We just need to get Dundalk and Cork to keep contesting the final...
The 2010 final had a lot of novelty value attached as the Aviva was just opened and there were tickets available. That was the point at which the FAI should have been looking to build the attendance with a lot of non LoI people there. We dont know what sort of money that the Cup Final generates in total and whether there is a surplus, but surely it would have been in the FAI's interests to make the effort to promote the game, fill the stadium and cover costs and even make some money. Its seems that involves some serious effort compared to putting Celtic/Liverpool IX on a ticket and no more marketing is needed.
