ticket outlets Dublin V Cork?

DamoKen

Hi all, just wondering when tickets for this game are going to available and if ticketmaster will have an allocation?

Just checked on the ticketmaster site and it says they were on sale from the 27th of July well before the Dublin Tyrone game which makes no sense but says none found no matter what selection I make

Are the tickets on sale already? Surely they aren't all gone?

Justin10

Dont know when they go on sale but they aint on sale yet, usually ticketmaster dont get any tickets but with the reccesion they may do.

Dundrummer

Tickets have been and gone from Ticketmaster

As soon as the draw was made for the quarter-finals, it was known the winners of the Dublin-Tyrone game would be playing on Aug 22nd. Not surprisingly, they wouldn't be around for long after the game finished...

The Maverick

GAA ticket office on Dorset Street should have some on sale, unless the tickets are not being released until the week before the game. If you call them over the phone, you can order them with your credit/laser card.

Tickets were on sale for last years Cork vs Tyrone semi in the masses. Wasnt even sold out.

namloc1980

Well, based on attendances at Cork and Dublin games so far this season can't see this being a sellout. I'd say tickets will be plentiful.

Justin10

They didnt go on sale yet, sorry I would be speaking for Dublin matches with Ticketmaster getting no tickets.

Ticketmaster would only of had their first basic round of tickets.

I.e Cork vs Tyrone final wouldnt of sold as many as Cork Dublin will.
So GAA wouldnt of opened the entire stadium. Its likely they will now and add more to ticketmaster.

phishcakes

tickets have been on sale on ticketmaster since the 27th, they have been and gone, ineedaticket.ie has tickets but i normally dont like buying from touts.

Justin10

Has anyone that says ticketmaster have sold out there tickets bought any??

And i meant in previous years Dublin matches at the quarter final stage tickets would not have been sold in ticketmaster. I know ticketmaster get tickets but not for Quarter final and semi finals in previous years.

I got a 1/4 final ticket in 2008 for the Tyrone game from Ticketmaster.

There was defo no semi tickets in 2006 for the Mayo game on sale though through Ticketmaster.

I'd doubt there will be a sell out for this. 60 or even 70k, but not sold out.

All lowers stands, the upper cusack and the hill will be sold first. IF there is more demand, the will open the upper Hogan and Davin then.

Cork playing in both semi finals will lower their support for both matches. And the general economic situation lowering the support for everyone including neutrals. Actually look out for heavy traffic on the Sunday morning as less Cork people will make a weekend out of it also and just travel on the day.

If you are stuck, plenty of lads will be offloading tickets on the morning. And remember, given the option - try and buy a ticket from a genuine supporter who happens to have a spare rather than the touts.

JonnyF

Can anyone give me any advice on where to get tickets for the Cork match? Have been to every game so far but bought them from ticketmaster which seems to be sold out of their allocation this morning. Should I call the county board or is that a waste of time?

Qwertyuiop

Waste of time.

Just hold on til closer to the game. The clubs haven't had their allocation yet so there will probably be more to go on sale later in the month.

JonnyF

So just hang on till the clubs give their allocations back? Is it worth getting on to a club? I'm not a member of any, just a big fan

Silly comment , makes no difference if the lad is a member of a club, he has been to every game so far to support his county.

Its that type of small minded attiude that will continue to keep numbers dwindling from the game.

Worth noting for next year and seeing as you're such a big fan and have gone to every Dublin match then it would be worth your while getting a Parnell Park pass which will give you free entry to every home Dublin game both hurling and football and guarantee you an option to buy a ticket for every all-ticket match involving Dublin.

Here we go again with this rubbish

Not every GAA fan has to be a member of a club
My Dad, brother and myself have gone to every Dublin game in the last few years, this includes league and championship games, rain, sun or hail and none of us are members of a club.

