After the last time meeting between Cork City and Cobh Ramblers in the First Division, the Turner’s Cross surface was deemed unplayable for almost a month.

That was due to the horrendous weather conditions in Cork around the time, and on the night in particular, rather than ferocious nature of the derby known locally as El ClasiCork.
