ALLIANZ HURLING LEAGUE
Twelve months ago this weekend the Tipperary hurlers were heading to Belfast for the hugely successful Fr. Alec Reid ‘Festival of Hurling’ but now amidst the changed landscape of fixtures they face up to the earlier prospect of Allianz League activity as they head to Ennis to take on Clare in the opening round of this year’s league.
Tipp and Clare are quite familiar with each other in recent times with six of their last ten meetings being contested in the years 2013 to ’17. Of the 55 league fixtures between the sides to date Tipp hold sway with 39 wins under their belt while Clare have 12 and there has been 4 draws. Last year’s encounter before an attendance of 7,254 was the first game since 2009 that a green flag failed to rise as Tipp won by seven with John McGrath (Loughmore-Castleiney) Tipp’s top scorer on 0-10 with 0-5 from frees. Barry Kelly (Westmeath) oversaw affairs in a match which ten players scored for Tipp.
The ten previous meetings up to last year read as follows; 2004 in Ennis – Clare 1-20 Tipperary 1-15, 2005 in Thurles – Clare 1-16 Tipperary 0-15, 2008 in Ennis – Clare 0-17 Tipperary 1-14, 2009 in Thurles – Tipperary 0-23 Clare 0-16, 2013 in Thurles – Tipperary 3-19 Clare 1-14, 2014 in Thurles – Clare 4-15 Tipperary 0-20
and also in 2014 at Limerick – Tipperary 2-24Clare 2-17 (Semi-Final), 2015 back in Ennis – Tipperary 2-19 Clare 0-20, 2016 again in Ennis – Clare 2-13 Tipperary 0-18 (Quarter-Final) and finally in 2017 in Thurles -Tipperary 0-28 Clare 0-21.
Best wishes to the Tipperary hurlers and management as all roads lead to Cusack Park in Ennis this Sunday, January 28th as Tipperary open their Allianz League Division 1campaign with a first round clash against Clare at 2pm. The referee on Sunday will be Alan Kelly.
Tickets are on sale at GAA.IE, selected SuperValu and Centra stores and usual outlets – adults €15 and U16’s go free. Buy before match day and get 20% off adult tickets.
ALLIANZ FOOTBALL LEAGUE
Moving up to the Division 2 of the Allianz Football League following Division 3 success last season, Tipperary deservedly take their place in the second tier of the league as they look to build on last year with Cork providing the first acid test in round 1 this Saturday, January 27th, in Páirc Uí Chaoimh where throw in is at 5pm.
No doubt there will be huge interest once again in the Tipperary football fortunes this campaign and with that interest the team need the Tipperary support base to come out in force behind them as they embark on the quest for further progression.
Recent meetings in the league between the sides is rare with two fixtures in the ’90s the most recent. In the ’97/’98 national league on October 19th, 1997 in Clonmel, Cork were the victors 4-17 Tipp 3-5 and in the ’92/’93 national league on March 14th, 1993 in Cork, once again the home side prevailed Cork 3-11 Tipp 1-5.
The current Tipperary side are well equipped and motivated to turn the tables and what an ideal start to the campaign it would be for an early away victory.
We send best wishes to the Tipperary footballers and management as all head south this Saturday as Tipperary open their Allianz League campaign with an opening round clash against Cork. The referee will be Padraig O’Sullivan (Kerry).
Tickets are on sale at GAA.IE, selected SuperValu and Centra stores and usual outlets – adults €15 and U16’s €5, buy before match day and get 20% off adult tickets.
