Mayo fans in US queue at 8am in the rain to get tickets for New York clash

Mayo fans began queuing in the rain outside Gaelic Park in the Bronx before 8am this morning in an effort to get tickets for the Connacht SFC clash against New York.

A crowd of over 6,000 is expected for the clash (2.15pm US time/7.15pm Irish time) but it is believed in excess of that has travelled from Mayo.
