Final Tickets

Tickets on ticketmaster at noon today just like I thought. If you don’t get one there still be plenty around between here and Sunday.

no luck for me, I'll keep refreshing hoping someone releases some

I kept clicking and got one davin upper and one nally. Now an argument over who gets what ticket.

That's about the worst excuse I've ever heard for not supporting your county while calling yourself a genuine supporter in your previous post.

I live in Meath and missed 1 Kerry game this year cos I couldn't get off work for the Donegal game in Killarney. I love the spin down for games and if we win, the journey feels like nothing at all.

I'm sure others in North Galway are embarrassed when they see backward & bitter comments like that. Get over yourself and support your county if you want to call yourself a proper Galway fan. Rest of the county has moved on in the past 30 years and got behind the team irrespective of whether they're from Dunmore, Lettermore or Ballinasloe once they wearing the maroon jersey.

Ah, I wouldn't go as far as to ban someone lol. But the genuine supporter comment is thrown around for all finals by fans of every team and as the poster has proven themselves, they don't even go to games on down the road so.far from a genuine fan.

It's why I stopped helping friends out who don't go to games or volunteer in our club. Only want final tickets

That's absolutely ridiculous that you go club in Salthill but not county. That's spite more than support tbh.

Have 2 premium tickets for the corner of Hogan/Davin and looking to swap for 2 decent lowers (Cusack/Hogan only) plus cash my way if that would suit anyone.

They are not for sale.

Tickets are still randomly going on sale on Ticketmaster. I just picked up an Upper Hogan. It's far from the best seat in the house, but it's better than nothing.

You must have no familiarity with Croke park or what tickets you have or even what it's like to genuinely desperately need tickets.

You realise you're trying to get better tickets than the ones you have, plus cash? Do a straight swap or else take a hike.

Premium has no free food or perks and from experience the atmosphere isn't a patch on "decent lowers".

Because for someone who's going just for the match, which is what loads of people are still looking for tickets for, you are looking for someone to pay you for worse seats.

If someone wants premium obviously that's a different point of view, but the vast vast majority of people just want to see the match and I think your post smacks of being greedy. I've only ever really seen straight swaps being offered in these scenarios over the years.

Whether you like or not there will be a significant portion of people going that would only have a passing interest in the match, and might prefer to seat in a less crowded area with far better facilities. And I'm not looking to make a profit. I paid a certain amount for premium, some people paid less for the lowers. Premium seats might suit some people far better for a whole variety of different reasons. If someone wants to swap then it suits the both of us and no one loses out. If not so be it. Really don't see what the issue is.

I really don't know if this can be seriously written by someone who actually goes to games...

So basically, to summarise your point - you're annoyed that I'm looking to swap a more expensive ticket for a cheaper one and the price difference? Why would anyone take an issue with that..

I swapped my hill tickets plus cash for premium in 2019 for the replay. For the first game that year I swapped uppers for Hill tickets and cash. I pay face value and expect the same. You don't get to decide what a genuine supporter is, and you certainly don't get to decide how they go about swapping tickets.

A lot of North Galway 'supporters' have this ridiculous attitude as if Tuam Stadium is some sort of Mecca when in actuality it's a kip and always has been.

What do you propose the Galway County Board do, shake the money tree and build two intercounty stadiums? One for the 'spiritual home' that is Tuam and another for the hurlers in Athenry? Or drag the hurlers to Tuam as well to sample its hay shed for a stand themselves.
