Replying To galwayford: "If Connacht Rugby is so great why do they need a 20 million euro donation from central government?" I never mentioned Connacht Rugby in my post, it has no relavence to the point I made. Your infatuation with Connacht Rugby is laughable. Obvious deflection from the real issue, quick look over there. One other point about your volunteers, you need to do your homework as there are full time officials. You never came back to tell us or show the link where you claimed Fianna Fáil & Fine Gael we're sponsoring the IRFU. I wonder why ! moc.dna (Galway) - Posts: 1212 - 09/11/2019 00:56:50 2248695 Link
Speaking of Money, as regards the 2020 League this is from the Examiner: "The GAA have found attendances at Dublin fixtures on Saturdays earlier in the season are better than on Sundays ... The Irish Examiner understands the first six of the All-Ireland champions' League matches will take place on Saturday evenings". Nice to see them dropping the pretense that they are anything but a Dublin first body at this stage. TheHermit (Kerry) - Posts: 6354 - 09/11/2019 11:12:40 2248731 Link

They are led by Fine Gael senator Neale Richmond. And have numerous members of both Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil. They had a "junket" to Japan recently- courtesy in part of the Irish taxpayer. Mr Shane O Neill is now Galway hurling manager. He is a solicitor also. So maybe you and this site might be a bit more careful about throwing out accusations. Why don't you get behind the team now?

Replying To galwayford: "Maybe the Government should bail out Galway and Mayo GAA. Like the 20 million euros they have given to Connacht Rugby and the 16 million to the Greyhound board." Bookies pay 70 million in tax on bets to the government put this back into the horse racing and greyhound racimg. Thats why greyhound racing got 16 million its share of the takings. This is just on a tax of 2% so imagine if there was a 10 or 15 % tax on gaa bets that was given back to gaa for development etc how beneficial it would be.

Let me just tell you that people who speak the truth have nothing to fear on here from anyone in the legal profession. I am going to copy & paste your claim about Fianna Fáil & Fine Gael that you seem to have had sudden memory loss on, after that I won't reply to any of your posts as there are clearly issues going on. moc.dna (Galway) - Posts: 1212 - 09/11/2019 19:39:13 2248819 Link

More a lack of it. Wrongs have been righted and policies have been put in place overseen by Croke Park but unfortunately none of this masks the wrongs that have been done and in parts theft of the past. Massive drop in the fundraising shows the discontent towards the administration of Galway GAA. (complete opposite of the goodwill towards the redevelopment of Tuam Stadium) Hopefully with PJ now on board and the bit of good will there will in that regard, a new finance and operations manager and possibly a new chairman in place the show can get back on the road beginning with our trip to New York. Circumstances are poor and starting at a low base but hopefully they can only get better. SamandLiamSoon (Galway) - Posts: 589 - 11/12/2019 14:07:13 2254294 Link
I wonder lads has there been any drop in money in Dublin I doubt it very much. Come the championship these dub guys will be training as full time pros and getting well paid for on top of there well paid jobs I wonder as well are there companies and places of employment compensated for these guys not being at work surely they have to get another teacher/doctor/etc in to replace them that compensation would that come from dublin County board funds or central council funds..

Kingdumbboy was called out on his nonsense to back up his BS claims recently only for him to cowardly hide away and leave the question unanswered..

Replying To hamsterdean: "Was there any talk about money playing outside of Croke Park pre 2011??" Kerry still have the most AI football titles but no one seems to want to look too hard into the finances down there. Most counties would kill for a sponsor like Kerry group Breezy (Limerick) - Posts: 1236 - 12/12/2019 17:37:31 2254471 Link

We won't hold our breath" I tried to answer mes's post loads of times jim but the admin kept blocking my reply and I gave up trying, you see I don't have as much time on my hands as ye dubs do as I have to actually go and do a days work, I can't sit back and live of the state like you do. As for your claims of dishonesty remember when you accused the hermit of posting something to you about mental health issues and when I asked you to show us the post and you disappeared because there was no post. And remember when you said the young Kerry team lost all round them this year and when I pointed out that Kerry only lost 3 games in the entire year the same as dublin you disappeared. Do you remember that Jim? KingdomBoy1 (Kerry) - Posts: 14092 - 12/12/2019 18:08:46 2254476 Link
I never said Kerry lost all around them in such a context. If you could send on what so said we can discuss it I think I was referencing national finals at the time jimbodub (Dublin) - Posts: 20600 - 12/12/2019 19:32:24 2254499 Link
