Kingdom troops forewarned and forearmed

WHETHER Limerick’s compelling Munster SFC victory over Cork will prove seductive enough to lure Tipperary fans to Tralee tomorrow for their provincial semi-final against Kerry remains to be seen.

Either way, the visiting fans won't corner the market on curiosity.

It's nigh on two months since Kingdom supporters have had the chance to run the rule over their representatives in a competitive context defeating Armagh with a gutsy, if questionable display. The last time Kerry broke Championship sweat was last September, and the pain is still fresh enough to be used as ally or enemy to Páidi Ó Sé's players.
