FAI Welcomes €11 million Sports Capital Grants for Football
The FAI today welcomed the €11 million in Sports Capital Grant allocations announced by Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism, John O’Donoghue, T.D. Commenting on the grants, FAI Chief Executive Officer John Delaney said “the allocations announced today to over 100 clubs and associations involved in football provide further evidence of the Minister and the Government’s commitment to support football throughout the country”.
Mr Delaney said that with more people participating in football than any other team sport in Ireland, the development of facilities is a huge priority. “With 450,000 people involved in football, infrastructure is the key to continuing to increase participation while also improving the product and the players in the long term”, Delaney said. “Today’s funding allocations are another welcome boost to the creation and development of this infrastructure”, he added.

Plenty of evidence there of the GAA's unique fund-raising talent that we're always being told about.

Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
Your maths sems a little confusing to me. If Kildare are getting 1.4m, then that's well in excess of the GAA's 715K, or 50.84%.Originally Posted by strangeirish

As Boh Diddley points out, the rednecks are getting well looked after again, despite their constantly banging on about their own fund-raising efforts.
Remind me again, what's the #1 participatory sport in this country?

Is barstooling a sport?
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
EL clubs and regional centres are not included...dont know why
I was lead to believe that Newbridge Town FC was relying on a grant to part-fund the new 1,200 seater stand. It looks like, if they did apply, they didn't even get a cent...
Just Galways here.......
Allocated 3,333,500
GAA 1,655,000 (49.65%)
Other 883,500.(26.51%)
Soccer 795,000 (23.84%)
Same scam as last year.
Kerry gets 3.4m which 3rd highest after Dublin in Cork where there is no comparison in populations.
Guess where the Minister is from?
O'Donoghue's Kerry gets twice as much sports fundingOriginally Posted by pete
ireland.com (needs sub.), but you get the idea...
The EL should be getting that every year from the government. Its peanuts
