Im doing the same Sunday morning. If you hear of any spare tomorrow feel free to pass on a PM :P

I will indeed. Likewise!

jackireland · 19-09-2014 2:45pm

I have never seen tickets as scarce, lots of single ones being got which are not id3al, but id take any at this stage...take it that it will only be inflated prices around croker on sunday? Where would the best be to try to get ones on sunday?

Where did she source them? I'll be wandering the streets around Croker tomorrow and Sunday morning...

Someone through work had friend who had feelers out for 1 ticket & ended up being offered 2 from different sources, well worth a trip to Dublin, putting the word out in local pubs etc, worked for me more than once, best of luck in the hunt, hope you get sorted.

ghostfacekilla · 19-09-2014 3:21pm

One ticket needed for my elderly father who missed 2012 due to ill health. A seated ticket would leave him a very happy man. Fingers crossed.

Ollieboy · 19-09-2014 3:30pm

From today on wards a lot of tickets will become available as people will have multiple tickets and need to get rid of them. I also think some people are holding on to spare tickets and hoping to make a killing on them. But I'm confident come Sunday tickets will be available.

Thanks, me too! Let me know if you hear of any going. Fingers crossed!

Some people charging 400-600 for two, genuinely sickening. Never charged anybody more than face value for tickets in my life - hope people get sorted and don't end up getting extorted by <snip> with no interest.

Will do, in Dublin tomorrow on business will be keeping eyes & ears open.

Thumbelina 29 · 19-09-2014 8:56pm

I know, I should have copped on, but I was desperate ; (

Hulk Hands · 19-09-2014 9:46pm

Laughable what some people are charging on gumtree. 90% of them seem to be from Donegal too, which is disheartening given that they're seeing firsthand how desperate people are

I don't really think any particular county is worse than another with regards touting. Ebay was full of tickets going in Dublin 250 a pop. Sure wasn't it a Kerryman on here charged someone over the odds for a ticket he never sent?

That being said. I've a particular love of Kerrymen in the last 5 mins :P Me dad may have got us sorted through Kerry relatives of his. Sitting Somewhere in the Hogan (Can't say this love of all things Kerry will persist depending on the result Sunday) But I'm absolutely delighted. I'll still be going to Dublin early Sunday so if anyone is looking and around I can keep an eye out for ye!

Well done Timmy. Delighted for ya. I also got sorted for tickets tonight. Like buses two came along at once but I'm happy to be looking forward to singing in the hill Sunday. Best of luck to anyone still looking.

Bobbles88 · 20-09-2014 5:36am

Anyone with a spare Hill 16 ticket?? The gf has one(she's from Kerry) and is absolutely heartbroken we can't get a second one! Won't go on her own for obvious reasons.. We would even buy 2 tickets for Cusack or any other stand if they were together! Absolutely sick of ringing bogus ads on gumtree! Will collect anywhere in the country and pay cash on collection! Please help! ðŸ˜¢

Shoite. Ah well. There will come fake ads withthe real ones. Theres a few lads selling hill tix for 80 if yer desperate. Tis a shame but might have to consider paying OTO for tix at this stage

coleen · 20-09-2014 11:25am

I have 2 lower corner cusack and would swap for 2 upper.

Bobbles88 · 20-09-2014 11:26am

No limit, had my son at the hurling. Tip- get there early enough to get to a barrier. Just another idea I had and might help your child enjoy the day even more; put a plastic step into a rucksack and took it with us. Was an old rucksack so didn't even take out the step, just let him stand on it for the match. Worked a treat!!

A P · 20-09-2014 6:49pm

If anyone has 2 spare tickets at face value for the hurling replay please PM. Can collect in Dublin city. Cheers

darbydan · 20-09-2014 6:55pm

andrew1977 · 22-09-2014 10:44am

Did many spare tickets turn up around the pubs and Croke Park yesterday ?

joeKel73 · 22-09-2014 10:48am

My sister got a ticket from two Kerry lads by holding up a "Ticket needed" sign for a while, they didn't want to sell it to the Dubs around the area looking to buy up spares.

Tickets were much easier to get than the Donegal-Mayo final.

loads.
I got one at face value within 5 mins of leaving drumcondra station. friends that I met before and after all got sorted the same, in the Hogan. davin, cusack and the hill, all at face value

lukin · 22-09-2014 2:03pm

I'm not looking for a ticket for the replay Sunday but I have a question about the Nally Stand tickets that went on sale to season ticket holders (I searched the forum but didn't find an answer).
As I understand it these tickets were sent back from Kilkenny and the reason they gave was that the view from those seats is dire and they would rather not go at all rather than sit there. That seems a bit unbelievable as surely most people would be happy to get any kind of ticket for an All-Ireland final rather than no ticket at all?
I thought since the redevelopment that there is a pretty decent view from almost everywhere in Croker?
To my amazement these tickets went on sale not only for the draw but also for the replay (I am a Cork season ticket holder and I got the email about it last Thursday). I wasn't interested in buying one but I am just surprised at this.
Apologies if it has been answered already, I couldn't find it if it was.

I was in the Nally for the AI drawn game against kilkenny. I have been in the Nally probably 3 times previously. The view is grand. You need to get up a little higher, so you can see over the glass. Personally, I choose the Hill/Nally over seats most of the time. The banter is much better, you can move around and if there is some cock beside you spouting $hite about the ref, you can tell him F off, and walk away.

I live right beside the stadium, so generally leave the house about 5 minutes before tip/kick off and just find a spot anywhere up high.

There is genuinely a great view from 95% of the stadium. The only time I remember having a bad view was in the premium level, right at the back. everytime the ball went up in the air, we couldnt see it! But it was grand.

€25 on saturday in the nally, is unreal value for an All Ireland. I'll be there myself!

My wifes family (6 in total) from kerry all picked up tickets on either saturday night or sunday morning. As always, there is enough to go around if you are proactive enough.

Copper_pipe · 22-09-2014 2:24pm

That's what I thought alright. Seems unbelievable that anyone would turn down a ticket for an AI final just because the view was not as good as they wanted.

Hi all, hey anyone know if the KK supportors club had their draw for tickets yet.

wicklowwonder · 23-09-2014 10:01pm

Hi all, spotted this on Facebook. Two tickets for the final Saturday. It's a great charity, some of you may be interested? I know of the kids through a friend of a friend and just saw the post on FB. Hope it's not against the rules, if it is admins feel free to remove.
