Amazing how money changes peoples views!

Is a certain sports organisation is feeling the cold wind of recession following the exit of soccer and rugby? Word in the sporting community is that they've been going around just about every major sports organisation in world trying to drum up business. I've come across a couple of examples myself. I'm aware of one where they invited one organisation to Dublin to look at Croke Park and the organisation said "what's that shiny new stadium we saw on the other side of town?" - went to look at Aviva and decided that if they ever came to Dublin, they'd prefer Aviva. They didnt even know Aviva existed before the visit.
 
There was a lot of complaining recently at the last Co. Derry home game, as the tickets were £25 I think.

Looks like that certain organisation are already missing the millions they were getting from football and rugby, and are now trying to claw it back from other sources.
