Cork GAA Discussion Thread

I'm heading down to PUC on Sunday. As I'm planning to take the boy (nearly 5) with me I'd like to park as close as possible, but all the official pronouncements advise to stay well away from the ground. Anyone got any insight into parking down there for a League match? The suggestion that it is a 15 minute walk from the city centre strikes me, if memory serves me correct, as being fanciful (and that's before you factor a child into it).

The Marquee site was open to parking for the first double header, can't imagine they won't do the same on Sunday

Go to SuperValu and get an adult ticket for €12, kids tickets are a fiver (only county in the country charging for kids :rolleyes:)

It's €2.50 per game for a child for 2 inter county matches

I don't get why people are complaining about a fiver in a brand new stadium.

If you wanted to go to Cork City it's a fiver for kids 5-12 and a tenner for kids 13-17

Least it fiver all round up to 16 in GAA

It's also €5 for kids tickets in Croke Park for Dublin v Kerry so Cork GAA only county in the country charging for kids

Park up by Páirc Ui Rinn

10 minute walk and you're onto the link quickly after the match as well

Scandalous decision to be charging for U16s. Crowd on Sunday will be about 20% of stadium capacity. Fcuking ridiculous beyond belief.
Effectively charging me €20 if I bring my 5 year old. Retarded thinking by the powers that be. It's a league game ffs. U16s, students, oaps - let them all in free.

U16s are free in KK.

KrustyUCC

Yeah terrible to charge €17 if you buy before midnight Saturday for an adult and a kid for 2 intercounty games in a brand new stadium

€8.50 per game

Do you complain about charges for bringing the same kid to the cinema?

How about Turners cross?

Musgrave Park?

Footballers will be playing Clare at home on Saturday 17.03.2018. Won't be a charge for the kid that game or wasn't for other games in Páirc Ui Rinn

Same as in Dublin that they do not charge kids for matches in Parnell Park, they do in Croke Park

Can't find the article now but Tracey Kennedy said that the CCB are required to charge kids as a health and safety matter

piplip87

Best of Luck lads.

Cavan man myself will be a tough task for us but cannot wait.

. Haven't looked forward to an away game like this in a long long time. Cant wait to see the new Stadium, sample some of the Pubs Saturday night and see a top class hurling match after the football

don't have an issue with charging a fiver, as you say its good compared to other sports.

load of ****e from the board as usual though calling it a health and safety issue. countless events up and down the country which use free tickets to control numbers. should also be very easy issue a ticket with €0 on it in this day and age

Best of luck to Nemo today, about to throw in on tg4

zetecescort

Nemo 0-4 Slaughtneil 0-7 HT. Derry side deservedly in front, Nemo struggling to get posession

ShamoBuc

Nemo got going for 5 minutes in that half.
They will need to find the net in the second half to win I think, playing second fiddle.

Were they against the wind that half? Certainly looked like it...

ShamoBuc

They were with the wind, but it's not much of an issue.

ShamoBuc

Point up ! Tomás Ó Sé trying very hard to pull Nemo back, hitting a real purple patch!

ShamoBuc

Goal! 4 up and playing superbly !

Nah, wasn't at all. Nemo walked themselves back into trouble there too

Felt like that. He loves being the centre of attention.

ShamoBuc

Monster free by Conolly

ShamoBuc

Good few minutes for him, scores another then intercepts the goal kick leading to another Nemo score then scores again 4 up.

ShamoBuc

Nice little side step by Kerrigan, 5 up

ShamoBuc

Ht in ET and Nemo drove at them to go 7 clear, with some great scores but more importantly they have an extra pep in their step, subs have added a layer of intensity also.


7 up !

0byme75341jo28

Slaughtneil falling apart, Nemo should really see it out from here.

Dorgan was fantastic that half.

ShamoBuc

Luke with a goal to finally finish it.
Delighted for Nemo.
Thoroughly deserved.
Subs made a difference.
Nice to see Tomás Ó Sé get a deserved man of the match, he had a very good fame for a fella of 39 years.
Credit to the opposition but it's Nemo's day
8 point in it in the end.

Well done to Tomàs o Sè a straight talking Football man. He is back in Croke Park on St Patrick Day this is bonus territory. Can't belive it was 2004 he was there with his Club .

It was actually a Galway team (Cealtra) that beat An Gaeltacht that year. This year O Se could win it against a Galway team.

The White Feather

Seamus Harnedy has been sent off. I'd say we can almost write this game off now. Going to be very hard with a full half to come and only 14 men

Cork 1-7 Waterford 1-10

31 mins gone in the first half

Itssoeasy

Waterford 1-16 Cork 1-14

What a shambles Cork gaa is at the moment. Hurlers will now more than likely go down to division 1b. Both teams lost again. Not surprised with the footballers they are abysmal. Its going to be a long summer for Cork gaa fans

Ah would you stop. It's only February. Last time we got to a final we got relegated, the league means very little come championship.

I won't stop. Our county teams will be annihilated come championship. We still need to be winning games. Look at the Dublins the Kerry's and the Tipperarya they still want to win games even though it's still only Febraury. Do you accept that a team like Cork with all its hurling tradition and all irelands won should play division 2 hurling next year? Do you accept that Cork hurling is getting so bad that even Kerry can beat us? No disrespect to Kerry. GAA is in big trouble in the county and you can mark my words it won't change anytime soon. Take your head out of the sand man.

ShamoBuc

Pathetic that both teams lost today. The footballers losing to Cavan is bad enough. Hurlers losing to Waterford, a team that didn't look like beating anyone previously, red certainly didn't help.

But the pitch. Jesus it was as awful as the performances, just awful.
Unacceptable that half the pitch was basically a beach.

pakie ed

What is gone wrong with the pitch. Watching hurling on TV at the moment it looks like a sand pit.

DellyBelly

For the money that was put into the redevelopment of the Pairc that pitch is inexcusable. Looks awful on tv

zetecescort

I dunno lads, thought there was plenty positives for the hurlers today. Good spirit to stay in the game and most had good games

There was, certainly. Only for the red I am confident we would have beaten a team that every other team beat handily enough. But we lost and are only ahead of them on point difference.
That's what matters. Now we have a tough game with Tip made all the tougher by needing to win and need a favour from kk. Relegation playoff beckons. Another game though. We shouldnt be in this situation but such is life.
