    Never in my lifetime did I think an amateur sporting organisation would ever get away with charging 100 euro for a final ticket, where nobody on the day is actually paid except the folks that run said “amateur” organisation. Also kinda amazes me how the media havent made more of this and treated like its just one of those things. This coupled with the farce of GAAGO really does raise the question. Why are the GAA still getting money from the taxpayers when they clearly seem to not care about treating their fans like complete cash cows and mugs!

    @Tom Newell: How do you think every parish in the country has facilities the envy of every other sport? Or do you think the suits in Croke Park are heading for the airport with suit cases full of cash?

    @Tom Newell: how to you think the organisation funds club houses, football pitches, coaches , players expenses and all manner of costs, with fresh air I suppose. And for your information a season on GAAGO can be purchased for 69 Euro. Or of course you could join your local club and watch it for free. Do you think broadcasting matches on GAAGO costs nothing, do you go to work for nothing. At lastly, most GAA matches are not all ticket and you can buy your ticket on line or at the ground . Finally is your Skysport subscription free, even though many of the sports shown are also amateur

    Jeez, tickets are like ‘hens teeth’ at the winter solstice.

    Fair play to both teams for getting to Final day…. There’s been some fantastic hurling on display all season.

    As a ‘neutral’ methinks Clare will scrape over the line by very minimum, maybe 1-2points……The rebels had their Final last Sunday week

    The participating counties should be alloted at least 60 per cent of the tickets. As far as I know both Clare and Cork got about 16,000 each. Not nearly enough.

    As a neutral I wouldn’t want one. Proper gaa men from Cork and Clare should get them. Gaa women also, everyone from those counties. Yet you will have riain and dermot from kilmacud in there creating zero atmosphere and looking for a pie. Flakes

    Most intercounty matches are now all ticket, distributed through the clubs. So to have any chance you need to join your local club.
