Re: Allianz FL Division 4 2013

It's a fair question " Is Croke Park more spacious than other GAA venues ? " Well in it's physical dimensions it is wider than many others though not O Connor Pk which is one of the widest and longest.Here are a few to ponder :Croke Pk 144.5 x 88 m , O Connor Pk 145 x90 , Hyde Pk 145 x 90 , all on ...

Re: Allianz FL Division 4 2013

I agree totally with B na M man as regards the contrast between how we tried to defend "man to man" before this season and got destroyed and how we now flood the defence with players to good effect.Of course this is not attractive football and neither do we have it perfected by any means but this ...
