Two mouth-watering semi-finals are on the way in January.

Newry and Thurles venues to host All-Ireland football club semi-finals

Both games will take place on Sunday, 7 January.

THE FIXTURE DETAILS for the All-Ireland SFC club semi-finals have been announced, with the final-four clashes set to be decided at venues in Newry and Thurles on Sunday, 7 January.

Roscommon and Connacht champions St Brigidโ€™s will take Corkโ€™s Castlehaven at Semple Stadium. The Roscommon outfit go into the tie after defeating Corofin to claim provincial honours for the first time in 11 years. Castlehaven progressed after they outlasted Dingle in the Munster final at the weekend, edging out their Kerry opponents in a dramatic penalty shootout in torrential rain.

The other semi-final will be a repeat of last seasonโ€™s controversial All-Ireland final as Glen and Kilmacud Crokes renew their rivalry in Newryโ€™s Pรกirc Esler. Glen retained their Ulster crown after rallying to victory against Scotstown, while Crokes completed a Leinster three-in-a-row after defeating Naas last weekend.

Extra-time will be played if required to determine a winner on the day.
