Croke park need to look at ticket distribution. Wait times of over 2 hours online today and another 1 hour again now. Thats a joke in this day and age. westkerry (Kerry) - Posts: 1250 - 06/08/2019 22:23:22 2221944 Link
Tickets for all Ireland semi finals shud be clubs first and let the rest scramble afterwards. Bet some Joe soaps who weren't at a match all year will be in Croker Saturday. Bandwagon starts this weekend. WildPundit (Tipperary) - Posts: 1709 - 06/08/2019 22:38:45 2221957 Link

Queued for 4 hours today only for the site to crash and be too;d that tickets had sold out, Useless service. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 1974 - 06/08/2019 22:43:08 2221965 Link

Listen, Croke Park don't give a flying f about how long a wait you have. If they did they'd have addressed this issue before now. It's been pure daft for years and you have touts and all sorts of gombeens getting tickets and they shouldn't be anywhere near a match at this stage of the proceedings. catch22 (USA) - Posts: 2148 - 06/08/2019 22:43:16 2221966 Link

West if you don't have a tickets.ie account set up one tonight and put up your address and credit card details. Then sign on in the morning before tickets are live. Not certain that could help but many people just clicking on site and going through ordering and filling in details as they go. If you're logged in already with details saved it might give you an advantage in the queue and help to prevent you timing out or getting kicked out if you forget details like Eircode.

The only thing that matters to the GAA in yet another mess, is that it will be a sell out. It won't matter that the scalpers, band wagonners, will all win out & get tickets. moc.dna (Galway) - Posts: 1212 - 07/08/2019 00:54:01 2221999 Link

Thanks for that. Going to do that now. avonali (Dublin) - Posts: 1974 - 07/08/2019 09:04:17 2222036 Link

I think the little green man is skipping the queue. He certainly seems to be walking somewhere very fast. tyroneed (Tyrone) - Posts: 753 - 07/08/2019 15:30:40 2222222 Link
I don't think GAA can be held directly responsible for this. The ticket distributors have questions to answer though and I hope croke park are letting them know it. This will be the first sold out semi final for a good while, and the first with a one week turnaround... so seems like the system wasn't able for it. Also... go join your local club. You'll have no bother getting tickets then himachechy (Donegal) - Posts: 293 - 07/08/2019 15:39:08 2222226 Link
Had it for the Wexford match, long delay when they went on sale and no the day after that. Calm down people and sure the bandwagon can go as well if they want, its a free country and the lad "there all year" can get stuffed if he didn't have a season ticket.

Castlebar Mitchels for instance have over 700 members and have often had to raffle off their ticket allocations for All-Ireland finals. Much better to be a member of a smaller rural club in these instances. Gleebo (Mayo) - Posts: 2208 - 07/08/2019 15:48:46 2222235 Link
