Oh dear god seriously, "well to do" women??  Gosh wonder if one of them was my mum?  She definately doesn't wash kits these days.  But she sits in on her own a few nights a week (counting her millions) when my dad is at a club meeting or a grants meeting or a referees meeting.  She wore her fur coat to the McKenna Cup in January but was in the chalet in St Moritz for a few of the league games so she's not really a genuine supporter.

Who deserves the worst seats then, if season ticket holders don't?  The sponsors and their guests?  Right enough, they do nothing for the county.  The County Board?  True, sure they just sit in the county board offices doing very little.  County committees - ah sure they're as bad as county board officials.

If you had no qualms taking the great seats and car park pass in the past, why would you berate others for doing so now?  Is it just because your friend won't get you the tickets or is it because you genuinely disagree with the practice?  I would find it hard to believe it's the latter.

I keep laughing to myself at this thread - some of you season ticket holders seem to think you're the country's greatest fans!

Other people involved in a daily or weekly basis with the GAA may not have season tickets as they couldn't afford the initial outlay/weren't enough season tickets available - what makes them any less deserving of a good seat (as I presume you would rather have been in seats occupied by someone else, ie referees, youth coordinators, players' families, voluntary county board and club administrators etc).  Who in your opinion ranks below you in seating allocation terms?

Season ticket snobbery!

Did anyone else hear the head of the Irish pilot association or whatever it's called on Radio Ulster this morning?

He found it difficult to believe that it was lightening or turbulence. 

It's in Irish news today that they have been suspended so it must be confirmed.

Slightly incorrect there, as Ziggy says the Irish News says that they are "in line" for suspensions and can either accept or appeal to CCCC.

Was driving to and from the match in my convertible and didn't get any such abuse  

Would think about what Minder's just written.

Hit The Plough and the Stars in SF and ask for Laura - haven't a clue what the place is like but a friend of mine works there. 

Last few tee times available for the Club Tyrone golf day on Friday - Joe Kernan, Mickey Harte etc coming.

Weather's supposed to be beautiful.

Give me a shout if you are interested.

Right Fuzzman I want you to clock it on Sunday and report back.

 

Sorry - I had to

[the main event]

Drinks reception starts at 7.30 for dinner at 8, then into the main event.

The Champions League Final? 

Think that's tonight

Drinks reception starts at 7.30 for dinner at 8, then into the main event.

Looking forward to seeing the team named on Thursday night, going to be interesting.

Are you heading to the Glenavon TD? Anyone else going? It'll be an interesting eve.

I know it looks like a roundabout way, but I am tempted to go on down to Lisnaskea and through Newtownbutler.  I've rarely had to sit in traffic on the way out on that road.  Google Maps gives it as 10mins longer. 

Please tell me there's a wrong currency sign in there orangeman, otherwise the end of the world will be nigh!

Club Tyrone golf day - next Friday for anyone interested.

See the picture in the Irish News today for details.
