If clubs going door to door selling tickets can produce a card machine at your front door then the GAA could provide a few at the gate as well. I think that is the solution they will have to go for.

I have no issues with paying in advance for a ticket for the game but can see how it is an issue for other people.

f**k me just buy the ticket before you go. Like a concert or if you were going to the theatre.

People moan about everything. People moaned about Sky coverage and then they moaned about there not being Sky coverage. GAA is full of moaning c***ts.

It's an Irish thing. We are a nation of yaps.

Go try get a Chinese with a card, you not get far lol. The online process is off putting to many an older person who unlike us, don't bother with the Internet.

Gaa choice, who they ask, didnt ask any supporters, was it a motion at Congress? Just went ahead and done it. They only think of the money!

What you mean they only think of the money? If they were thinking about money they wouldn't do it, as fans say they aren't going!
It is best practice to limit cash where possible. Safer for all involved. This is a sensible step the GAA has taken. People are f**king professional whingers! Some Aontu politician actually released a statement!
The GAA are actual GAA members and volunteers, elected by the GAA members. They aren't some foreign corporation or investment fund.

Eh? Isn't this the opposite of thinking of the money? Lol think about what you are saying.
If they were "thinking of the money" they'd take nothing but cash and declare as little as they feel like as its completely untraceable.

Recent accounts for last year show more money made, as in a certain amount of money wasn't making it way back to Croke Park. Of course its about money, that all this organisation been geared up on past 20yrs.

Was a motion put forward to do this, no due to Covid, but when other Covid restrictions lifted, they kept cashless online payment, with ticketmaster involved and tickets costing more. They doing the banks job for them.

There's absolutely no excuse for not accommodating cash turnstiles, it is a disgrace. It won't change until a social media song & dance is made about it with a TV crew in tow.

The GAA is fond of pontificating about out our roots, our culture & history, the amateur ethos and volunteerism,  yet they display the most ruthless traits of capitalism underneath this shiney veneer all over the country. Price gouging & PPV are endemic and are only going to increase.

Sure half of the posters on this board will be able to see it all for free this Spring & Summer on GAAGO on IPTV illegal streaming services anyway.
