Losing the free match was a kick in the nads. But in theory you have up to 3 opt outs now in hurling.

If you attend the 4 round robin matches plus the final in Munster or 5 round robin in Leinster, you qualify without attending any more games (Leinster Final, AIQF, AISF)

I think I remember some talk of "Championship" Season tickets being mentioned at the start of the year. Is this no longer happening?

Even if you attended 6 championship matches you would still have people saying you don't deserve a ticket. For example judging by social media this week no-one deserves a ticket for the Derry Donegal match unless they had travelled to Tralee in January or went to the McKenna cup matches.

Even if you did go to those matches they would then say you don't deserve it as you aren't an Under 11 coach.

if you have 2 season tickets on one a/c is it possible not to buy 1 for one match and then not buy 1 for a different match and still qualify.
Theres no way of knowing which one is which. No seperate a/c number

Christ almighty this is brutal, imagine having the opportunity to follow a team like Derry

theres a certain beauty to the new system as it evens things up

On one extreme, if you are a Cavan fan and you magically end up getting to the All ireland final, thats a run of 4 provincial championship games, 3 round robbin, probable prelim quarter, quarter and semi to get to the final . In total 10 (TEN) games.

The likes of Kerry or Roscommon have 2 less provincial games and another game less if they avoid the prelim all ireland quarter by being first in the round robbin, so just 7 games to qualify for the all ireland final.

With the "skip one" system, a Cavan fan would have 9 games to pay for to get an all ireland final ticket, with Kerry just 6 games. At least with the "pick 6" system you do not have a penalty for your county having more games. Everyone pays the same.

Terrace Tickets only for the Munster Football Final is a bit of a kick in the balls to be honest.

A lot of people have the Season Tickets to guarantee a Stand Ticket (not always possible) which is useful for Elderly and very young supporters.

I was looking forward to the atmosphere in Ennis but with a 3 year old in tow it isn't right to bring him to the terrace.

Not much to be done, but I would have expected a few tickets to be allocated to Season Ticket holders on a first come first served basis.

Presumably it was the same for the Limerick v Clare hurling game last week?

Is there 4,000 seats in Cusack Park?

Presumably the problem here is a home and away arrangement for a final, which would not happen in other provinces. Limerick or Thurles would have more seated accommodation as neutral venues.

Funny enough Clare are one of the counties in Munster that Kerry don't have a home and away arrangement with for Munster Finals.

The Great Limerick Run is on in Limerick on the 5th so it can't go ahead in Limerick so they tossed a coin.

Its not the end of the world it's just a minor irritation.

€40 for a Leinster final ticket. That won’t do anything to get people to go. The atmosphere yesterday in Croke Park was dead. Leinster council need to open their eyes and move every game bar the final out of Dublin. Even if 15000 turn up in o moore or o Connor park is better than 25000 in Croke Park.

The price point definitely needs to be looked at. Those prices were fine for people when games were spread out. Under the revised condensed calendar, people are under more pressure.
