Replying To ForeverBlue2:  "The GAA must have been too embarrassed to publish the official attendance figure for the Dublin/Roscommon game… reckoned to be under 10k… The GAA football Championship is in a pityfull position at present thanks to the big wigs greed and constant changing of both rules and competition structures…"
Is the constant changing not mostly coming from the supporters? All I keep hearing is calls for more and more changes.

Dublin v Ros 11,176.

Total attendances Round 1 around 68k.
Probably nett €1m for the GAA coffers.

Imagine playing a game that attracts 10k in a 82 thousand stadium. Lord above, we really know how to market our games and make them attractive

Dublin County Boards' choice of venue for their home fixture.

Indeed. Other than the unlikely event of drawing a genuine contender in first game- Mayo in this case - it has decreasing merit.

I hate when DCB put hurlers there. Dismal place on a cold Spring night with 6,000 people,spread around.
