Over the last few days throughout Leitrim there are reports of a big demand for tickets for the Connacht Semi-final clash between Leitrim and Galway.

It looks like the live coverage on RTE is not deterring the faithful Green and Gold followers from the encounter against the Tribesmen in Salthill. This support, as Leitrim try and create a 16th man, will be a welcome encouragement to the team in what should be a very exciting event.

One long time Leitrim supporter had a major dilemma when he had to decide onÓgoing to a Neil Diamond concert in Dublin on Saturday evening and making it to Galway on Sunday in time for the game. His solution was simple – after some research and with no expense spared he has managed to get a seat on a private flight from Baldonnell to Carraroe airport – What a supporter !

– Come on the Green and Gold !
