If your mother gives you fifty pence and sends you down to the shop for a pounds worth of goods you canā€™t get a pounds worth of goods can you?

The camogie crowd will soak all that up when theyā€™re integrated.
Plenty of improvement needed thereā€¦

Very hard for other counties to compete with the financial muscles being flexed by The Big House. Iā€™d love to know how these figures compare to Waterford operating off a shoestring budget cc @ChairmanDan

Ballygunner probably spend more than Waterford Iā€™d imagine.

Maybe Waterford need a new business model? Player hubris may also need to be checked and a few lads should get more involved on the fundraising frontā€¦ The landscape has moved but little counties like Waterford, Tipp and to a lesser degree Cork, donā€™t want to move with the timesā€¦Has any county done 3 in a row and still showed profit prior to Limerick?

What those looking at us with envy donā€™t realise is JPs sponsorship is on a par with most counties and significantly behind behemoths such as Dublin and Kerry, as @Thomas_Brady rightly points out other counties need to get their funding models in place, the likes of the Dow going off to NY fundraising etc, he has done his county some service.

The Dow should win Limerick person of the year this year without much contest. Tho heā€™s gone, he still epitomises everything great about the current squadā€¦ The greater good comes first.

Limerick has always been a socialist county, see the great Limerick Soviet fir exampleā€¦ At our heart is brotherhood, community and the greater good of all.

Thatā€™s Limerick.

Not sure if thereā€™s even any billionaires in Waterford to begin with. Youā€™re at nothing these days without a billionaire bankrolling operations.

Your heart would go out to Waterfordā€¦

The smaller counties like Tipp could do with more of their supporters boosting their own gate receipts instead of heading up to Dublin to watch Limerick and take photos of Henry Shefflin, imo.

The real eye opener will be the Clare figures and subsequent celebration costs for drawing with Limerick twice

Whatever happened to the plan to sell Waterford to the Saudis?

Chairman is going to try convince him come on board from August onwards, or earlier if the Minors donā€™t progress past Munster. James Hall could manage trainings through the County League in the earlier part of the year while Evan is away with minors. Iā€™m hoping heā€™ll have a sense of unfinished business with the lads. Heā€™s a 100% hurling man, money was very much a secondary thought with him.
