Saturday’s refixed All-Ireland club senior football championship semi-final between Dr Crokes and Errigal Ciaran has been moved to St Conleth’s Park in Newbridge.

The match was due to take place in O’Moore Park but after an inspection on Wednesday afternoon, the pitch in Portlaoise was deemed unplayable and a decision was taken to switch venues.

The meeting of the Kerry and Tyrone champions, which was postponed last weekend due to inclement weather, is now scheduled to take place in Newbridge at 3pm on Saturday.

The second semi-final between Coolera-Strandhill (Sligo) and Cuala (Dublin) remains fixed for Breffni Park in Cavan at 5pm on Saturday.
