Ah, big hairy balls to that then. Good thing I did not go down and put money into the account for this then. (I use a seperate account for all my Maestro stuff). Looks like it's down to begging others to put it on their Credit Card for me.

think were missing something anout the 60% if you buy the seSON TICKET . is it not a given that you were at the match. or do they have some way of checking that you actually attended ? could someone else use the ticket surely they wont have electronice equipment to scan them at all grounds next year.
Or are they chatting FBD,mcgrath o'byrne cup games as well?

I'd imagine they will have one of them barcode scanners they use in Croker at every ground in the country now to record your attendance and can't imagine it'll be any problem for someone else to use your ticket if u can't go. Not valid for FBD,mcgrath o'byrne cup...

two tickets purchased already! Excellent value (it was £11 into NFL Games last year)and a guarantee of All Ireland Final tickets for Armagh V Kerry in 2009! I'll probably get freebies for the championhsip as well which I will sell and use to finance the season ticket purchase

Why am I not surprised? I'm sure all the people who have provided you with said freebies over the years will be hugely impressed with your generosity when the opportunity arose to reciprocate.

This seems an admirable scheme, especially for those of us living outside our counties who are obviously peripheral to any clubs in that county. Apart from anything else it sorts out a ticket for the first championship game, which might be hard enough to do if you are in Armagh or Tyrone.

Cue a row though when some ground somewhere hasn't got the scanners or whatever and they don't properly record if you attended or not.

[T Fearon]

Armaghmaniac, there wasn't a row last year when thousands of people paid £11 thinking we were going to watch Armagh play Dublin and the game was called off without any refund. In otherwords I paid 1/5 of the cost of the season ticket last year and didn't even see a game

[T Fearon]

I also understand that sales are limited to 250 per county, so at the most there's only 248 left for Armagh currently

Terms and conditions outlines that it must be yourself who uses the ticket and that they may ask for ID...

some chance of that happening...

Cannot see anything wrong with this scheme whatsover. You are making huge savings getting 7 NFL Games and Championship round 1 for less than a total of £65 (thats less than I pay for one ticket to an Ireland soccer game at Croker), and  guaranteed tickets all through the championship (remember last year when it was difficult enough to get a ticket for the Ulster Final) and that magical feeling if you're watching your team win an AI Semi Final that your Final ticket is assured.

Think I might get one. I might get to tip over for the odd league game and it'll get me a seat for Meath beating Dublin. if they arent gone already that is.

[T Fearon]

The Meath ticket will also grant access to the Royals defeat in Armagh in the league as well

[thejuice]

Ahem!

1999
Meath 0-15 Armagh 2-5

NFL 2006
Meath 0-19 Armagh 1-9

NFL 2008
Meath 3-07 Armagh 1-06

There was another game that ended in a draw played in Navan but I cant remember the year or result,
