Mallow on standby to host Munster Club SFC decider

MUNSTER GAA chiefs have placed Mallow on standby if the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick cannot host Sunday’s Club senior football final.

Provincial bosses will inspect the Shannonside venue on Friday morning to see if the pitch is playable for the Dr Crokes-Nemo Rangers clash as the cold snap envelops the region.

However, Munster Council PRO Jim Forbes admitted the condition of the field is just one factor which will be taken into account before a decision is made on whether or not the game will be played.
