Was sold out though, just a good few no shows on the day, probably FAI freebies.
Do you expect the FAI to stand over people and force them to buy a ticket?Quote:

Did you just crawl out of a cave? Radio, bustops, billboards, papers and social media campaigns.Quote:

i want to attend, not supporting either team but no decent neutral tickets on sale. only seems to be handful of neutral seats at all on ticketmaster. it cant be because its almost sold out.

Well we have all heard or seen the FAI's record on accountability over the years!Quote:

Saying over 35000 tickets sold now. Again, I’ll be surprised if the attendance on the day is more than 2021.
