Why do Sligo not issue Tickets

**gufct** · 10/07/2010, 4:21 PM

Once again in the showgrounds only cash taken no Tickets issued and thats the second time this season.How can the club issue official attendances or reconcile their takings. The only ground in the premier that it happens at or is there another reason for no tickets being issued?

The turnstile attendants have photographic memories.

Or else we can't afford tickets.

Save the trees man, peace out!!

If the turnstiles are metered there's no need for tickets.

No idea if sligo's are

A condition of the Premier Division licence is the issuing of tickets.

Don't bet on any sanctions!

This happens in every ground in Ireland both football and GAA and while imo the GAA rob every penny people at the LOI clubs know that if they take a single penny the club could crumble so they dont.

Athlone is the only stadium ive been in this season that offers a ticket for league games and announces and releases an official attendance.

No its not. If the stiles are metered they don't need to produce tickets

One of lifes little luxurys.
I think the real question here isnt why we dont issue tickets but why the Galway issue tickets when they could comfortably estimate their crowds on their two hands.

We give tickets and release official figures after every game.
I also got a ticket in Wexford.
None in Longford, Monaghan or Derry though.
