That makes the blood boil the sense of entitlement from this fella and the other 2 lassies in the senate.

You would think the Seanad would have other things to worry about! Oh wait!

really just shows the issue of entitlement in this country alano12 (Dublin) - Posts: 2208 - 12/10/2016 22:17:49 1925550 Link 0 |
As I said at the time, "sure them all a few tickets each, the genuine supporters don't need to attend. Just give the tickets to the over paid paper pushers!" David (Meath) - Posts: 567 - 12/10/2016 22:20:19 1925552 Link 0 |
Apologies, McCaffrey said he can think of 1000 things that make you more deserving of a ticket over being a member of the Seanad!

It's not often that I feel able to speak for vast amounts of people but I think this time I can as I say to those Senators.. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13704 - 13/10/2016 11:09:35 1925638 Link 2 |
sure they'd have only had to hold their noses for 70 minutes plus from the stench of peasantry below them. they were better off watching it at the country club, if the golf wasn't on of course. SaffronDon (Antrim) - Posts: 2385 - 13/10/2016 11:16:21 1925641 Link 1 |
No surprise as Enda Kenny appointed Michelle Mulherin & Burke is one his buddies. Ask yourself what have Burke & Mulherin done in the Seanad that stands out & you know of, nothing. Nothing contributed despite massive salaries & expenses & a massive sense of entitlement, they really epitomise where this country is going. moc.dna (Galway) - Posts: 1212 - 13/10/2016 11:31:17 1925649 Link 1 |
I don't think we should be too hard on the senators. They have no role, nobody likes or appreciates them, and even worse, they have to take all that money. All they want is to be loved so why not offer them tickets to the first round of league games. neverright (Roscommon) - Posts: 1648 - 13/10/2016 15:34:26 1925778 Link 2 |

Mulherin made a show of herself last month on Drivetime with Mary Wilson now you have another sense of entitlement fool in this lad. Dubsfan28 (Dublin) - Posts: 2509 - 13/10/2016 23:20:31 1925966 Link 0 |
I'm sure he attends all the early season games in the depths of January, I'm sure he freezes his backside off sitting on a timber or concrete seat or standing on a breezy terrace for the National League in February or March, I'm sure he attends all the provincial matches and gets drenched watching his team during the "Irish summer". I'm sure he drives almost 300km a round trip to see his home county play in league or championship Richieq (Meath) - Posts: 3734 - 13/10/2016 23:58:43 1925990 Link 0 |
Remember Ireland voted to keep the Seanad and this is what they spend their time to talk about. county man (Limerick) - Posts: 1102 - 14/10/2016 00:10:26 1925995 Link 0 |
Only TDs in participating counties may apply to buy two tickets. All TDS are not entitled to tickets...

I love the language they use. They're effectively claiming that the GAA told them they couldn't buy a ticket, as if they were barred from entering the ground, when in fact the GAA told them that they didn't have an automatic right to be offered a ticket. jason (Mayo) - Posts: 139 - 14/10/2016 08:18:54 1926038 Link 1 |
I have a simple solution to end this "discrimination": end the practice whereby TDs from the competing counties are entitled to tickets for All-Ireland senior finals. Everyone's then on an even keel, simples. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 14/10/2016 15:35:59 1926284 Link 0 |
