Major Boosts to the Irish Economy

:lol: :lol:

You couldn’t make this shit up. The same man who gets up in the middle of the night to watch a mid table club from Birmingham play.

How much was that boat race in Galway worth to the area?

The racing festivals in Punchestown, Galway, Killarney and the likes must make fortunes for local businesses.

The pink pound is a big boost to the economy I hear

I don’t know what that means but I’m sure it’s utterly hilarious.

There aren’t many things that you the meaning of, mate.

A smashing retort. Playing a blinder.

Peter Hook playing in the Academy is worth €359 to local pubs and dope vendors. Well done Hooky.

That’s still more than Wales v Ireland on Friday

It was worth at least €300 of my hard earned cash anyways.

:pint:

Ireland got a €200m boost from the Film & Television industry recently

Are you the biggest event junkie on this site mate? :smiley:

What are you on about mate?
I’ve always been a die hard fan of the fast boats.

There was a piece in the Review section of The Irish Independent on Saturday and it explained that the Queen of England and Barack Obama visits will result in a net boost to the economy of €1bn.

Great to read.

That’s wonderful news. A girl from the O6 had told me last night that the visit of Obama & The Queen had doubled the country’s national debt. Needless to say I was a tad sceptical but this news from Bandage has put my mind at rest

Solheim Cup is worth 30m euro to the Irish evonomy

€1.5 million from the shooting of the Bollywood movie “Ek The Tiger”.

How much did the Kilkenny board earn for use of the jersey?

£10m from the MTV Europe Music Awards which were watched by 1 billion people.

Would your average Estonian have money? I’m thinking the second leg of the play off will not necessarily inject much needed capital into the economy.

I think the 40k plus Irish people in around Landsdowne Road might inject some capital into the Irish economy though
