anyone who reads the question and answer article with brown in todays times (for some reason its not on the website) will see what hes at with his comments on contracts etc including the one with the gaa. hes says its not workable with those contracts ie he wants a better deal if they do use it. is anyone seriously saying if the irfu and fai were offered cp at 850k a match instead of the current 1.35m they have been paying they would not snap it for games that would sell-out?

I am not surprised by Brownas comments as he has to ensure that Landsdowne Road is finished and that his corporate Ticket holders are happy . It will be  work interesting given the economic downturn how the Revenues from such corporate ticket (and indeed permium ticket sales ) will work out ?.

And will the Government come up with their 65% now that the public finances are gone to Hell?
Play the game and play it fairly
Play the game like Dermot Earley.

I'm waiting to hear that Lansdowne Road development has been put on temporary hold until the economy picks up.

I'll call for the Ferry to ship the teams off ;)

Yes.
They have budgeted for it. It has been voted on in the Dail (I think).
The State are contracted. They have already put a a fair few bundles of cash on the table.

If at any time in the near future there is no money, they will just borrow by the wheelbarrow load.
