    For league games it can be iffy, unless its two big or rival counties playing.
    ie: Dublin v Meath, Cork v Kerry, Armagh v Tyrone.
    You cant really go wrong when the Championship starts, good crowds at all games.

    I don't really go to Armagh games these days, as i don't like the county board as they are a bunch of *.

    I am more passionate about my local club, always go to the games if i am not playing for them.

    Crowds for County football vary depending on the Competition.

    In National League games the crowds are not as big as Championship games.

    It also depends on what counties are playing.


    Championship games are a good day out,but not as crazy as they used to be since the recession kicked in.

    Cheers for the info lads :50:

    I was looking at the GAA based over here, hoping that a game would be near me soon just to see a match live. Next few games are scheduled for Edinburgh though. Hopefully see one at some point, even better if it was a proper one across in Ireland :50:

    Hop on a boat or plane go to a Antrim match in Casement park Belfast.
    Over and back the same day if you had to, wouldnt be out much money at all either.

    James Horan has expressed amazement at his opposite number Jim Gavin's comments that Dublin faced a '16th man' in referee Joe McQuillan during Sunday's All-Ireland final win.







    The Mayo manager also called on Gavin to reflect on his pre-All Ireland final comments that he would "step back" from his job if his team were involved in cynical play.
    Dublin were guilty of hauling down Mayo players on a series of occasions during the last 10 minutes of their one-point win at Croke Park and have been criticised for their cynical streak as they closed out the game with just 13 fully operational players.
    But Gavin has denied that his team were cynical, claiming that the fouls came from their frustration at what he described as a "very disappointing" refereeing display.
    Horan was taken aback by his opposite number's response, saying: "I find that amazing. I find that absolutely amazing if that was the comment.
    "I know Jim made another interesting comment – that he'd walk away if his team were cynical, so maybe that's another comment Jim should look at.
    "What was the free count? And what were Dublin saying after the semi-final last year? Were they shouting up and down about it? asked Horan, who qualified that Dublin were worthy All-Ireland champions.
    Prior to the All-Ireland final, Gavin reiterated his principled approach to fouling by his players. "I would be loath to think that if anyone said this Dublin team is cynical, you know, I'd take a step back if that was the case. I certainly wouldn't tolerate it from them and they know that as well," he said, comments similar to what he has consistently said since taking over the job.

    You would think the GAA games would be an attractive package for the US market at least.
