[rosnarun]

[armaghniac]

with mayos 1st round game in new york

There is a case for this not being counted in the season ticket scheme.

"   Mayo Football
     The base price of €75 includes:

7 Allianz GAA Football National League 2009 round matches   
Quarter Final of GAA Football Connacht Championship (v. New York)
Should Mayo win the Quarter Final: Semi Final of GAA Football Connacht Championship (v. Leitrim or Roscommon)    "

Its included alright. But you also get a ticket for the semi

Armagh and Meath drew in Navan in 2004. Remember it well as it helped me win the BBC's prediction competition that season.

Nothwithstanding the fact that Meath never faced Armagh in the championship in the glory years (2000-2008),by my reckoning the last time Armagh beat Meath was in the league in Navan in 1998. Also if memory serves me right, Meath haven't played competitively on Armagh soil since the league game in Killeavy way back in 1983. Could be wrong about this though.

Got my Tyrone ticket ordered. It says I should expect the ticket/card within the next few days.
Does anyone think that is accurate and that we will receive them that soon?

[T Fearon]

Drici, I don't recall this match, and apparently the legend that was Tidsy Mc Kerr scored a goal, from full back, as well? Was the Meath centre half back not called Harnan as opposed to Harney which is a good Armagh name?

Doohicky you'll not need your ticket till the end of January so what does it matter when it arrives

[sam03/05]

couple of points im not sure about
1) is it 60% of the Nat league games that must be attended or is it 60% of all your counties game including Nat league and championship
2) how will they know if you attend or not

[Doohicky]

I have been led to believe that it would be 60% of National League games, but I could be wrong.

I assume they will have to have scanners at every game now. Which sounds a bit naff to me considering there will only be 500 people max at each game who will use them, unless it is a Hurling/Football double header which would mean 1000 people max would need them.

[T Fearon]

Lads, there is a load of detail on GAA.ie which explains the system. You have to attend 60% of your county's games in both league and championship to qualify for an AI Final ticket, and there will be a special turnstile at most grounds for season ticket holders, where your ticket will be scanned and your entry recorded, or if there isn't you have to preprint a voucher and hand it in at no additional cost and you wil be kept up to date with emails etc

its not that we can't read so much as dont believe  that all grounds will be that organised. esp in the lower divisons . at some away matches it can be hard enough to find the way in at all without local knowledge never mind a special season ticket one

[armaghniac]

it might be interesting to correlate "All Ireland Football 2009 - To Reach The Final" odds (from the GAA odds thread) with purchases of season tickets!
But then again Kerry won't bother as they don't plan to go to the games all along, Cork haven't many football fans and who knows what will happen with them. You'd expect Dublin's quota to sell out and reasonable interest from Tyrone, Armagh, Galway and Mayo. Derry should have enough tickets to cater for those who attend county games.

it doesnt matter the higher people of society will always have first pick and rightly so, some people dont want to go to games all year they just want to go to the final and if they have the reddies to do so i say more power to them, i believe might = right regarding tickets they only person who deserves one is the person with one in their hand
