unbelieveable spot to go out in, its a great City on a Saturday night. Take in a game of ball and then out on the town .... its actually a great night it has to be said. It is fast becoming the Stag/Hen capital of Ireland. The atmosphere is unreal !!
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Thumbs up

    Not an official away section but almost all away support go to the new stand behind the goal, its a big stand, one of the best in the league and theres loads of space for ye there. No one will mind about the cans either
