I stayed in the Plaza off O'Connell St. for €170 last night. Was a good few Mayo people stayed last night. When I checked in after the match I asked about the 1st. Saturday night, €300 ! Provisionally booked.

They were clearly on the ball increasing their prices. I checked the Hilton just outside Ranelagh last night for Oct 1st for a friend coming from Mayo. It was €189 Checked again this morning ot was €349. Hotels will rake it in. Expensive outing for Mayo fans. CroiGorm (Dublin) - Posts: 1547 - 19/09/2016 19:48:21 1916562 Link 0 |

Dublin will have many more at the replay as it doesn't clash with a Man Utd game. ponga (Mayo) - Posts: 650 - 19/09/2016 20:11:13 1916582 Link 3 |

Very original. Give yourself a big pat on the back there.

Anybody know how many tickets Kerry and Galway got for the Minor final? Those tickets, at least, should be allocated to the two competing counties. GAA spokesman Alan Milton has said that non-competing counties want their allocation for the replay to be the same as for the first game so no joy for Mayo and Dublin there.

Don't see why non competing counties should be entitled to the same allocations for the replay. They had their day out on Sunday as part of tradition a replay is an extra game and as Milton says they could have sold the ground out twice over with demand from the participating counties then now is the chance to allow those participating counties the chance to do that. He also never gave a reason why yhe game is taking place on a saturday evening. The hurling replays were forced to be played on Saturdays as there were games taking place on the Sunday. But the ladies final this weekend is the last game leaving the following Sunday free. hill16no1man (Dublin) - Posts: 12665 - 20/09/2016 13:39:17 1916904 Link 0 |

Season tickets available for printing now. CroiGorm (Dublin) - Posts: 1547 - 22/09/2016 08:29:32 1917811 Link 1 |

I've an idea. As there is so much concern for those who couldn't get tickets, surely then it is only fair that those who got a ticket for the first game don't look for a ticket or better still, get one and give it to a fellow county man (or woman) who wasn't so lucky. If it's all about fairness etc then you have already got the chance to see the Final so do the decent thing and step aside for the replay.

That seems fair. Both Mayo and Dublin have season tickets sold out and many on the waiting list who, even tho they go to every game, couldn't get a ticket for last week. I think each Mayo and Dublin season ticket holder should write, in no more than 100 words, why they deserve to go to 2 finals while said waiting fan shouldn't go to either. cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5017 - 22/09/2016 17:24:56 1918037 Link 2 |

Think the reason why more mayo fans were there is that mayo will move to other counties up and down the country and get involved with clubs in that county and where not many Dublin people move outside of Dublin,like my own club got five tickets and three went to mayo born people,while we have no one from Dublin in the club cityman73 (Limerick) - Posts: 779 - 22/09/2016 17:43:18 1918049 Link 1 |

Genuine question re the season tickets usage - Kurt_Angle (Dublin) - Posts: 567 - 23/09/2016 14:18:14 1918407 Link 0 |

As far as I know they are only issuing juvenile tickets on the kids season ticket for the replay. I know of someone that asked could they get an adult ticket (and pay the full price) on one of their juvenile tickets and were told no, so he might have problems getting the wife in on it. That being said I'm sure there will be plenty that will buy a full priced ticket for their kids so he could probably arrange a swap, even if its only to get through the turnstile, on here or one of the other forums that were letting people organise swaps before the drawn game.

At least you're honest enough not to deny it but what puzzles me is are you more upset that Mayo didn't roll over or that united did ?
