    Doubt it. Heard that at one point (Sunday night I think) there was 78,000 people on tickets.ie trying to buy.

    i think tickets.ie needs a ticketmaster style queuing system, looks far better than a dead website.

    Would this "unprecedented demand" for the online services be caused by the fact they were allocating 2 or 3 tickets for every 1 ticket that was being bought online?

    I doubt it. I don't think that people got any extra tickets. By extra, I mean more tickets than they had purchased, with different sections and rows and seat numbers on them. They just got duplicate copies of the original tickets, that they had already bought.

    its a smokescreen, you will be so tied up with worrying and arguing about tickets, that Diarmuid Connolly will be left off tomorrow night with the excuse that he only pretended to punch Lee Keegan last Sunday and no one will be any the wiser :rolleyes:

    Nothing personal against the bloke but if Diarmuid Connolly gets off, ye can have your tickets. I ain't going. That would really beggar belief. But having seen the goings on this week so far, I would not be surprised. No doubt Keegan is no Saint, but the rules are clear for a striking offence.

    You can give your tickets to the lad up the mountain.

    I'd rather he played,would much rather beat the best Dublin team available,there would be excuses and stuff thrown out if they lost it 'oh well ye beat us while we were missing our best forward' ,better to beat the best side available

    but there is a rules difference between "striking" and "attempting to strike"
    will not be surprised to see connolly get off
    same as there is a difference between pulling down and pulling back for a black card ;)

    There is no difference between striking and attempting to strike in the rule book!

    So why did you go to the match the first day, when Keane had his red card downgraded - rules are clear for a striking offence after all:rolleyes:

    lets see what happens tomorrow ;) Also doubt that Dermo will be leaving the venue at 1am either

    ahh no mr. keane changed all that. A serious rewrite of all the rules is needed. The rules are a joke.

    Got there just ahead of me. Intent is as bad.
    In terms of the best team available, rules are rules.

    Fair point. Maybe this is the last straw.
    Of all the rules. This is the one that's set in stone.
    Striking or attempting to strike a player = red card. No questions.


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,925 ✭✭✭✭BonnieSituation


    Red card and 1 game suspension upheld now.

    You can go to the game DTK now!

    Unless he appeals tomorrow.

    No actually the full allocation for clubs in Mayo is more in the region of 25,000


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 874 ✭✭✭FalconGirl


    Tickets arrived yesterday although I am not overly confident that someone else doesn't have the same tickets as me.

    Why? The issue was with duplicates of the same tickets. It is HIGHLY improbable thst your tickets were issued twice.


  • Registered Users Posts: 712 ✭✭✭P_Cash


    U know, is there a gain here when duplications were sent also,

    Suppose for an event, every every 4th order was sent out exact copies of tickets, duplications.

    Suppose this was marketed and advertised very well.

    Well, would anyone ever buy from a tout then, with a huge risk of been refused entry,

    It wouldnt get rid of it entirely, but should stamp out a lot of selling tickets etc

    no, your very wrong, that would be disastrous. People will still buy from touts

    Have people living in Mayo got their tickets yet from tickets.ie ?

    I ordered mine Sunday but nothing in the post as of yesterday. Maybe the people who got theirs yesterday live in Dublin and the rest will make their way in todays post hopefully.

    The postcode wont make a bit of difference, An Post dont use it. I delivered loads of tickets.ie envelopes this morning, everyone got at least two envelopes. What a potential mess
