Ticket hike won’t deter Leitrim supporters, says McGoldrick

THE decision of Croke Park to charge €35 for a stand ticket for Saturday’s All-Ireland JFC final in Thurles won’t pose any difficulty for Leitrim who play Waterford in the decider.

The game is a curtain-raiser to the All-Ireland SHC quarter-final replay between Clare and Kilkenny and, according to Leitrim Co PRO Sean McGoldrick, will afford the county the chance to see a top class hurling game first hand.

“We don’t get to All-Ireland finals too often and while the price is a bit stiff, there won’t be any complaints from this county,” said Sean.
