London v Mayo 29th May

[AZOffaly]

Typical Connacht home venue bollix, another province would have moved it to neutral ground if the home venue hadn't capacity.

Wemberlee, Wemberlee!!

Why not Lords?

Promote the hell out of the game, surely they would sell 30K tickets? Or is Dublin the only market the GAA are interested in?

I presume summer is the height of the county cricket season etc, they'd hardly want Mayo digging up divots in the wicket

Probably but it would be a great day out all the same

Lunch instead of half-time, cucumber sandwiches, ham sandwiches and tea.

Anyone else see Galway play Mayo at Elland Rd about 25 year ago?

[AZOffaly]

Not me, but I do know there were some games in Wembley back in the day as well. Must have been 13 a side I suppose.

What if it's rained off?

Think there were games at Wembley every year for about 15 years going back to the 60's and 70's. I'm sure there was 100,000 there in one of those years.

Lads the GAA agreed that New York and London could take the gate. The money does not go to the Connacht Council or Croke Park. It is retained at a local level and fair play to them. They need all the help they can get to promote the game. This whingeing is typical. We hear the same thing when an All Ireland Final is on. All of a sudden everyone wants a ticket and the 'I am more entitled than you' brigade comes out. There are limited tickets someone loses out. If you are not on the ball when they are put on sale - tough. Man up and take it. Stop crying. Same rubbish when it comes to refs, venues, prices, etc. We are getting more and more soccer like! - that is not a compliment.

Relax, will ye. Nobody's whinging ffs.
I'm just disappointed won t be able to go over for the weekend to the brother in London and see the game. Not going to lose sleep about it or anything if I cant. Not that big a deal.

James Horan's team had to go to extra time to beat London. In fact, lucky enough to get to extra time.
