Five-time All-Ireland winner Tomás Ó Sé has said that the uncertainty and confusion over the dates of the Super 8 fixtures is ‘insane and unfair’.
The opening round of the inaugural Super 8 series will see four matches set for Croke Park this weekend but the next two rounds are still yet to be scheduled with the 21/22 July and 4/5/6 August mooted as possible dates for rounds two and three.
The uncertainty over what times and what dates the games will be played has left many supporters frustrated at the fact that such high profile games have been arranged on such relatively short notice and Ó Sé has said that the situation has been a logistical nightmare for the GAA.
Has to be some reason by @officialgaa for it but it’s insane and unfair on counties and especially supporters that they don’t know times and dates for next weeks super 8s and beyond!!! Kildare going to Killarney Dubs going to Omagh. Logistic nightmare 🤯🏐

The GAA confirmed on Tuesday that Roscommon will face Tyrone at 5pm in Croke Park on Saturday while Dublin will play Donegal in the evening game at 7pm.
Then on Sunday Kildare will play Monaghan 2pm while Kerry and Galway will throw-in at 4pm, the same time as the FIFA World Cup final.
