Not sure how to put up a link but if you Google www.irishmirror.ie/sport/gaa/dublins-percentage - gaa-games develooment-2351890 you should be able to get it Username. You did read correctly the other day but it was a mistake now they re saying.

Talk about making a balls of yourself !" You'd know all about making a balls of yourself catch, remember when you said Donegal would hammer Cavan in the Ulster final ? Classic.
And hi I'm still not 100% sure where mick is from, I haven't seen his birth cert and I'm sure neither have you.

The same empty cans making noise, passing out the same old tired lines with nothing to add to the actual point being discussed. Its a pity there are no moderators on here that would clamp down on it.
Anyways to the point at hand, yes there is always going to be a shortfall when the GAA are missing out on multiple all ireland finals (and replays, where they can be generated for more money... wink wink nudge nudge), semi finals, and dublin matches with full houses that generate most of the revenue for the GAA and they're missing out on the 3-5 concerts a year that are also held at HQ. That is the main driver of revenue behind the GAA.
Its great how everyone will complain about the Dubs and home advantage but fails to realise the full houses at HQ they generally provide are a source of a lot of the GDF funding the GAA then dish out to counties.
Don't know if they are generating much from GAA Go, but that's definitely something to look at seeing as many counties are never on TV. A few more teams with detailed analysis of the games could be a real earner. The Sunday Game highlights is now a joke show which goes over the main matches that were already live on the Sunday Game for an hour and then show brief clips of the lesser games. Look at the premier league they now show all games, that's something RTE/Virgin/Eir/Gaa should look to exploit. Have a team (presenters and analysts) at each venue and let people see their own counties and have a bit of analysis of their games. I'd have no issue paying a few quid a game if i knew i'd get decent coverage of Meath with a presenter and analysts giving their views on the game too. I'm sure i wouldn't be the only one.

Nice to see you still using the same passive aggressive approach to your posts brian.

Ya you seem like that sort of Trump like head the ball alright Tommy that would be looking for birth certs and believing your own version of reality.
With any luck they'll ban you from social media and GAA forums too so you can't be poisoning the poor misfortunes that are impressionable.
And, hi , Kerry lost the last election too whether you accept it or not.
Now away with you back to your sun bed and get a hair cut ya malogan.

It's a lot of money relatively speaking, but with an informal eye on it, it's a reduction of just South of 50%, that seems the same for most counties to varying degrees for every county.
Big winners are Antrim, hopefully the investment in Gaelfest proves meaningful. Don't know what's going on with Down and such low funding, the only thing I can think of is it's proximity to Antrim and they might have radius benefit from Gaelfest,

Good post Brian and yes more coverage should be given to the lower tier counties. I'm sure sometimes the fame can be more entertaining too. On TV and sponsership I was talking to a Tyrone man last year and he said that the Tyrone sponsership were not happy with Tyrone Co. Board as Mickey Harte or Tyrone refused to speak to rté which meant the main sponser was missing out on advertisement that other counties were getting. I wonder with Harte gone will Tyrone go back doing interviews with rté. I can understand the spinsers grievence there.

I'm not sure if Logan is a bit prickly for interviews,think he was involved when their U21's beat Tipp and they accused of roughing up Tipp on TG4 and he was having none of it. Dooher was always a great public speaker so maybe he'd be the one to do the interviews.
Definitely think if they showed more games could generate more sponsorship and advertising revenue for the GAA. Team sponsors as you say would also welcome a bit more exposure even to a smaller audience.
Showing more games might also expose us to the next Declan Brown, Emlyn Mulligan, Leighton Glynn, Gary Brennan, John Galvin type player that we rarely ever got to see live on TV. And if the GAA is serious abut secondary competition's (a new Tommy Murphy cup) then they have to be prepared to show more games and at least give those players a platform and more than just a role as a warm up act. They new to build up something like that properly for the players, supporters and sponsors if they hope to make money off it.

It's a strange one for sure. Yes good to see Antrim getting a few quid but I guess they need all they can get with the upgrade of Casement Park badly needed. Don't know story with Down either.

Replying To CiarraiMick: "I'm just after sering that the Gaa actually increased Dublin's percentage of funding again. Although down 600.000 their percentage was up as other counties received less. Now this is disappointing as we were led to believe that the gaa were starting to do things more fairly. However it seems the figure they said the gave Dublin was a mistake. A big mistake. The gaa said they gave Dublin 86.990 last year but when the truth now is the received 745.695e..Now I have always stayed the money thing is wrong but this is bizarre as false info was given out to the public but when John Connellan was promised figures it transpires the gaa made a mistake. Now while I agree again this is not Dublin's fault.the gaa once again are showing special treatment but trying to hide it too. Wrong is wrong every day of the week." Dublin received €660 K which were GOVT Tax Grant aid to clubs/teams in disadvantaged areas in the City to sbe spent on specific projects, nothing to do at all with GAA money. Every year the same clowns reprint items from annual reports which are nothing to do with GAA money at all. It is Govt Tax funding for getting disadvantaged kids involved in sport (any sport rather than gangland crime and drugs), page 136 of GAA Annual Report line item "Dublin games development*" Asterisk (*) means it is a Sport Ireland assited Grant scheme, check it out on Sport Ireland website. These schemes/grants are issued by Sport Ireland not the GAA. That money goes to the Dublin County Board to spend the funding on specific sporting educational projects. Most sports get them, most County Boards get them, they are distributed on a annual basis Dublins in 2019 was 1.2 million grants where reduced by nearly 50%.
Again we have people writing about things they do not understand. If the GAA stated they gave Dublin GAA directlt 86.990 then in audited accounts thats what they gave. BTW that works out approx 30 cent for every club player in Dublin cool!!

They say they released them because there was an error in their earlier figures. The figure was over 700grand for gdf. The disadvantaged scheme is nt mentioned at all.

Even when the GAA admit the figures they issued were wrong some of you boys have your weapons set to kill the minute someone points it out.
You are beyond parody at the moment.
Strange how it just happened to be Dublin's figures that were under-reported.
