Dublin receive millions more than any other county in development grants

06-02-2018 5:01pm#1Dublin receive €15.4 million more than any other county in development grants over the last decade
As if we didn't know
gotta shake the head at the amount though.
Mayo ranks 26th on the list! Better hope we dont get a fair share in the coming years :P
Article also had the very interesting payments to year end 31/10/2017, Mayo 6th on this list, more than a million behind Dublin!

Has anyone any other figures to throw into the mix?0

That and their population, money, play every game at home, food delivered to their houses, money, sponsorship, money, GPO’s, super clubs, money, coaching structures, money, hard work, talent, exceptional coach and back room team, money. This has been done to death at this stage. Is that you Spewan😂
That all appears to be true, but no harm to notice on a monthly basis that it's still going on and on and on and on and on, and I noticed you mentioned money 5 times. That's about the right proportion
Have to ask, who's SpewanðŸ?0 -

Maybe you people should try paying the skyhigh property taxes that Dubs have to put up with before you start demanding more grants.0 -

What's that got to do with anything?
Look at the total outlay column. Cork got the biggest share last year presumably on basis that they have most clubs and members, not Dublin which has second most.
This is just more whining to evade the fact that reason Dublin beat Mayo is that they are a better team
Its not rocket science. Nor to do with money which in any event favours the Mayo senior footballers. What do they spend it on? Hair stylists
Mayo also have one of the lowest spends on games development. Well, I suppose they wouldn't want to be taking money from the prima donnas ........ and their hair dressers.0 -

That outlay figure for Cork was primarily funding for Pairc Ui Chaoimh.0 -

It's 15 men against 15 men. Despite Mayo's significant advantage in the money spent on the senior footballers.
You've forgotten about the free cars.... Again
Subaru will provide vehicles to the players and management of the Dublin senior football and hurling teams.

I've honestly never seen a player drive a car around a football pitch 0 -

So the difference between Dublin and Westmeath is that Dublin players might get a car?
I am intrigued by your ideas.
I don't think its just the about the car. Having had a look at the official Dublin GAA sponsors, it appears that a dublin player gets the free car to pick yer on up on a saturday night, a lovely free restaurant to take yer one out too, followed by a rather nice free hotel room (official sleeping partner ) to take yer one back too afterwards. No other county gets this level of commitment from sponsors. Its no wonder the Dublin players try so hard and push themselves to their limits.

Who's Ewan?He gets paid per click for his click bait articles so maybe coming on to boards is not worthwhile for him .. in no particular order his latest clickbaits were along the lines of
1. Pauric Duffy created a financially doped Dublin
2. Rugby is an elitest sport that most in Ireland can't relate to or participate in
3. It's our own fault that we have drugs cheats
4. Women don't deserve the same pay as men in sport as they aren't as good

In fairness, there is truth in point 1 and 3.
Point 2 is a reality for a certain percentage of the country, although not all.
While point 4 is an interesting topic, well in his article, not so much in your selective description.0 -

In a nutshell, Dublin has the highest amount of registered players, that coupled with the overheads associated with any aspect of the game in Dublin are colossal in comparison to any other county. County grant distribution is worked out meticulously by the GAA and is distributed evenly based upon on the above influencing factors. There is no financial doping, Mayo are just shįte.
You’re welcome, you can close the tread now.
*takes a bow*
A team that takes Dublin to its limits (and not just once) is ****e???
You're not saying a whole lot about the Dublin team then are you. Careful you don't bow too low and find your head up you own "where the sun don't shine" 0 -

How unusual is that, a really successful team having a myriad of well known brands offering sponsorship, must be a worldwide first......0 -
