Big Croker crowd expected as Kingdom come in numbers

UPWARDS of 15,000 Kerry fans will be in Croke Park on Sunday to cheer on their heroes in the eagerly-awaited All-Ireland football semi-final against Cork.

By Kerry standards, this is a lot as followers of the green and gold have traditionally not attended semi-finals in any numbers.

But this time they’ve answered Kerry GAA chiefs’ calls to roll out their colours and roar on the team.
