Cork have enjoyed the sights on their northern journeys

Apart from against Donegal, Cork's Allianz League road trips north have brought plenty of profit.

Kerry would be considered by most to be Cork’s bogey team but for Paul Kerrigan it was Donegal.

That might sound strange for a man who scored 1-4 against them in an All-Ireland quarter-final in 2009 yet for the remainder of his inter-county career Donegal were largely a source of woe for the Nemo Rangers man.
