    You are automatically charged for your tickets if you use then or not. There's one opt out per season on championship tickets to allow you an AI ticket
    Point 42 of the season ticket T&Cs states
    42. In the event that the number of Season Ticket holders exceeds stadium capacity the GAA offers no guarantee of the availability of seats or entry to that fixture.

    Therefore, a season ticket does not guarantee you access to every championship game your team plays in. I'm aware season ticket holders are automatically charged but the T&Cs do not state you are guaranteed a ticket to every championship game, the above states the opposite - you aren't guaranteed a ticket.

    How many grounds have a smaller than 5000 capacity though? This is only relevant when the capacity of the whole ground is smaller than the total number of season tickets. No guarantee to seats if there is insufficient seating which is fair enough.

    People are arguing that Kildare couldn't play in Newbridge because the GAA season ticket guarantees all holders a ticket. I'm showing it doesn't.

    If Kildare were at home they have a chance of beating Mayo but I can't see them doing it in Croke Park. I know it would be very damaging to Kildare but I do hope they make a stand and don't turn up to Croke Park. Nothing will change if they back down and the GAA won't have any issues changing venues again.

    Breaking News.

    Mayo have now agreed to play the game in Newbridge.

    Statement from the Mayo Co Board have said it's the closest they will get to silverware this year.

    The Donegal man from Drimnagh is out for the season with a cruciate injury - huge loss to them going into the super 8's .. and in fairness he's the sort of player you can admire in the same manner as McManus

    Yeah, our side of the Super 8s just got a little less interesting. They don't rely on him, but any player coming in to replace him is a massive step down.

    But it guarantees a ticket in Newbridge as its capacity is more than the number of season tickets held in both counties. That rule would only be enforceable if there was insufficient capacity.

    Season tickets is not the reason this match has been moved. The CCC are simply using that as an excuse and a poor one at that. I'm a Mayo season ticket holder. They're saying there is a capacity of 8000 ish thousand. Give Mayo the season tickets and maybe a couple of hundred more for family of players and officials. Give the rest to Kildare.

    Did you not notice the outrage this time? Doesn't that show that it's not all about Dublin but when there's an injustice GAA people don't like it. Like it's not anti Dublin to point out the advantages they have.

    Comes in to the Dublin thread to tell us it’s not all about Dublin then manages to get his Dublin advantages dig in. You have to hand it to him not many people would try to derail multiple threads at the same time. I am impressed.

    The Gollybar was the king of ice-pops. It was also extremely racist though. If you tried to bring that out now you'd be up on hate crime charges.
