Leinster Council chairman Seamus Howlin is predicting an attendance of between 60,000 and 70,000 for next Sunday's Leinster SFC and SHC double-header at Croke Park. The historic Leinster SHC meeting of Dublin and Antrim will be followed by the glamour Leinster SFC clash of old rivals Dublin and Meath. But the prospect of the games attracting a full house of 82,300 appears unlikely according to the Leinster chief. "Obviously, we'd be delighted if the crowd for next Sunday matched that for the drawn game of two years ago between Dublin and Meath," Howlin said. "But the reality is that people don't have as much money in their pocket as they had in former years. Nevertheless, despite that fact, we'd be hoping for a crowd of between 60,000 and 70,000, and we'd be very happy with that figure." Tweet
