Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

It’s difficult to try and second guess the intentions of another counties supporters, but let’s take a look at some of the facts and try to reassure ourselves a little regarding the figures of Offaly v Tipperary fans. On Wednesday last I again witnessed the entire county of Offaly, well close on 20...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

There won't be 13500 tipp fans, I'd say closer to 7-8 k at least. Maybe more. Also I'd imagine there be 1500 tickets sold to neutrals etc. Alot of interest in this game . The must win game in the senior? The dogs on the street knew cork were going to beat Tipperary. This is different. Tipperary are...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

The net effect of not seeking an allocation means the proportion of Offaly to Tipp fans will likely be around 20,000:7,000 in a worst case scenario. What's your rationale for the 20,000:7,000 ratio even though Tipp clubs have about 5k alone? Massive fuck up by County Board here, more than likely 50...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

There be a lot more than 5k from Tipperary in attendance. I'd be in agreement with you. This is their last big hurling day of the year. A bank holiday Saturday evening and just a stones throw away for many, there will be plenty from Tipp there. The chance to walk out of Kilkenny of all places with ...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

The net effect of not seeking an allocation means the proportion of Offaly to Tipp fans will likely be around 20,000:7,000 in a worst case scenario. With an allocation it probably would’ve been closer to 22,000:5,000. Not enormous in the grand scheme of things but I think the thing that’s grating on...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

I suspect Offaly turned down a separate allocation for two reasons. 1 - They thought that TM would meet the demand. The match being at 7:15pm in theory should have dampened the attendance. 2 - It's 24 years since Offaly clubs had to ration an allocation of tickets. There is no longer muscle memory ...

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

Clubs on Tipp getting an allocation, yet no word of clubs in Offaly. As far as I know this internet thing has reached Tipperary too, so why the neef for Tipp clubs to get tickets and yet none here. GUBU springs to mind. Was there ever an All Ireland before where the clubs of one county got tickets ...

Will O’Callaghan now reporting that Offaly clubs haven’t received an allocation.

Something has gone awry here.

Re: Offaly Under 20s hurling 2024

My reading of the situation is 14k tickets went on general sale and all 14k sold out within minutes.

The rest have been distributed to the clubs.

However the radio silence from Offaly and Tipp makes me think moves are afoot behind the scenes.
