The Eternal Ticket questions

[The Biff]

1 - B. I know I'm going against the grain here with most others here, but at least the committment of the "Longford club treasurer" is clear for all to see. How do you prove you are the "Lifelong supporter"? On bare facts, the first option should go to the person who is prepared to put him/herself on a committee and actually put in the work throughout the year to run the organisation for the whole year. It should be possible for the Lifelong Supporter to put him/herself into that same role if they really want to show a level of committment that is deserving of a "reward".

2 - B. It's a supporter's own money to spend it as they wish. In recent years, I've found more and more times that I cant go to matches for various reasons, so I'd probably not take up the option myself, but would never begrudge anyone who wants to cough up for their committments.

3 - B. If I hadn't got a ticket, I wouldn't leave home. That's just me, and anyway I earn a hell of lot in a week (don't I wish ! )

4 - A, although I reckon it would be impossible to implement and you'd have to be careful not to make the punishment worse than the "crime". How could you hope to prove that the official did NOT act in good faith? It could only work on the basis of a pattern of repeat offences over time.

5 - B. Certainly, the GAA could not cut these allocations completely if they wish to continue to treat these groups as part of the GAA family. But reduced allocations are certainly in order and let those groups tender for an additional allocation from a shared pot.
