We’re financially independent. We don’t give a fuck.

Ewan taking more analysis from strangers on the Internet to prove a point
Once again ignoring the millions paid to provincial councils who fund the GPOs in the respective counties which is not included in data above.

You live in some high rise in Poland mate,you don’t count.

@Massey

They didn’t cause they didn’t know about it but like I say even the limerick hurling snobs know now.Yhe jigs up for the dubs.

I kniw about it for years and dont give a shit. If they pumped that money in to Cork for the last 10 years do you think we would have spent it on GDAs?? Would we fuck

What has the GPO to do with it? Is there another uprising planned?

[Gman]

As responded to you previously, the “millions” split over each county (average €227 per county) would still be less per county than the special Dublin coaching project from leinster council (€239) which also isn’t included in those figures, so would still leave the graph being accurate

@Gman

whilst this is somewhat true, it also doesnt take into account what Dublin also gets from the Leinster council.

Have a look at page 22 of the PDF there.

you have €2.5m of GPO expenditure which isnt broken down into counties. Divided by 11 counties, that would mean each county getting €227k each. That figure alone is vastly incorrect, as for example in Wexford, who part share costs on their GPOs who are on a base salary of €34k, their total cost would be approx €190k for the 5 full time GPOs (including Wexfords own payments to this fund). And other counties have less than Wexford, so that expenditure must include payments to Dublin club coaching officers.

Another point is the nice tidy sum of €239k for the “Dublin coaching project”. Which is still more than the above figure even if you do divide by 11 counties only. So adding in the “missing” Leinster council money does not balance out the figures and actually makes the gap bigger.

Dublin GAA get plenty of additional money from Leinster council, which added to their main central council funding will still easily dwarf every other county.

On a serious note, its not Dublins issue money is thrown at them. They have huge sponsorship and revenue building avenues so easy to make money. They generate money on gate returns and merchandise. They have a massive population. All natural factors that help them. They are using the money wisely and making the absolute most of it (for example see Offaly pissing away their Hurling Development Fund money). They are doing what they can with the advantages at their disposal. Its not up to them to balance the playing field.

On a less serious note, fucking jackeen bastards getting everything handed to them. The cunts.

Head shot.

@dodgy_keeper

This Dublin team is so good they don’t need any other advantages like that.

Ah the advantages didn’t go astray when they were coming up the age groups I’m sure

@alf_stewart

Shur they had to, they weren’t being handed it

[Massey]

Dublin are under-represented compared to the rest of Leinster in terms of Games Promotion Officers.

@tallback

system like our national taxation where Dublin generate lots of cash and “redistribute” it out

Does the luas make many trips to west kerry? Because people who live there paid taxes towards it

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

Did they?

I think taxes flow out of dublin to the wastelands of the west

[maroonandwhite]

Because US multinationals are based there due to a government policy of centralisation? Take foreign workers and companies and country folk like me whod rather our taxes went to our home councils out of it and whats the average dublin contribution

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

So your initial point is wrong?

[maroonandwhite]

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy

us wrong

Freudian slip

[gilgamboa]

We will charge ye 50 euro a gallon for the water we send up to ye that will soften yer cough

Galway and the west of Ireland having precisely no US multinationals, of course.

Oh wait…
