35 quid a ticket might have something to do with that! Scandalous price to pay for provincial football. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13705 - 28/05/2018 11:20:04 2104640 Link 6 |
It is but 15 for a terrace ticket isn't too bad and it was a nice summer's evening. The style of football was very different in 2000 to what it is now, I'd say that explains much of the drop in attendance as well. I don't remember a single shoulder challenge in Saturdays game which is incredible for an Ulster championship game. Spectators come to watch blood and thunder football, not endless uncontested kickouts. 2000 also had no backdoor, maybe it's time to go back to do or die football.

Yeah 15 quid not too bad for standing but 35 is scandalous stuff. Should be no more than 20 quid for first round and quarters, 25 for semi-final and then 30 quid for the final. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13705 - 28/05/2018 12:29:51 2104692 Link 0 |
50 EUR for 2 adults and 2 kids in covered seats in the Munster hurling championship. Big difference. By and large I thing the GAA ticket prices are very good value but 35 for that game is very excessive. MesAmis, that is a good pricing structure you proposed there. dahayeser (Cork) - Posts: 336 - 28/05/2018 15:34:02 2104836 Link 0 |
Yeah I really can't see the justification for those prices. GAA is generally quite good at prices as you say. MesAmis (Dublin) - Posts: 13705 - 28/05/2018 17:25:28 2104935 Link 0 |
Well, I couldn't get into Tyrone v Monaghan. Took me 20 mins to get parked and y time I got there, all tickets sold out. essmac (Tyrone) - Posts: 1141 - 28/05/2018 18:09:12 2104957 Link 0 |
putting the match around the same time as the Champions League final with a team as popular as Liverpool playing in it wouldnt have helped the attendance. if they moved the game to 5pm it might have brought the numbers up a bit.
