You be better off like me and just support the G.A.A
At least when Dublin play the players are from Dublin
And when Kerry play the players are from Kerry , and so on.
these players play with pride for their Counties with no financial reward.
Just take next Saturday's match between Dublin and Tyrone , it's a sell out with eighty thousand expected and not one of the players will be paid.
I believe that this was the case many years ago with the English clubs , you had to be from ie. Liverpool to play for that club and London to play for Chelsea.
Something changed over the years and the clubs became a business and so greed set in.
