All the other counties have finally caught up
with them by having to invest massively themselves it’s taken 7 years to do so"It’s nothing to do with the other countries spending money, Dublin had an unbelievable crop of young players who were fantastic for 8-9 years then they all hit the wrong side of 30 No team can lose 40 All Ireland’s and 6 players of the year from a panel and not be weaker | |||

"Absolute nonsense. They had their time. It was great. Nothing to do with Money. The great Kerry side were just great. Nothing to do with Money. The hatred for Dublin outside Dublin is hilarious." Dublin got millions more than other counties with as many or more clubs in it,all for coaching and development over the last decade or more. Are you saying that had no effect? | |||

"Well it has happened and I doubt there is too many outside of Dublin sad to see it. For years they had an unfair advantage with the monies pumped into the county. Their usual very vocal supporters have gone to ground too" Like everything in life , the quality that they once had is not there atm but ..but ..let's not get to carried away Dublin may have won 6 in row but we're so so lucky in a few of them ..but they still got over the line . | |||

Dream on, it’s well documented how the GAA over funded Dublin at the expense of the rest of the country. But look don’t pay attention to the facts | |||

"Dublin put a plan forward to the GAA to request funds from the gaa to help with coaching and facilities for clubs in over populated areas. Gaa won't just give you millions to do whatever you want with. Maybe research who the biggest spenders on inter County football panels are. Mayo and kerry spend more on their senior men's teams than Dublin spend on their senior men's and womens teams in hurling and football combined, and that's with 3 of the 4 panels competing through provincial and at all ireland stage. I don't see Mayo or Kerry or Tyrone spending money on their hurlers or camogie players We've no massive centre of excellence like kerry do that they spent €8m or Tyrone or other counties who spend their money that way. Go train on a winters night in Inisfails. If your really interested in learning why Dublin were so successful and how they got their money pick up a copy of Bernard Brogan book. You'll learn a lot about Dublin Gaa. " The GAA made a huge push in the early 90's as Dublin GAA was falling behind, as the capital and largest population, they had to invest and rectify. It was extremely successful. But people don't understand how much work and organisation it takes to run clubs. Dublin clubs are huge and exceptionally well run! | |||

Run like a business, not a business. Why is every sporting body not paying taxes?..dont be a lug! A lot of the minority sports in this country are associated with the Olympic Council and their ilk.

Mmmm how come Dublin are losing every game , has there been no funding given to Dublin since 2020. Just utter bullshit . Turn your jealousy of not being from the capital of Ireland into supporting your own county amd stop being so bloody hateful towards what is simply a team that made history and is now let’s face it older and not playing as well as others . I would hate to be in a relationship with you, you must really bore everyone off with your spite . Toxic stuff .

"A lot of interesting comments no doubt , everyone will have their opinions but some facts are facts , one particular club in Dublin has more u12's registered than the whole of Leitrim,the Dubs won 6 in a row on the field regardless of what went on behind the scenes , yes they got out the gap in some of them by the skin of their teeth but they still got out the gap , in 1968..yes that's 1968...a person left his full time position with the GAA in Croke Park and that same person was handed £25,000 as he left , you will never fully know what each and everyone is paid in Croke Park , they are professionals running an Amature organisation, but no one can tell me that it's not financially driven ,an Amature game where everyone gets paid except the players, look at what you pay going into a club game , once the players get injured or are put on the scrapheap no one gives a rat's ass about them, a certain inter county player who had helped put a huge load of money into the GAA coffers over the years and had retired had to pay going into see his county play.The term you're only as good as your last game certainly rings true there . Some good points there… but have you ever been to Leitrim? That fact was poor
Maybe , but a fact non the less .
Very true… but picking on lovely Leitrim
I had no choice tbh ..it's only the truth . "Sometimes needs must man  | |||

