One particularly noticeable thing at yesterday's game was the huge mayo support. Question is how really is the ticket allocation being done. The split in my opinion was at least 60:40 in mayo 's favour. Have a look at the tv footage from all around the ground and it can be plainly seen. Obviously there is an insatiable hunger in mayo to see them end their famine and there will always be the argument about them having a huge overseas contingent coming home from the game but lets be having you GAA have an equal ticket allocation for replay, reduce your prices and issue discounted tickets for children and families. Final should be for the real supporter. Adamski (Dublin) - Posts: 339 - 19/09/2016 07:37:44 1915993 Link 1 |

Just got the email there from the season ticket folk in the Gaa. Thankfully the young fella's replay ticket is only €10. Not being posted out either. Will be able to log in and print them off on Friday. CroiGorm (Dublin) - Posts: 1547 - 19/09/2016 13:39:04 1916265 Link 0 |
Mayo certainly looked to have got the bulk of the tickets alright. Dubh_linn (Dublin) - Posts: 2312 - 19/09/2016 14:25:38 1916316 Link 0 |

Shouldn't be too difficult to get a ticket for the replay Superglue (Kerry) - Posts: 1283 - 19/09/2016 15:19:19 1916354 Link 0 |
The fact that there's always about 30 of us all go to the same part of the hill and are together at games all year and yesterday There was 10 only and yet you see the place filled with 13-17 year olds from mayo who seemed to be able to give anybody who wanted a ticket one, while all the people who go all year missed out at their expense. seems wrong that you can have a larger support at a provincial final than the all ireland final. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 19/09/2016 15:42:42 1916384 Link 0 |
At least there will be a few extra going to clubs with no minor game being on. dubshurling7 (Dublin) - Posts: 1017 - 19/09/2016 15:49:10 1916396 Link 0 |

just saw there are €10 concession tickets - Well done and fair dues to the GAA on this one, hope all parents and kids going as a result of this excellent initiative have a great day janesboro (Limerick) - Posts: 1502 - 19/09/2016 16:21:07 1916434 Link 0 |
Half of them would be club members the other half tried getting on the Parnell pass and season ticket schemes but no joy as only open to renewals in dublin the last few years. They get tickets through supervalu all the time.

Yeah that's good but very unfair that the hurling replay prices went down to 50 stand and 25 hill/nally now the football replay is 60 stand and 30 hill/nally hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 19/09/2016 16:47:50 1916462 Link 0 |
hill16man - thats a balls for your pals esp the ones who are club members, more so if they coaching or player or involved in some way chances are their club got lot less tickets then members , not the clubs fault either and i agree put the prices the same as previous years hurling replays. hopefully the replay be a bit easier to get janesboro (Limerick) - Posts: 1502 - 19/09/2016 17:12:07 1916487 Link 0 |
Good to see the reduction. Pity hotels wouldn't take pity on us Mayo fans though. The bank account is getting a fair shake. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11231 - 19/09/2016 17:17:42 1916492 Link 0 |
There was a huge amount of Mayo people on Dorset Street well ahead of the throw-in yesterday. I was there an hour before the minor game to pick up my ticket and all of the pubs en route were packed with green and red jerseys. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 19/09/2016 17:40:23 1916505 Link 0 |
Did you book last night or today? Booking last night you'd have gotten a cheaper rate as the depts responsible for amending rates for busy weekends work monday to Friday only. Anyone that booked today got the pleasure of increased rates that went up this morning.
