Kildare want Croker as temporary home for league matches

St Conleth’s Park in Newbridge is currently undergoing redevelopment and will not be open until the end of 2024 at the very earliest.

Kildare are keen on using Croke Park as their home venue for next year's Division 2 of the Allianz National Football League.​ 

While the fixtures for the league are still being decided on, it appears some provisions are being made for Kildare’s league games to be played in Croke Park. This will be a part of double bills with Dublin’s Division 1 games on Saturday evenings.