Now bear in mind how many intercounty teams that the county board is funding at a competitive level. Mayo - 1,699,409 Cork - 1,567,227 Kerry - 1,387,154 Tipperary - 1,770,000 Dublin - 1,457,841 - bear in mind that's 4 intercounty teams (mens and womens) competing to all ireland competition stage which none of the above counties can also claim. If you really want to know the answer just Google inter County spending, it's not difficult. That's from the Irish examiner BTW. | |||

" Dublin GAA have received €15, 427, 560 more than any other county in coaching and games development grants over the last decade. Figures compiled by journalist Sean McGoldrick show that from 2007 to 2017, Dublin received €16, 612, 847 in coaching and games development grants while the next highest garnering county, Cork, received just €1, 185, 287 over the same period. | |||

"The campaign to change how Croke Park allocate their coaching and games development budget is gathering momentum. Under the current model Dublin has received an average of €1.48m a year since 2007 whereas Cork, the next best funded county, has received €186,561 per annum. Thirty GAA clubs across 20 different counties have confirmed that they will table a motion at their annual general meetings later this year aimed at equalising the distribution of the multi million euro coaching budget. Under the new plan the allocation of coaching funds would be based on membership levels. It would result in an estimated reduction of €2.2m in funding for Dublin GAA over the next five years according to former Westmeath footballer John Connellan, who is leading the campaign for change." And as I said above Dublin put forward plans and framework of what they planned do with grants requested from the GAA for grassroots level. Something no other County board has been bothered to do properly, they just put the hand out. They are not going to be just given money without a plan. You also fail to mention Dublin has 1 million more of a population. No mention of the 8 million kerry spent on a centre of excellence or the 3.1 million spent on the connaught centre of excellence in Mayo? Your cherry picking info to suit your bitterness against Dublin. | |||

How much did the “Dublin” centre of excellence cost ? I can imagine too many clubs from skibberean will get a chance to play in it. Just because they put together a plan doesn’t give them the right to financially doping football and ruin it for ten years. There will always be a tint to Dublins success due to the money pumped in to the county in that period, it is no coincidence Dublin don't train or play at the national games development centre lol they train in Inisfails and DCU. BTW that's a fancy looking facility on the way in to Trim in meath? Wonder how much was spent on that? I've never heard additional coaches and facilities for nursery level in Gaa clubs called financial doping... Wonder how those 4 and 5 year old spurred the seniors to 6 in a row? There'll never be a tint! Best football team in history!! Don't worry I'm sure you won't be complaining in 10 years time when meath are competitive from all the Dublin peoples kids playing in the likes of Colmcilles in Bettystown, I'm sure you won't have a problem with those Dubs
I’m not from Meath
Denial is not a river in Meath
If you’re unsure about the unfair financial funding Dublin received Google Dublin GAA funding, there’s countless articles detailing it.
And I doubt you'll tell us what County your from lol
Yeah they've received huge funding for underage and clubs but as I've already pointed out we still don't spend as much on inter County panels as other counties so the funding isn't going to the seniors?
From Cavan.. only county to win an All Ireland outside of Ireland "No wonder your upset over someone else getting money | |||

"The campaign to change how Croke Park allocate their coaching and games development budget is gathering momentum. Under the current model Dublin has received an average of €1.48m a year since 2007 whereas Cork, the next best funded county, has received €186,561 per annum. Thirty GAA clubs across 20 different counties have confirmed that they will table a motion at their annual general meetings later this year aimed at equalising the distribution of the multi million euro coaching budget. Under the new plan the allocation of coaching funds would be based on membership levels. It would result in an estimated reduction of €2.2m in funding for Dublin GAA over the next five years according to former Westmeath footballer John Connellan, who is leading the campaign for change. And as I said above Dublin put forward plans and framework of what they planned do with grants requested from the GAA for grassroots level. Something no other County board has been bothered to do properly, they just put the hand out. They are not going to be just given money without a plan. You also fail to mention Dublin has 1 million more of a population. No mention of the 8 million kerry spent on a centre of excellence or the 3.1 million spent on the connaught centre of excellence in Mayo?
