The Last Word with Matt Cooper · Kerry To Face Armagh, Dublin To Host Donegal In All-Ireland Series · 15 Jun 2026 podcast

Better Dublin crowd in Cavan yesterday for their Round 2B fixture.

And I suppose they'll hope that this triggers them now to be playing Jim McGinnis as Donegal and memories back to the 2014 All-Ireland semi-final.

But it shows where the Dublin support and maybe the Dublin form is that their manager were thinking we might be better in an atmosphere like Parnell Park where the capacity is 8,500 people.

And they would have seen the hurlers and the atmosphere generated and the noise around the place when they beat Kilkenny a few weeks back in the Leinster Hurling Round Robin.

And they say, maybe we should get a taste of this to try and fire us up.

But obviously what Ger said hasn't followed through.

and it suggests that maybe there's a disconnect there had he not spoken to the uh to the dublin administrators dublin county board about this beforehand obviously they came to some reasonable conclusion having said that when you look at low than down and in a scheme a venue with under 6 000

I would maintain Laud and Armagh would have easily drawn 40,000 to Gros Parc, maybe upwards on that.

But Laud decided, no, our home venue, our best chance is Parnell Park.

I presume that would have been the wishes of their management too.

Dublin have done the opposite of that.

It was their choice.

And I think had they pushed through, they would have got Parnell Park.

Really extraordinary that Armagh were seconds away from putting their feet up that cherished weekend off before the All-Ireland quarterfinals.

Short trip back up the road from Minneskeen, literally 10 minutes for some of them.

And now they find themselves setting off on Friday lunchtime, maybe even before that, to get down to Kerry to prepare for this fixture, which overall really discommodes Armagh's

a broader All-Ireland assault, and obviously it's Kerry they're playing, so any thoughts beyond this weekend just can't exist.

This is it for them now.

So from where they were, but they will rally around.

They have responded to adversity before, Matt, obviously after some of their recent traumatic Ulster final defeats on penalties and extra time and everything, and they've been able to respond and obviously win an All-Ireland title out of that in 2004.
