Final turnout may hit record low

The Munster Council are bracing themselves for one of the lowest crowds for a provincial senior football final in the last 50 years.

With Cork and Clare’s hurlers both in action tomorrow evening, Munster deputy chief-executive Enda McGuane admitted the counties’ football decider in the Gaelic Grounds will be affected.

Indeed, Clare PRO Syl O’Connor fully expects the crowd in Cusack Park for their SHC qualifier against Dublin to be bigger than the total number that turn up at the Gaelic Grounds.
