Munster Council set to revise split of big-game gate receipts

Munster GAA chiefs are planning to change the division of gate revenue among counties in the Munster championship.

A draft proposal is being discussed at senior level within the council which proposes reducing the amount of money to be collected by the county ‘hosting’ the game in favour of the counties travelling to play in the venue.

In the case of Cork and Waterford playing in Thurles in next year’s Munster hurling championship, for instance, the Tipperary County Board would receive less money from the gate and Cork and Waterford would collect more than would be the case under the current agreement.
