The one thing no one has mentioned is it a case the GAA are compensating cost for the amount of free tickets given away. i.e 2 to every club, sponsers, dignataries etc. Id say its a fair few thousand.

Eh? Clubs dont get free tickets.

Are two tickets not sent out to every club and do they pay for them? i thought they were free all these years.

Morto.

They are not sent to the club's,they are sent to the county boards where a member of the club's committee can then pick them up(with cheque book in hand).

Tickets were easy to get hold of on Sunday around Croke Park. I know of some which were  sold at less than face value as they were afraid of not shifting them at all.

Good.
How/Why did the cnuts get them in the first place?

The GAA are really biting the hand that feeds them now.

€7 for a programme on Sunday as well. I'd say they did't sell too many. Everyone giving out about that and when they heard the cost they were telling the sellers to keep them.
They get momentum, they go mad, here they go

Friend of mine got 2 davin end tickets for 40 euro each about an hour before throw in, he said there were any amount of tickets available below face value. I think the football may be the same, who is going to pay 90euro for a ticket to a game we already know the result of.

Hurling final had loads of tickets on sale on the day. Thats unlikely to be case for the football final, county allocations will be around 60k with the rest going to sponsors,press,educational bodies etc.  This final is seen as "historic event" and the Dubs would snap up 60K tickets on their own if they could.

Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

The marketing team are happy to play the historic event card for this final. But that will wear off for next year and then win no.7 in 2021.

Ah, if we do 5, we won't do 6 in a row.
Gavin gone
Cluxton, Philly, Fitzy, Cian, MDMA, Andrews, Berno, Kev Mac retired
Kilkenny, Con and Costello going hurling
Fenton and Howard going travelling for a year

Hopefully Cooper, McCarthy, Jack, Small, Scully, Rock and Mannion will still hang around so we can give Leinster a lash at least, but don't be putting any money on 6 in a row!

Do you really expect Gavin to call time on it if they win in a fortnight? I see him being another Cody, Harte, Boylan who will be there for the next decade.

I agree. Sure hasn't he agreed to stay until 2021 at the very latest.
