GAA sees gate receipts rise €2.5m in 2012

The GAA's annual accounts for 2012 show how lucrative last September's All-Ireland SHC final replay was to the Association.

The rematch between Kilkenny and Galway brought in €2.8m, but as ticket prices for the game had been reduced from €80 to €50, the GAA missed out on additional revenue of upwards of €1m.
