The media will start asking questions I would imagine. Senan Connell has already raised it on TV3.
Political interference isn't confined to politicians. There is plenty of politics in the game itself.
It is quite obvious that a large amount of other counties allocations somehow ended up in Mayo. One might think that it was a successful campaign by the Mayo County Board. Given a third of the country live in Dublin and the huge numbers of Dublin Clubs that exist, just where did the tickets go and what route did they take after that ? Has anyone seen the Hill ?
Siege mentality in reverse.

Senan O'Connell would raise it, being from Dublin.
So because non-Dublin supporters acquired the majority of tickets for a particular section it must have been through illicit means?
Would you be raising the same questions if the Hill was 99% Blue and Navy today?0 -

In fairness, aren't the Hill's tickets cheaper? You can't 'mind' the cheapest stand for one team.0 -
As far as I know, each county gets an equal allocation of Hill tickets. Mostly when a county is playing the Dubs, they send back a lot of their allocation for the Hill. This obviously wasn't the case today.The media will start asking questions I would imagine. Senan Connell has already raised it on TV3.

What percentage of tickets were returned by County Boards directly to GAA HQ would you think..........
Lot of sleeper Mayo fans in other counties perhaps
Hill 16 is Dublin only (except were concerted campaigns were organised otherwise).
Anyhow let the real game begin!0 -

I live in Kilkenny and now ya say there is noticeably a large Mayo contingent down here
. A lot of them had to move for work, much less so than Dubs where that's not usually the case.
Why is it Dublin "only"? Is there some kind of franchise on it?0 -

Will you go way outta that, it is not Dublin only. The price of tickets for an All Ireland and you want one teams supporters to pay over the odds to see the same match?0 -

Lots of Mayo and Non-Dublin personnel in Dublin clubs.
How many Dubs are in the Hill for Hurling All-Irelands? Or do they close it off?0 -
