About time they did something like this for the die hards in every county.... been suggesting they do some thing similar at club level for ages.... trying to get club to propose pricing packages at the county board convention before christmas in which if you bought a weekend ticket for club championship games... in our county you'll have fri,sat and sunday fixtures (on both sat/sun you could conceivably go to 2 games on those days if fixtures were properly manipulated). Also both hurling and football championships are initially in pools of 4, so another ticket at a much reduced price for your clubs 3 games... if sold through clubs they could take a similar fee to ticketmaster and generate income....

Any better suggestions out there or tweeks to those ideas?

Excellent.

Great idea. Will ensure that more real supporters get tickets. What I would like also to see is that kids who go to league games are given some sort of token that will allow them to get tickets for later stages of championship when even within clubs they are frozen out by older members who were not at those games. Indeed lots of clubs don't allow members below minor to even apply for tickets.

ive checked it out and while the idea is good is does stink of being a bit of a money making scheme more so than a loyalty scheme

this is the bit i dont like

This is a season ticket so you will be automatically charged in advance of every subsequent match that your county plays in the Allianz GAA National League (i.e. the League Final) and the GAA Championships whether you attend or not.

Also not much use to families as where do the kids go in croke park

Can children accompany a Season Ticket holder? Children may of course accompany the Season Ticket holder to any fixture under the same admittance policy as all other juveniles for the fixture in question. The Season Ticket entitles only one person to entry.

Can I sit next to a season ticket holder if I dont own one? If the seating is unreserved you can sit wherever is available on the match day. If the seating is reserved you will be seated in the Season Ticket section with other Season Ticket holders only.

Is there an age limit to the Season Ticket? Yes, you must be 18 or over to purchase and use the Season Ticket.

i would have reservations over that part as well moneypenny but you can opt out when you choose .

7 NL games by €15 plus €25 for first championship game , so €55 saving if you attend all and you have a guaranteed 304/305 ticket for croker and saves you the hassle of going looking for them aswell , so benefits prob outweigh the negatives and at least they are trying something to benefit the diehard.

I would like a guarantee that if you attend 60% of croker matches you are entitled to an all ire ticket though i suppose thats a bit too much to ask.

Presume you're fishing tubbsy full stop. In the eunlikely event hthat it's a genuine enquiry it's 130 a year guaranteed Hill tickets for all championship games hurling and football free entry to PP for all Dublin County Board arranged games i.e. National League hurling and football and all club games.

O'Byrne and Walsh cups not included afaik.
