	An Fear Rua - The GAA Unplugged
		The car parks were large, well stewarded, adjacent to the pitch and well-signposted.
		Nowlan Park also has the major advantage that fans - with the right credentials and password, of course - can get past the ever-vigilant military guard at James Stephens's barracks - just around the corner from the stadium - and quaff copious amounts of drink at heavily subsidised prices.
		The tradeoff, however, was that only a solitary corporal stood in the bearna baoil behind the bar and, thus, by the resulting bottleneck (if you'll excuse the unintended pun), the military authorities managed to carefully ration the amount of drink sold.

	Casement Park - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Casement Park (Irish: Páirc Mhic Asmaint) is the principal Gaelic Athletic Association stadium in Belfast, Northern Ireland, home to the Antrim football and hurling teams.
		Casement Park opened for the first time in June 1953, with Armagh Harps defeating St John’s of Antrim in the final of the inaugural Ulster Club Tournament.
		A major facelift of the stadium took place in 2002, a move which saw more championship games played at Casement Park, and in 2006, special floodlights were added which will enable hurling as well as football to be played at night.

		The County Board have invested â¬3.2million in Wexford Park in recent years, installing a new pitch, a gymnasium and a 10,000-seater stand at the 25,000 capacity venue.
		The truth is that the Park is in a bad location, no parking worth talking about, Iâve seen cars vandalised on numerous occasions, the town side terrace is still out of bounds due to planning restrictions too.
		If Wexford park goes on the market (which personally I hope it doesnt) it typifies everything we have all being saying since we got knocked out of the championship.

		This would suggest that capacity is currently a factor in not considering Nowlan Park for many matches, but with 14,500 seats, and 30,000 capacity that would hardly be true for the likes of Under 21 matches or All-Ireland club semi-finals etc., or for that matter the vast majority of Leinster championship games.
		The Munster championhsip games will not go to Nowlan Park, and it would be a rare enough League Semi-Final or Final pairing that would have Nowlan Park as an ideal venue.
		Kilkenny need to be in a home and away championship arrangement with the likes of Wexford to justify this development to 40,000 as anything other than a "trophy" stadium, and it is doubtful that a championship meeting every two years at a maximum would even do that.

		Croke Park was the scene of Bloody Sunday in November 1920 when during a Dublin-Tipperary hurling match, British police auxiliaries entered the stadium, and in response to the deaths of several of their colleagues earlier, fired shots which led to at least a dozen people, among them Michael Hogan, the Tipperary captain, losing their lives.
		Well, I went to Croke Park on Sunday for the All-Ireland hurling final, and rest assured that those of you who visit the ground for the first time next year are in for a real treat.

		THIS time 12 months ago, the Cork hurlers travelled to Nowlan Park to begin their National League campaign fully aware that they would be facing a Kilkenny side hell-bent on providing their supporters with a modicum of consolation for their unexpected defeat at the hands of the Rebels in the All-Ireland final the previous September.
		Adding to the appeal of this latest confrontation between what have undoubtedly been the top teams in the country over the past two years is the fact that both have made good starts in the league this season.
		Cork were equally emphatic winners over Laois in their only league outing to date at Portlaoise last Sunday (18/02/01) and, even allowing for the poor quality of the opposition, the efficient manner in which they did the business means that they will face into Saturday's test in a very positive frame of mind.

		The Cats have failed to score a goal in their last two championship games and manager Brian Cody was so annoyed with the team's performance against Limerick that he kept the players locked in the dressing room for a half an hour after the game.

		Having secured victories at Nowlan Park and Semple Stadium, a poor Wexford team is hardly likely to give them any real concern.
