Kerry chairman explains reduced capacity

The inability of the main stand at Fitzgerald Stadium to cater for all Kerry and Mayo season ticket holders has resulted in the capacity of the Killarney venue being reduced by over 6,000 for Sunday’s Super 8 fixture.

Kerry County Board chairman Tim Murphy confirmed yesterday that the capacity of Fitzgerald Stadium has been lowered from 38,000 to 31,900 for this weekend’s All-Ireland quarter-final round-robin game.