Yes I understand that tickets should go to hard working club members and that is fair but as said there are real fans out there who are not club members

Anyone who is not a member of a club and likes to follow there team keep an eye on out for when the GAA season ticket is on sale
I got one for the brother and myself and it is the best 75 euro I have ever spent

NUIG_FiannaFail

No matter what way ye dress it up at the end of the day sunshine intercounty supporters should be at the back of the line for tickets.

The heart and soul of the GAA is the club. When that's gone you have nothin. The lad coaching under 11s every sunday morning down the club deserves the tickets for the big days.

DamoKen

Lads thanks for all the replies. Just did a check on ticketmaster and got me two on the Cusack upper so happy out!

Went from row F to row O within less than 10 min though so looks like they're selling fast

omega man

Tickets available on Ticketmaster as we speak.

Nobody ever said that the lad couching did not deserve a ticket but there are real fans out there that travel all over Ireland following their team and from what you are saying just because they are not part of a club means they have no right to a ticket

Qwertyuiop

NUIG Fianna Fail, back to work today, at war with the world? Have a pop at an innocent poster to make yourself feel better, quite mature.

The way it is this year there will be no problem for tickets except for the finals anyways.

However my firm belief, along with most GAA members, is that club members should get first call on AI Final Tickets. And yes I don't care if they guy went to every national league and championship match - if he is not a member of a club then he is not a member of the GAA.

I really hate this attitude. I stopped playing about 10 years ago and never kept my club membership going. I have had PP season passes before but the last few years i have just gone to ticketmaster for my tickets. I have gone to every champo game this year including standing on the hill in the pissing rain against tipp but yet now all of the 'fans' will be climbing over each other to get to the SF, including many club members. I have no problem with fairweather fans as thats just sport but please dont think that for one minute that everyone who gets their tickets on TM are no less of a county supporter. Rant over.

So your saying a club member who sees his/her team make the Final and who has not gone to any other game but decides they want to go to the Final has more right to a ticket then a fan who has been out in the rain and at every game

This is why the season ticket is great, It is for fans who don't have any club links (and there is alot of them)

I have been a member of this forum for a long time (I hardly ever post) but this topic comes up every year and every year its the same

Quite ridiculous logic.
How are non club members sunshine supporters? I'm not a member of a club, and yet this year, following Meath, I've travelled to Ballymahon in Longford on a freezing cold January afternoon, Thurles, Parnell Park, Newry and Ballybofey (and back in one evening) as well as Navan 6 or 7 times. Last year I also travelled to Wexford, Cork and Crossmaglen to see them play. Are you saying that I'm a sunshine supporter?
I go to watch my own clubs games but I'm not a member and to be honest, if Meath happened to get to the All Ireland Final any time soon and certain members of said club got tickets before me, I would find it scandalous.

Grow up will you. I'm very glad you're not in a position of power in the GAA because it would go under very quickly.

Qwertyuiop

He is just a wind up merchant, taking pleasure in this NUIG? Sad person.

Hammer Archer

Why exactly are ye bothering buying from those thieves at Ticketmaster? They charge a service fee of €4.50 PER TICKET while the GAA ticket office charge €4 no matter how many tickets you buy.

Ridiculously flawed logic. Going by what you're saying only people who are signed up club members are true supporters and deserve big match tickets. What about people like myself who have moved away from their home town and as such have left their local club membership expire? What about people who've been to every league game and those hardy souls who went to the tipp qualifier but aren't club members. This is as silly an argment as the time you tried to tar all Roscommon fans with the same brush based on the actions of one or two after the Connaught Final.

Then again I'd expect this level of drivel from someone that attaches Fianna Failure to their name.;)

At the end of the day though what do ye really contribute to the gaa? in my opinion, and most gaa members i imagine, the guy who puts the time in underage to bring along the next henry shefflin, joe canning, gooch or bernard brogan should be rewarded. ye are simply customers enjoying the end product but made no tangible contribution to bring it about, unlike the guys training teams in the rain at 9 in the morning when ye are in bed hungover. I stand by my beliefs.

well unless things have changed anytime I've ever called the number when tickets are out I can't get through.

