    First of all does anyone have any idea how much Dublin spent on their team this year? Does anyone have a comparisoon with other teams? From what I know Dublin have been in receipt of money from the Irish Sports Council, no other team has received any money from them.

    How much has all the money they received played in them winning 3 of the last 5 All Irelands? Would they have won them anyway? Is it fair for one county to spend far more money than everyone else? If you don't think it is then what should be done?

    This thread asks different questions and is up to date. Also nowhere does it state what money was spent this year in your links.

    What the hell? I was told to leave the other thread, I start a new thread and I'm acting like a child? Why doesn't anyone answer the questions??? This seems like a really uncomfortable topic for some people.

    If you bothered to look at the links you would have seen I linked you to a whole range of websites with further details.

    The amount of money spent this year will not be announced until the GAA release their accounts in February 2016.

    Yiu have to use 2014 accounts otherwise. Which I linked to.

    There is analysis and discussion in the preceding pages of my links.

    I really can't see why you are getting so stroppy.

    There is no uncomfortable truth at all. Regulars on here hate the derailing of threads.

    You're derailing this thread!!!

    I asked if anyone knows how much Dublin spent this year, if you don't know then you're not forced to answer.

    I'm not getting stroppy, I've read the last two pages on the Dublin GAA thread there and it really does seem like this is very uncomfortable for Dublin supporters. I think the responses to me has also proved this!

    Dublin won because they scored more than the team that lost. Who are no strangers to scoring more themselves more by the way.

    If it was down to finances....

    :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,088 ✭✭✭✭BonnieSituation


    Hmmm...

    Maybe I'll say it again in isolation for you:

    You can find out about money spent this year in February 2016 when accounts are released.

    In the meantime please fell free to click on the links in my posts above which link to the last available accounts from February 2015 (accounts 2014).

    Dublin won because they have the pick of a population larger than a Province and finances accordingly. Perhaps they should be made enter the Railway Cup.

    YOU WILL FIND THIS OUT IN FEBRUARY 2016 WHEN THE 2015 ACCOUNTS ARE RELEASED.

    I have linked you to the 2014 accints to at as a comparison.
    oes anyone have a comparisoon with other teams?

    See above.
    From what I know Dublin have been in receipt of money from the Irish Sports Council, no other team has received any money from them.

    Where do you know(sic) this from?
    The Irish Sports Council gives funding to the GAA and from there they distribute to each CB.
    If the ISC gave money to the GAA for a specific Dublin reason then it would be in the GAA accounts above.
    How much has all the money they received played in them winning 3 of the last 5 All Irelands?
    It has contributed. Hard to really know exactly know where it fits in.
    The biggest factor is the DCB getting its finger out of its hole over the last 10 years.
    The quantifiable factor here is that we've won 3 all Ireland titles in 5 years or 4 in 32 years
    Would they have won them anyway?
    How can we know?
    Is it fair for one county to spend far more money than everyone else?

    Spend or receive?
    What is fair? How do we quantify it?
    If you don't think it is then what should be done?
    As above.

    50 times. 50 times you have asked the question!

    Look the secret that no one is letting you in on is buy a Parnell Park season ticket and they send you a surprise.

    Here's mine.

    Thanks Irish Sports Council.

    Youll give yourself a heart attack OP. Your calling posters out and then whinging when someone complains!!

    Dublin won it because they played the better football, were the better team and wanted it more. End of really. Fair play to them for it.
    Money can't give you the 2 attribute above.
