    Hello everyone! ;)

    My friend and I are both French but we're really getting into GAA and would loooove to go see Dublin - Tyrone tomorrow! Unfortunately, we ahve no tickets and we don't know where to look... Ticketmaster (the only place I could think of) don't seem to sell tickets for this match...

    Could anybody here point me in the right direction? Or are all the tickets sold out? In which case I should just forget about it... :(

    Hi Steffano, as far as I know they are all sold out. If you are around the ground tomorrow you may get one at face value. Glad to see you are enjoying the sport.

    What you think Waylander?

    You reckon there might be a few tickets around Dorset Street tomorrow? Think I will mosey on down and take a chance, would like to see the match tomorrow. Worst thing that could happen is be stuck in a pub, not a bad worst case scenario :)

    I fancy Tyrone tbh, but would like Dublin to win it. Good Luck anyway !

    Well there was no problem getting tickets before the foirst game, but that was not sold out. I would have thought Tyrone fans were sick of travelling to Croker at this stage, but maybe they have just decided to wait for the replay each round from now on :D . I am inclined to agree with you Culchie, I would make Tyrone favourites but they are far from a dead cert. To be honest at the start of the season I thought Leinster football was a bit off the pace myself, but faith has been restored over the championship to date. I think if it is tight late on Tyrone may find themselves in trouble as they don't seem to be able to out teams away, and Dublin seem to be able to score late on in matches when required. Looking forward to it anyway. Up the Dubs!!!!!!!!!!!

    there were people selling tickets for less than face value before the last match - at the Hogan stand entrance. I bet the same thing will happen tomorrow.

    oh, and if you can - try to get the ladies match in too - should prove to be an excellent game. throw-in @ 12:45.

    Cheers Folks, I've a feeling I'll have to watch the lovely ladies on the TV, as the tickets touts will still be trying to get top price at this stage.

    So we could potentially get tickets at the following locations:

    - Around the Ground
    - Dorset Street
    - Ballybough Road
    - Hogan Stand Entrance

    Sounds like we'll be walking around the area quite a bit tomorrow! :p

    Anybody else can think of anything we could try?

    And of course, thank you all for your help lads! ;)

    Steffano, there should be a few around the place. You shouldn't have to walk too far.

    Basically don't be shy, ask the barman, all the fellahs at the bar, it's normal practice.

    Any genuine GAA fan will give you a ticket at face value if they have one spare.

    The Cork vs. Kerry game mightn't be as good Sunday but there'll be plenty of tickets available for it if you can't get any for tomorrow's match Steffano.

    Thanks for the advice Culchie! I won't hold back tomorrow then! ;)

    And thank you Lemlin for reminding me about Sunday's match! If I can't go see Dublin - Tyrone tomorrow I might just go see Cork - Kerry...

    Thanks lads! :D

    Steffano, ask the Gardai at the barriers on the Conliffe Road, they had millions the last day, you might get them free too........

    I would say the Cork Kerry game on Sunday should be every bit as good a game, it just will not have as good an atmosphere, as allot of their fans will not travel all the way up for the game. Skillwise though it is two very good teams playing against each other. Would make Kerry favourites for this one as Cork are a team in development, although they have developed very quickly this season.

    Don't worry about it Steffano, anything to keep people away from Dublin games!
