It looks like we could have another Kildare/GAA scenario on our hands with the news that Donegal are set to challenge the GAA's decision to host their Super 8 tie against Dublin in Croke Park.

Croke Park was confirmed as the neutral venue for the clash between the two counties earlier today, with the Leinster and Ulster champions will set to meet at GAA HQ on Saturday the 14th of July at 7pm.

But in a statement Donegal have questioned how Dublin can use Croke Park as a neutral venue as well as a home one:

C.L.G. Dhún na nGall are to seek a meeting with GAA Officials to seek clarification on how any County may use a ground as both neutral and a home venue.

The intention of the meeting is to ensure a level playing field for every team who will qualify for the All-Ireland quarter-final group stage and ensure that no team has any advantage over any other team.
