Just following Match Tracker and seen the following contribution:
"Leinster SFC semi-final: Dublin 0-4 Laois 0-2

Kilkenny drops over the fourth Dublin point after visiting goalkeeper Corbet is dispossessed in midfield."

So now Dublin's opposition in Croke Park are "visitors".
In this contributor's mind Dublin are at home and Croke Park is theirs. Nurture the Dubs.

It all depends on what you want to hear I suppose.
It could just be that both teams are visitors.

That moment when you realise that Croke Park is in Dublin and not Mountmellick.

I am not your "bud" by the way, and the original reference to "visiting" goes to show that Donegal were correct when asserting that Dublin were getting preferential treatment when playing their second 'Super eight' game in Croke Park.
But today it was the mind set of casting Laois as 'outsiders' that I found annoying and indeed discriminatory. Those days we have to be careful of the language that we use.

Croke park is in Dublin, if Dublin are playing in Croke park then they are playing at home,
we play our league games in Ballybofey, Letterkenny and Ballyshannon, whichever one of the 3 grounds we play at they are all 'home' games. That's just a simple fact.

Its not a politician addressing the nation, just someone who keeps people up to date with scores and no doubt has to type fast without overthinking each post. Maybe afford them some leeway, no?

In fairness Dublin might have breached Level 5 restrictions by allowing visitors into their home. Joe Duffy will be all over this tomorrow.
