PICTURES: Louth GAA fans in Croke Park for Monaghan clash

As the Louth senior footballers look to make history in Croke Park this Sunday, thousands of fans have made their way to Croke Park for the quarter-final clash against Monaghan.

Gavin Devlin’s Louth players pulled off a famous win earlier this month to reach this stage as they saw off Armagh on a 2-20 to 2-19 scoreline.

It was the Wee County’s first championship win over their near neighbours and was enough to send Louth fans into optimism mode again after a Jekyll and Hyde summer so far.
