Must be another one of these tickets that get dished out around the country to local GAA clubs for a neutral GAA supporter to go and watch and deprive a supporter from the counties in the final from getting a chance to see their team in the final

Hate the system not the fan. 

It's a joke. Tickets going to clubs around the world.

I used to feel the same about this(On the face of it it has a "football family" feel about it) but 20 years being involved in the UK has changed my opinion slightly on this. I used to come home for most championship games but this became a lot less frequent when they clashed with having to tog out in Ruislip or Greenford at the same time or latterly trying to get a team out to play. The GAA is, in theory, the most democratic of organisations with all members being valued so people see the gesture of tickets going to clubs abroad as a recognition by the GAA that your contribution is valued and respected (even though nobody gets involved to get access to tickets) i.e. These are our 2 biggest days of the year and you, as a member, can be there to celebrate them. In reality, the number of tickets involved is small: At a guess, I'd say the number of tickets given to England, Scotland and Wales is around 100-150 in total.
Full disclosure, I have got a ticket through my club a few times - Would not have got one otherwise. Generally with our club, the tickets go to people from the competing counties.
Before moving to the UK I used to go to all championship matches and some league games but because I wasn't a member of the club in my home town (Played on the school GAA team but played other sports outside of school), I'd always struggle to try and find a ticket for any finals that Dublin got into. The GAA need to do a better job of rewarding fans who follow their county teams all year as there are some who don't get tickets to finals. 

Anyways, back on to the main focus of this thread - Looking forward to having a few pints of the black stuff in Dublin's finest establishments on Sunday.

#GAA.ie Your tickets are waiting for you......is a promo ad broadcast on media. They omitted the line...."except for the final where you are not getting a ticket because we can fill the ground with true gaels, but thanks for buying tickets for all the other games, ya saps".

If the bus leaves you on the quays and you're looking for something different try Inn On The Liffey 

Was at a few mad dance gigs there in the early/mid 00’s. Defo had a bit of a “anything goes” sort of set up. 


You must've had a serious amount of yolks, it's a gay sauna LOL
It would damage this forums' reputation

Clubs are the lifeblood of the GAA, a carlow  or Leitrim U16 trainer who probably has no chance of seeing his/her county in an all Ireland should and deserves a chance to attend the national showpiece event

LOL No comment on the yokes but it was converted from a bar to a guesthouse. There used to be a pub downstairs and a small function room on the first floor

I have zero issues with tickets going to clubs around the country or the UK. It's tickets going to clubs in the middle east etc that bothers me.

I've been told they do. But then again have never met anyone from any of those clubs to confirm.

Ticks all the boxes for me for a Dublin pub. 

Great Guinness 
Lack of dickheads
Great transport links to it. (Handy for everyone to get home from)
Great name

Was there in June and have a great night of pints and a catch up with my mate since I was 8.  

Bohs 👏👏👏
Bowes 👏👏👏👏
