"Building that cooperation on our island, but also the relationship with Britain post-Brexit: I think it's good that we're seeing that cooperation through sport".On the cost-benefit analysis, he says:"The economic potential is massive - the ratio of at least three or four to one."Whilst Aviva and Croke Park might be where the games are hosted, there's potential across our island and across our regions.

"It's great to see an all-island bid as well with the Northern Ireland Football Association supporting it as well. "We'll have a sense tomorrow about whether there's a second bid coming in, but the early indications are that we could be the sole bid".Main image: Government Chief Whip Jack Chambers arriving at the Convention Centre Dublin for a Dáil session in July 2020.

With a FFG gov, i expect it to be much higher. Remember they're giving us the most expensive hospital in the world.

I can rent pitch

The economic argument has never been proven in any credible way

Can people do simple maths? Good news and people are still disgruntled. What is wrong with people?

Jack chambers the political answer to the question no one ever asked.. 🤡🤡🤡

They could spend another 10M just policing it. Another 10M on repairs after hooligans take cities apart. No thanks little Union Jack

Ireland got it by default! Of course never believe figures given out i.e. Children's Hospital! FAIreland still a Shambles & thanks to them, most League of Ireland stadiums! Hopefully current unelected FFGG government be gone!?! He'd love Ireland with Britain, Union Jack Chambers

Don't believe em

Childrens Hospital type guesswork there I reckon. Will be a multiple of any figure the government come up with now.

Are there breakdowns of individual matches and stadiums? Assuming some matches would be more profitable than others. My guess is that the figures are away with the fairies as it involves associated gain of other businesses and not every match will generate the same spend.
