Laughable stuff. Paul mescal!! Heard it all now  ;D

There is a point there though. There is a discernable lack of activity from too many county boards.

I know what you mean. Dublin took in 161k from fundraising from 2015-2017 according to their own accounts. Desperately short of more active county boards like Mayo who took in 1.761 million from 2015-2016.

And how are their respective models working out?

One spends their income on players' mileage expenses, travel, hotels etc. The other spends it on a 30 man backroom team.

Well they both get by ok but the Dublin model in Mayo would be a total f**king disaster and they wouldn't be able to keep the lights on.

Luckily for Dublin their model works even though their county board is hopeless at fundraising because they have multinationals and the GAA willing to pay them millions.

They are hopeless at fundraising as proven by how much funds they raise...?

Your a gas man Baile Brigín 2 .

As far as I can make out and correct me if I'm wrong , you would like ..

1) The  Dubs to keep all their advantages , financial and otherwise,

2) Win everything there is to be won in the football......

3) And expect everyone ( outside Dublin ) to be delighted for them. 

Good luck with that. !!!!! I don't think it's going to happen.

Maybe try the Reservoir Dub site .

I don't expect you to 'be delighted'. I expect you to try and rise to the challenge and not just run up the white flag.

Their volunteers need to work harder

No need to bother fundraising when the gaa hands you so much money every year and you've every large business looking to sponsor them (15 at the last count).
They even have a semi state company, Bus Eireann giving them money!
Official transport partner of Dublin GAA.
