I know a topic has already been posted about tickets, however its the allocation of ticket location I wish to discuss. I have heard a lot of talk around Tyrone that all Tyrone tickets are in the Cusack stand upper tier, has any others counties found the same i.e that all tickets for a particular county are for one section of Croke Park?

Haven't heard that but would be interested to hear where people from the specific counties are seated. I myself am in the Upper Cusack but that's where i always am with my season ticket once the Championship comes around. I know all season ticket holders will be in the Cusack anyway.

Also doing the rounds on the rumour mill is that Dublin have been allocated 40K tickets, that can't be right, can it? Checkers (UK) - Posts: 24 - 03/08/2016 09:10:36 1894475 Link

Replying To Checkers: "Also doing the rounds on the rumour mill is that Dublin have been allocated 40K tickets, that can't be right, can it?" No, that can't be right. No reason why we would be and I'd say that's nothing but a rumour. CroiGorm (Dublin) - Posts: 1547 - 03/08/2016 09:42:23 1894481 Link
Replying To CroiGorm: "No, that can't be right. No reason why we would be and I'd say that's nothing but a rumour." No doubt, probably drummed up by some anti-Dub who doesn't go to games. Anyway, still interested to hear where people from counties are seated this weekend Checkers (UK) - Posts: 24 - 03/08/2016 09:51:52 1894491 Link
I heard Dublin got ALL the tickets!! Typical Dubs wha?! Jackeen (Dublin) - Posts: 4097 - 03/08/2016 10:13:41 1894507 Link
cant see why dublin wouldnt be allocated 40 thousand if the other counties only looked for 10 thousand each then that would be about correct. remember its a saturday not a sunday and in 2013 and 2014 out of the 70 odd thousand attendances dublin would have had between 40-45 thousand both times. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 03/08/2016 12:54:54 1894694 Link
Tyrone Season Ticket holders Lower Cusack TyroneUltra (Tyrone) - Posts: 307 - 03/08/2016 13:25:07 1894728 Link
Replying To TyroneUltra: "Tyrone Season Ticket holders Lower Cusack" same as Mayo season tickets BlastCalyle (Mayo) - Posts: 206 - 03/08/2016 13:50:17 1894744 Link

To be honest I don't think its a case of asking for 10k tickets in most counties, more like what you're told what you can get. I know Tyrone put in an allocation and where told that they had to reduce it. Checkers (UK) - Posts: 24 - 03/08/2016 14:03:26 1894759 Link
Can't understand how they were told to reduce it when you consider tickets have returned from participating counties today and have gone on sale on gaa.ie and supervalu and centra. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 03/08/2016 19:51:42 1895010 Link
Replying To hill16no1man: "Can't understand how they were told to reduce it when you consider tickets have returned from participating counties today and have gone on sale on gaa.ie and supervalu and centra." Where did you here that? I know they sold out in an hour and half in Tyrone on Sunday and a hell of a lot of people are going nuts to get their hands on them. I'd say it's more non participating counties that returned them. Checkers (UK) - Posts: 24 - 03/08/2016 20:48:17 1895039 Link

Maybe a few tickets allocated to Kerry for the Junior Final were sent back. GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7344 - 03/08/2016 21:14:39 1895051 Link
Replying To GreenandRed: "I think that non-participating counties only get tickets for All ireland Finals.

Replying To alano12: "nope non participating counties get tickets for lots of games, look at how popular it is for instance bringing underage teams and the like up to croker for quarters and semis and weaker counties rarely have their own team involved" I thought that was just for non-sellout games though ? Fair play though, they should give out more schools tickets for games that'll be half empty. Fill a few seats and give kids the feelgood factor for the GAA that might keep them more interested in it than other sports. GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7344 - 03/08/2016 23:07:55 1895111 Link

My season ticket is always for the upper cusack on championship games jacktheDub (Dublin) - Posts: 944 - 04/08/2016 01:12:39 1895132 Link
