The Cork senior footballers insist they will not fulfil their Munster championship semi-final fixture against Kerry in Killarney on May 7th.

In a statement issued last night, Cork players and management say they will only play at Pairc Ui Rinn and have called on the decision to move the game to be reversed by the Munster Council.

It was decided earlier this week to re-fix the game for Fitzgerald Stadium in Killarney, with Pairc Ui Rinn's capacity deemed too small for the expected crowd.

Pairc Ui Chaoimh is unavailable due to the staging of an Ed Sheeran concert.
