So like IF the minors make it all the way to an all ireland final, does your season ticket give you any entitlement for tickets? Asking for a friend and all that.

We've a lot of firepower up front, but as the game against Meath showed - and at times against Kerry - direct runners charging down the middle of the field can cause us serious bothers. I've noticed the pundits have gone a bit more quiet on us of late, especially since Kerry beat ye. They almost seem relieved that they can big Kerry up now instead of us... It's all propaganda. I'm optimistic and can see us edging it but friggin hell I can't see how people can be so certain that one team or the other are nailed on winners. It'll be a hard slog and a cracker of a quarter final and whatever side that wins won't have blown away their opponent.

Massive controversy in the aftermath about the broken jaw etc. I also remember Big Tom Byrne (78 minor) coming on late in the second half and nearly pulling the head off a Dublin defender! McStay had half a chance to win it at the death but fumbled the pass. I didn't get to the replay and the policy at the time was not to show live coverage on telly. Crazy stuff as Kerry and Monaghan drew in the other semi final.

Got a ticket for that back home). I got upper Hogan stand tickets just behind the cameras for all the others and I think they were about £6. It's crazy to think back to how easy it was to get tickets in those days.
