Roughly €1k per team last I heard.

A lot of that is “modern society”, health and safety and over insurance - yellow warnings for wind etc.

Application by verbal approach only.

Certainly makes clubs stop and think before entering say a third adult team in Junior B, the days of the wellie wearing last minute corner forward are numbered.

Nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more!!!

Registration fees are one thing but the money being paid over for Insurance is the biggest fucking con job going.

Our own clubs insurance rose hugely due to cruiciate operations which are very expensive.

Money going for GPA in a so called amateur organisation is some shit. Their salaries is the worst obviously but the grants are hardly all just.

Fermanagh hurlers get a GPA grant FFS.

Mullach_Ide · January 4, 2018, 11:33pm

Fair few bogus claims going in as well.

Tbh I have heard of none.

What I have seen is lads with concussions & bad neck injuries basically being told to fuck off & look after themselves.
You needs to be out of work of X amount of time to see a payout. Insurance won’t cover rehab or physio in most cases.

It would be better & more prudent to see the GAA trying to get members better rates for Health Insurance as what’s currently being paid for is a complete fucking rip off.

Wouldn’t have thought there were many cruciate injuries in cycling.

Watch your fucking step or I’ll fuck you up and your jukebox.

Jared · January 5, 2018, 12:20am

It’s not the real Enda Kenny, dipshit.

Juhniallio · January 5, 2018, 7:59am

That’s what you think fella. We have all manner of power brokers here. And sad cunts like yourself.

Little_Lord_Fauntleroy · January 5, 2018, 8:33am

@Jared giving @Juhniallio a torrid time here

Juhniallio · January 5, 2018, 8:34am

Good narrative @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy. it’s important you keep busy with @Nembo_Kid gone on a rebrand sabbatical.

flattythehurdler · January 5, 2018, 12:42pm

Is he not back already?
