What if all people do want to renew their season tickets?? And there's one or two more like me who didn't bother with them this year because they knew they'd miss a few league games?

Tough luck, i'd imagine. It's a loyalty scheme, so the GAA are obviously going to sort out those who have already bought in.
Maybe they'll do a waiting list. It's only going to effect a handful of counties anyway.

They'll probably expand it a bit next year. I'd say they just limited the number to 250 per county (I think?) this year in case there were any teething problems. They should have ironed out any difficulties by next year and I'd say they'll raise the number available. Anyone who wants one will probably get sorted in most counties.

I'd imagine they'd stick with 250 per county myself. There are only a handful of counties where the demand is higher.

The demand will be greater next year though. Many people who didn't avail of the offer this year will probably be looking to get one next year, like Farrandeelin.

They should be able to expand it by another 100 or so tickets per county without many problems. With the exception of the Dubs, that would probably be enough to satisfy the demand in all counties.

got an e-mail from Croke Park. the numbers will stay at 250 next year with season ticket holders getting first choice to
buy them again.

Only about three counties actually sold out their 250

from page 3 of this thread, the situation near the end of January
Tyrone and Kerry people have got good enough value.
maybe Armagh could make the 250 next year with some more interest, but the county is hardly on a roll right now. There may be more interest in Meath after a good championship. Beyond that it is hardly worth having the scheme.

that is shocking little interest from a big county like Cork $:-\$

Any word on when Tyrone or Cork season ticket holders can purchase extra tickets? When you log in, the option is there but have received no email yet. Option was there earlier in the week but was then removed for a while.

apart from mayo dublin tyrone ithink (football)and tipp (Hurling) only a handfull of counties sold out and with all the 'never aginners' i met coming out of CP last sunday there should a few mayo ones ups for grabs.

Sure a lot of people say 'never again' every year and the next thing they're back at them again!

Extra tickets can be purchased now.

Perhaps we Armagh folk could point out that if Tyrone were in the final that they would have to cater for 250 season ticket holders, while Cork have 17 in the list below. The difference would be more than sufficient to allow Armagh get to the minor game, although if Mayo come through they too would have a large number of season ticket holders potentially interested in the U-18 contest.

If, as expected, it is a Cork v Kerry All Ireland Final, there will be no problem getting tickets. I was at their last meeting in an AIF and there were lots of tickets available. Though I do think something should be done for season ticket holders whos county is in the minor AIF.

One of the 'perks' of the season ticket was that if you attended 100% of your county's matches, you were entered into a draw for a chance to buy AI final tickets if your county wasn't involved. (You had an automatic right to buy if your county was involved and you attended 60% of your games).

Has anyone who attended 100% of their county's games heard anything about this?

I did, but didn't

I have heard nothing about it, having attended all games. Perhaps only the lucky winner will hear anything about it

Yeah, that's the case, I wasn't sure about it being the ones with the 100% record who was in the draw though for Sunday week.
