Right, this is me list of the spots that actually get the heart going come match day!! Between training, the bar shifts and trying not to miss a single All-Ireland, these are the grounds and pubs that keep Dublin sport alive for me. Croker is home obviously but there's class spots all over the city for a Sunday league game or a big European night. Up the Dubs, deadly stuff!!

Name	Address	City	Sport	My take
1Croke Park	Jones' Road, Drumcondra	Dublin	Gaelic football & hurling	The absolute cathedral of GAA, nothing beats Hill 16 roaring on All-Ireland final day, deadly craic every single time!!
2Aviva Stadium	Lansdowne Road, Ballsbridge	Dublin	Football & rugby	Mad atmosphere for the boys in green, I've screamed myself hoarse here more than once, pure class ground
3The Sunset House	70 Dorset Street Lower	Dublin	Pub for watching matches	Mighty spot for the big screen when I'm not working, packed to the rafters for Dubs matches, deadly atmosphere!
4DCU Sport Complex	Collins Avenue, Glasnevin	Dublin	Athletics & multi-sport training	Where half me sports science labs happen, class facilities for training and testing, proper gear here
5National Aquatic Centre	Snugborough Road, Blanchardstown	Dublin	Swimming	Massive pool for a Sunday swim session to loosen up after a hard week of training, sound facility
6The GAA Museum	Croke Park, Jones' Road	Dublin	GAA heritage	Bring any visitor here before a match, the Hurling exhibit alone is worth the ticket, proper nerdy GAA heaven for me
