Like that happened.
That's sort of like,
it passed through and yes I'm sure there may be locally in those areas there might be in some discussions but in general I know it needed approval from Congress but again it got approval so for me I find it harder to sort of to maybe get in the high horse about that stuff when you see well actually at a practical level that's something that should have been happening years ago when we have chronic issues with facilities in this country the flip side is yeah I mean it is it is
there's something next level about I mean those those games that you referenced like Stephen Ireland that was helping out in a time of need like similar to these League of Ireland arrangements this year whereas the first ever club game like Manchester United Leeds is just purely a cash grab you know it's a meaningless it's a meaningless game it is just purely we have the venue it's
It's like, it is a bit like a gig.
You know, it is.
It's just no different.
Oh, no.
Yeah, I don't particularly.
But I'm not.
Maybe Ronan is speaking to maybe are there sort of grassroots GA people who would see that differently?
Maybe.
you know like he's talking about now I don't think that they'll ever get a Champions League final because of the criteria and stuff and also there would be issues with like your stadium being closed off at a time of the year where all of a sudden you're moving loads of games to accommodate this and you know you have your county maybe having a game elsewhere that should be in Croke Park but then you're in a little bit more delicate ground like they're doing this and it's funny like they're doing all these gigs in August when people would prefer their All-Ireland finals to be taking place The split
Just a live InfoWars podcast or something in Croke Park.
You know, where do you draw the line?
I mean this is it they're just they have a facility and as Ronan says they are utilising it there have been forums I presume where people can raise their opposition to this the next congress people could try and bring a motion couldn't they to stop some of these events but I don't think that's going to happen
Oh, that's lovely.
No.
That's really nice for people now.
But I do get the sense of it crept up a bit.