Calling in is not an option unfortunately. Only ever bother with ticketmaster once it goes outside the provincials, up until then make a point of getting them through the Leinster council.

Your all GAA fans, get over it.

OK after reading your last post, I 100% agree with Qwertyuiop.

Little story. I was in college in Limerick and decided to re-sign for my home club. Contacted the club and said i was available to play, just let me know when matches were on in advance as i would have to get a bus to Clonmel/Waterford and thumb from there. They had my phone and email details.

Heard nothing from them. Was home one weekend at mass and one of the players (went to primary school with him) came up to me in the church and gave out to me for playing the previous weekend when they were short players. I pointed out that no one told me about a match so how could i attend. His attitude was it was up to me to be around for matches. Considering i was going to travel to matches on my cost, i pointed out that i didn't think it was fair for me to come home every weekend on the off chance that they had a match. He left in a hump and heard nothing from them for the rest of the year.

The start of the next year, they sent me a letter looking for money for the club and i later found out from the secretary that the previous secretary had never registered me as a player.

So i was willing to join a club 80 miles away and they ignored me. Just because you are in a club doesn't give you a divine right to get tickets whether you are training the next generation or not in my opinion. I travel to Waterford matches and buy my tickets whatever way i can and i see myself as a fan. My money and supporter is as worthwhile as the next person's.

Some people in GAA clubs have an elitist attitude to people like me and haven't noticed that Ireland's changed. There's plenty fairweathers in clubs as well and don't anyone forget that.

What other people fail to notice as well is that maybe people have a valid reason for not being a club member or time constraints don't allow for it.

hisholinessnb

Club members should obviously be looked after but if you are not a club member and claim to go to all the games, then you would be crazy not to look at the Parnell pass scheme (only good value if you go to both hurling and football) or the season ticket scheme (pick hurling OR football).
If you arent in a club, or either of these schemes you can hardly complain when the people who put the bit extra in are rewarded ahead of you.

as one of those people who you obviously stand in reverance of, let me remind you that tickets for the finals are usually given to those in the know in the vast vast majority of clubs. the fact that i am running teams in the rain on a wednesday evening (your 9 am refence shows what a clueless WUM you are by the way) or bringing kids to blitzes on a saturday morning will mean nothing when the tickets are given out to whoever is best mates with "The Committee". There is at least one poster on this here board who can tell you of names going back into the hat when the raffle for tickets was made at his club.

As for "customers" - without their money the GAA would not happen.

OP dont listen to this ignoramus, get yourself a Parnell Park Pass next april and relax.

Guys I wouldnt bother with this guy he has been around various forums this morning pulling this crap.

See Beer Brewers forum for an example.

I played football up until Minor ended, I wasnt to go back and lay junior and go from there, but the only thing holding me back is my loyalty I have to my club. Weird you mite say but let me explain.
The reason I left the club was because of the backwards ****ers that were running the club. We trained under public lighting, we didnt get new jerseys from U11 -U16 we finally got tracksuits when we got to Minor.
Where did all our Membership fees go, in the case of my family, my dad and two brothers and myself?
All I could see was it going to the fat lazy ****ers to subsidise their pint of stout on a sunday. You would have younger teams bringing back trophys and they were told to shut up by these Aul ****es because they were celebrating.
The whole thing stank, thats why I left, I'd love to play again but It would be for a rival club which has better facilities and run proper, but I feel guilty because from nursery up till minor I had the most Devoted managers and helpers, the sacrifices they made for the club were amazing and they got no thanks, I'm not gunna use the skills I learned from these people against them.

So ye what Im getting at is, yes you might be a member of the GAA, but you can still be worse than a fair weather suporter, Id rather go without the membership fees from these Fat Aul arseholes than have them in the club.

So NUIG Fianna Fail, are you one of these aul gits at the bar getting pissed off drink subsidised by kids? Wasters.
