People have been hunting for a seat at Croke Park since this morning.
Offaly County Board have issued an update as fans continue to voice frustration about the ticketing process for the All-Ireland U-20 Football Final on social media.
The Faithful say they've relayed the concerns of supporters to the GAA who are liasing with Ticketmaster to try and alleviate the problem.
24,000 tickets for the game went on general sale this morning but people say they've been left in virtual queues over a number of hours without success.
Their statement in full says:
Offaly GAA have received many complaints both publicly and privately from supporters who have been unable to purchase tickets for the All-Ireland Under 20 Football Championship final on Sunday.
We wish to assure you that Offaly GAA has been in contact with the GAA about this problem and they are are, in turn, liaising with Ticketmaster and passing on our frustration. Unfortunately, it is completely out of the control of Offaly GAA County Board.
5hours 30 minutes in a queue only to be thrown out. Absolutely scandalous behaviour from @TicketmasterIre , totally not fit for purpose.
