Galway season ticket holders have been put in the terrace for Saturday s match in Parnell park. This is standing only , what about the young children and older people. This is a dark day for supporters and the GAA should be ashamed of this . Move the match out of Parnell park is the only answer heartbroken (Galway) - Posts: 370 - 12/06/2019 07:20:45 2193783 Link 0 |

Pretty sure this whole topic came up with Newbridge or nowhere last year. Season ticket conditions only guarantee a stand ticket when available and capacity allows. Obviously there must be more season ticket holders in Dublin and Galway combined than seats in the stand. We had the same issue in wexford park a few years ago where people were complaining that the covered stand was full of kilkenny people but that was because their season ticket holders greatly outnumbered ours. 1798man (Wexford) - Posts: 164 - 12/06/2019 10:51:47 2193846 Link 3 |

I would have sympathy particularly for Older people, i dont think the GAA does enough for people who may not be disabled, but get in out of grounds with adversity. TheUsername (Dublin) - Posts: 4445 - 12/06/2019 11:34:09 2193864 Link 5 |

Dublin Gaa want their cake and eat it. Footballers home ground Croke park. I was brought up to give up a seat to an elderly person or pregnant woman but the GAA want them to stand up.

I sympathise with you Heartbroken. Its not a great place to get to, and I'll have 3 kids hanging out of me. Id much rather be going to croker, but I think Im being selfish in that. Its their home ground....and I did laugh when Mayo lost the Newbridge or nowhere battle last year, so Im not going to be a hypocrite. I imagine the cost to open up croker for a crowd of probably less than 20k people would be hardly be considered worth it to the GAA, not to mention the lack of atmosphere (croke park less than 1/4 full vs a thronged Parnell park) I do think some allowances for elderly should be made though, and if someone has a disability card. Maybe they will be able to make some allowances for those that ask at the grounds on the day. tribesdude (Galway) - Posts: 1 - 12/06/2019 17:20:38 2194036 Link 0 |
They only make those exceptions for Dublin football supporters. I think it's about time Dublin invest in a proper stadium of their own.

We must be expecting, pardon the pun, hoardes of pregnant women and elderly Galweigans descending on Dublin. If you're that old or pregnant you probably shouldn't be travelling full stop. Heartbroken by name and by nature. BliainanÁir (Laois) - Posts: 598 - 13/06/2019 13:50:17 2194428 Link 1 |
Yes it should be played in Croke Park. Oh wait, all of the advantages. You just can't please. Some bloke on another thread whinging that the Dubs get the cheap terrace tickets for Croker. I'm sure Mayo would disagree. This guy moaning cause they can't get stand tickets. The aul dirty dubs. Joxer (Dublin) - Posts: 4700 - 13/06/2019 23:11:08 2194651 Link 6 |
