Ticket decision made on promotion and reward basis

Liam O’Neill hopes the GAA’s decision to significantly cut ticket prices for the All-Ireland final replay double-header on September 28 will change people’s perceptions of them as “a grab all organisation”.

In reducing prices by almost 40% across the board and making more children’s tickets available, the Association are forfeiting a potential €2m in gate receipts.

The GAA president insists the decision was made purely on a promotion and reward basis.
