The GAA should get 10,000 tickets for this and give them to the referees so that poeple in the actual counties can go to the All Ireland.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

For once, only one county (Tyrone) should get 100% of a ticket allocation. There'll be no complaints from any other county on that score  ;D

So upset about this, and yet still so unable to balance in your head that what a bandwagon supporter contributes to the GAA, is minuscule compared to what a referee contributes to the GAA.

The "Association" aspect of the name seems lost on you.

Perhaps I should not have mentioned referees, for whom I have admiration. Imagine then are part of the rental of the stadium that the GAA has some prime seats for sponsors.
I made a point in general about actual attendence being on the strengths of the GAA and they should exploit that. You may not agree.

It always give me a chuckle at how many of his lifelong fans still think his name is "Gareth Brooks".

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

At least Garth can use the stage that he never got to use in 2014, it's apparently stored in a warehouse in Mountmellick of all places since then.

A large majority of the residents are furious the gigs are going ahead. Aiken promotions held a meeting and told the residents they had confirmed 2 gigs and were looking to confirm another 3. Residents were told licencing laws have changed so they couldn't go to court like they did the last time to stop the shows. Cocky twats were only short of gloating about it.

Wouldn't give a guarantee that croker would be limited to 3 concerts per year anymore either from 2022 onwards

Gareth is a feature of Hiberno English. You can't have 3 consonants in a row so you have to throw in a vowel- eg fillum.
