No one fills Croke Park for semi finals (except the Dubs playing at home when they get out of the pubs on time) but Cork would bring a larger following than any other county.

This is BS of the highest order. Armagh & Tyrone filled Croker for their 2005 semi-final. Cork and Kerry met in the other semi-final and drew a poor attendance, so much so that when Cork & Kerry met again at the same stage 12 months later, the GAA had to add on a Laois v Mayo quarter-final undercard to guarantee a middling attendance. In fact, all of Cork's football semi-final appearances this decade have attracted poorish attendances, unlike those involving Armagh, Tyrone, Donegal, Derry, Kildare, etc etc.
 

Cork and Kerry didn't even manage to sell out a Munster Final last year so if the rest of country is relying on them to fill the GAA coffers, we are in trouble.

Fact remains that the rest of the Country is now sick of Cork GAA and from talking to people of various counties and reading various forums, many people are now hoping for an early exit for both teams. And there is usually alot of goodwill and respect towards Cork GAA teams despite what Cork people say so once again, well done to all involved.
 

Yes, I was at that Cork V Kerry semi final where the Cork supporters outmanned the Kerry supporters 6/1.
