ALL IRELAND TICKETS.
I know im probably asking for a miracle here guys but if by any chance 2 football tickets were to find their way into somebody's lap and were looking for a home then they would be greatly appreciated here. An uncle of mine who was a schoolteacher in west Cork taught a few of the Cork lads and hasn't missed a Cork league or championship game in 7 years, he is now panicking for a couple of tickets as his usual source is not in the country anymore. CHEERS GUYS.

Re: ALL IRELAND TICKETS.
Getting tickets on the day won't be much problem, Cork and Kerry isn't a huge crowd bringer.
Remember football in Cork football isn't nearly as big as hurling.
2 years ago tickets for the exact pairing in the AI final, tickets were readily available on the streets for face value or less.
I decided to go at the last minute to see the 1982 Offaly team and within 2 minutes of arriving outside Quinns, I was being offered tickets by 2 or 3 different people trying to sell their spares.
Factor in the economy collapsing in the last two years - there won't be any disappointed fans locked out.
Most ticketless fans from both counties will be afraid to make the long journey, meaning that all the spare tickets that make their way to Dublin on All Ireland weekend will be hard to sell.
At the hurling last weekend, people were hard pressed to offload tickets in the pubs before the match.
It'll be the same on Sunday week.

Re: ALL IRELAND TICKETS.
Cheers BNMM, i'll advise himself to maybe travel into Dublin on the day, I'm not sure though if he will travel without a ticket but the more I think of it you are probably right in that on the morning of the match there will more than likely be tickets available a few hours before the throw in. Thanks again.
