When I emailed asking about our seats I also asked when they'd be sent out and this is what he said: Tickets will be posted from Croke park tomorrow so you should receive them early next week.

So hopefully they will actually send them tomorrow. Waiting for something so important is no fun!

I can foresee a lot of posties being knocked off their bikes and postbags riffled :pac:

Anything lower than Row T no matter the section is a ****e seat whether in Section 301, 305 or 311.

I know it's a burden, i'll take it off your hands

Horses for courses I suppose, pitchside is fine for me once it's central.
Better than up the very back where the lads on the telly are running the opposite way to the lads on the field

that must be as confusing as hell.

like the time they moved cameras for a final once to the cusack stand. it took my ages to work out it was croke park the game i was watching was on in.

Both of them? :P

Nah, there's no place for ye lads in there. Minor or not.

I'm delighted to be there. I just fear the rain. Last year was a gowl.

That happens me the whole time watching matches I've been at. Even today watching the SF v The Evil Empire was confusing remembering incidents in reverse from the Cusack view I had!

Anyone know what a Team Ticket is?

I've seen a competition being run on Facebook for two final tickets, with a photo of them posted. They look genuine, have price of zero and are marked as "Team Ticket".

Strange thing is, the comp is being run by a Cork based small business.
Also of note, is that they are pretty decent seats, Cusack, 307 RR, which I though would be season ticket holders. Seems we're being pushed aside for others, as far as 301 & 311 in some cases.

Yes all of these competitions have nice central seats

Trampas

303 r high number.

Not delighted after having tickets since start and miss 2 games all season

Mine came this morning. 307 L which I knew already. Can't complain at all. Looking forward to it now.

Really is a joke. The season tickets should be for sections 05, 06 and 07.

It's not even that
It's the fact that a lot are but some are not
There is no pattern to it
It's not due to attendance, seating groups or length they have been held for
It's needs to be a transparent process in the interest of fairness

The funny thing is that it is for all but the final. Given the nature of the season ticket, I'd imagine most season ticket holders would be at quarter and semi finals too, so the only justification for this is that seats from the season ticket sections are being given out elsewhere too at the expense of season ticket holders.

I got lucky this year (305) but was shunted down to the corner last year

Just got my ticket this morning. 100% attendance for all mayo matches this year (including London although that isn't counted on the card). Got section 301 for the final. It certainly seems to be pot luck what seats you get.
Still, at least I don't have to worry about hunting for a ticket. The one major plus of the season ticket

They do say it's 100% random, no preference based on how long you have had the season ticket.

The only people posting about being placed in 301 or 311 so far are mayo supporters ..........

I'd wait and see next Sunday before starting the conspiracy theories.

Your working off a poll of about 7 or 8 people.

I'd be fairly sure there will be plenty of Dubs in 301 and 311 too.
Same as plenty of Mayo fans in 304/305/306

We'll see. I have yet to see one Dublin supporter either on this forum or any other say they've been allocated seats in 301 or 311. Plenty of Mayo supporters shunted down to the ends though. It seems from looking across here, mayogaablog, reservoir dubs, twitter etc. that Mayo have been allocated 301, 302 and 311. Dublin are in 303 and 304 with a mix in the central areas.

BonnieSituation

Mine landed this morning.

Are the lads in 301 and 311 in seating groups though?

That could account for it. mayo.mick is in a group I think.

Groups should be shunted in reality but I'm still at a loss at the variance in seating arrangements for the lot of us.

Some groups are being moved some aren't
Do you think those groups should have shunted off to the side for the quarters and semis too . There was plenty of seats available to the groups then . What has changed ?
All the dubs must have single tickets . No groups ........

Again we can't be certain but given that Mayo and Dublin are the only oversubscribed STs it's perhaps not surprising that this is happening. Similarly the seats I had for the SF (I and II) last year were **** (305A and 306C) and I would say it was on account of the game being v Mayo.

I'll wait for some Dub heads to get in on it and see how their groups fare.

As an FYI I have 2*305G (me and a juvenile)

Menoetius

305 N in a group of 2. Well maybe not so much a group as they are both on the same account.

Was down in 309 last year despite being in 306 & 305 all year up till then.

Every final I've been to so far this decade has had a nice even mix throughout.
Can't see anything but that happening next week.
