GAA or GaGa

Watched a bit of yeaterdays fare from Croker a dissapointing crowd .So here is the question is the GAA dead financially as nobody are going to the games .the biggest crowds at any of the main Grounds this year have been conserts .I had one of the Dublin County Board in the car last night and I put this to him then I said was he aware that the new stadium is it Casement Park in Belfast was delayed because the local council (God save the Queen ) would not grant them an entertainment licence as it was a sporting venue and was in reciept of Government funding from Westminster ,and without concerts it was a financial red herring .He sort of agreed he recons its Dublin fans that are keeping the Association out of the red he said they need Cork back near the top as their supporters turn up.Looking at the Curragh yesterday the crowd was poor for an Irish Oaks Day .Is there just too much sport available .
Jack Meoff:
Only 17k at the Munster football final this year.
I remember back in the 80s going to a Cork and Kerry final down the park and around 50k there.

Dublin in September is not the same without the heads from Cork good sportsmen dont take themselves to serious unlike the stone munchers from Mayo a desperate shower of hate filled bastards .

Irish soccer is a second no third rate product a total waste of money the heads running it would purloin any funds .The future for LOI is to go back amateur and local lads playing locally Wouldnt matter how much money you trow at LOI football its absolute shite .Until LOI sides are obliged to have Schoolboy sides affiliated the league will get no better .Go out any sunday and watch schoolboy football its all hit and run total lack of skill .Kids dont learn ball control any more playing street football .Cherryorchard and Ballyfermot Utd were huge teams thought boys how to play Homefarm were world leaders but now nobody gives a fuck about schoolboy football .I use to manage a schoolboy team but I wouldnt bother now .A good mate of mine was sued because a player fell getting off the bus Insurance didnt cover it but the kids parents said that my pal did not control the group .The case was lost but still cost over 8K to defend it .He won but he lost .FAI destroyed the game all about a big statement stadium and wages and fuck the players .
