Up the Dubs" Can't say I wanted dublin to lose or win it didn't matter I just wanted to see a cracker for a match and the two games were crackers kerry in the 1st one had a super chance to stop dublin but didn't use the extra man to their advantage, as for the 2nd dublin came out of the traps faster and didn't hit much wides so a well deserved win, | |||

"This is an amazing group of players. Its only natural Dublin will have spells of utter dominance with the population. But getting hung up on the advantages that they have and the ones the are percieved to have is missing the glory of what we have been able to see live for the last 10 years or so. There are some generational players in that team... My advice is enjoy whats left in them it wont go on forever... " You tell me what's amazing about them.I would be more inclined to say the weaker counties are amazing amateur sports men playing for the love of the sport not the elite that have someone to wipe their ass when they use the toilet. | |||

Man of the match in the drawn game, Jack McCaffrey was working his normal shift in Temple Street hospital up to the Friday before the game. You seem to be suggesting that some county players actually work on the day of big games. That's just a bizarre statement.
The only players I can name who gave up jobs to concenrrate on football were Kerry players and there were three of them but they all retired over the last couple of years.
As it happens, Dublin have not been the biggest spenders on their inter county teams over the last few years. Mayo, Cork and Galway have been the biggest spenders in 2016, 2017, and 2018 respectively with Limerick and Roscommon spending over a million in those years.
Much of the money Dublin get is spent on coaching at underage levels and on their development squads.
What I don't see mentioned is that in either '17 or '18 Cork got more money than Dublin so how come they didn't win the All Ireland that year? | |||

Go on, tell us who it was.. "Has what happened? As for funding Dublin received 16,412,843 euro next cork 1,185,287.That's between 2007 and 2017 now Mick you tell me that Dublin are now getting the funding. | |||

But we all know that the people in the country are getting paid to play. Houses cost next to nothing. They are all living in 4 and 5 bedroom houses with a big field to practice in. If they miss a match its because they are double jobbing. Meanwhile the Dublin lads tripple job just to have a bedroom to sleep in, and they still have to squeeze in training, cause most of them live nowhere near a field, and it can take them an hour or two a day just getting to and from a green field. | |||

Much of the money Dublin get is spent on coaching at underage levels and on their development squads.
What I don't see mentioned is that in either '17 or '18 Cork got more money than Dublin so how come they didn't win the All Ireland that year? Michael your taking with your Dublin cap on you not your home countie.As far as working on match day I know for a fact it happened with one of your forgotten home countie players.But if you lie long enough with the Dogs you get the fleas.
Has it happened during the reign of this Dublin team?
Go on, tell us who it was.. Has what happened? As for funding Dublin received 16,412,843 euro next cork 1,185,287.That's between 2007 and 2017 now Mick you tell me that Dublin are now getting the funding.
Did you read what I wrote at all?
"You wrote a load of bull to try and cover over the fact that Dublin are a professional Gaelic football team. | |||

"Dublin 2018 received 1,303,630 Tyrone 2018 received 119,000.Now tell me it's a level playing field Michael. Wow thats great for Tyrone, Dublins funding is stretched over 3 counties and 1 city. Lol I actually thought you had more cop on how wrong can you be." County Fingal, County South Dublin, County Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, and Dublin City. Dublin funding is stretched over them all? Amazing a small county like Tyrone almost gets as much as a big place like Dublin City. | |||

"A club near me at home bought a field to develop into a football pitch a couple of years ago. It cost them less than 10k. A club near me in Dublin failed to buy a field that they've been trying to get their hands on for the last few years as the price tag is currently 9 million. " Plus the ones owned by the church in Dublin are being sold, schools sports grounds etc and the clubs cant afford to save them. | |||

"I fairness op, your ignorance of the different challenges facing different counties makes this a pointless argument so I'll leave you eh your thoughts and your bitter wine made from sour grapes. I would like to know how come the counties who spent more than Dublin on their intercounty teams didn't win in those years since you see there being a direct correlation between spend and win?

I'm not even sure if any county would make that list at the moment?
Cork and Galway is about it abs neither of them look particularly like winning a football title in the near future.
I'm presuming it's only Cork that have won both in the same year.. Is that correct? | |||

"Never laughed as much in all my life . Professional football team , really ?? You’ve mentioned it so many times Funguy you’re starting to believe it. The majority have full time jobs whilst a small handful are in college . I actually work with one of the Dublin players , and shock horror , he does 40 hours like the rest of us . He doesn’t have his arse wiped for him nor does he have a special lunch delivered . He works hard and is extremely dedicated to his training , more power to him . Although he hasn’t surfaced this week yet lol " Lol keep telling yourself that Dublin aren't professional and you might start to believe it. Because I just give you 16 million reason why they are professional. | |||

Up the Dubs Not alone do they get more funding than the rest of the counties put together they also play every big game in there own back garden.Take for e.g the likes of sligo or leitrim that have to travel up and down the country for training and actually do a days work unlike the professional Dublin team that have someone to clean there ass after going to the toilet.So you can celebrate as you like but at the end of the day the Dubs are the only professional Gaelic football team in Ireland.
