Excitement fever pitch but crowds bypass road to Croker

PUBS are expected to do a roaring trade for tomorrow’s All-Ireland senior football semi-final between arch-rivals Cork and Kerry, as fans stay away from Croke Park.

The tills may be ringing in bars, but the county’s finest stadium is expected to host only 25,000 fans from both counties.

Cork County Board chairman Mick Dolan has urged more Rebel supporters to make the trip.
