Munster face another away trip

Munster fans will face another away-day if they progress to the semi-finals of the Heineken Cup after the ERC confirmed the venues for the ties.

Munster face Gloucester on Saturday in Kingsholm Stadium and should they come through that tie they'll face either Saracens in the Richo Arena in Coventry or Ospreys in the Millenium Stadium.

'We are delighted to have four world-class stadia on stand-by in France, England and Wales to host the various semi-final options,' ERC chairman Jean-Pierre Lux said in a statement.

'This means fans will know exactly where they are going once their team has won through to the last four.'

Meanwhile Munster coach Declan Kidney has named his squad for the clash with Gloucester.

Marcus Horan, Rua Tipoki and Denis Leamy all took a full part in training session with the Munster rugby squad at the University of Limerick today and are all named in the squad.

Munster Squad: John Hayes, Marcus Horan, Tony Buckley, Federico Pucciariello, Jerry Flannery, Frank Sheahan, Paul O'Connell, Donncha O'Callaghan, Donnacha Ryan, M O'Driscoll, Alan Quinlan, David Wallace, Denis Leamy, Anthony Foley, Niall Ronan Shaun Payne, Denis Hurley, Doug Howlett, Kieran Lewis, Rua Tipoki, Lifeimi Mafi, Brian Carney, Ian Dowling, Paul Warwick, Ronan O'Gara, Tomas O'Leary, Peter Stringer.
