The famous Omagh GAA soup, recently positively reviewed in a TikTok influencer video, has come under fire by the Cavan Ultras Supporters’ Society (CUSS) after it emerged that Omagh officials have raised the price by 10p, their first increase since 2005.

Cavan, who play Tyrone this Sunday in the Ulster Championship first round in Omagh, have threatened to bring their own mobile soup kitchen to the game and park it outside the main gates, in protest of the 10p hike.

CUSS spokesman Lawrence Reilly fumed:

“Do they think we’re made of money in Cavan? In the past we could have got 2 soups for £3 and took one home for later. Now we’ve to pay an extra 20p for 2 soups. The world has gone mad. I’d rather starve.”

Omagh stewards have warned Cavan supporters not to run onto the pitch when the referee tosses the coin. Last year, in a match against Wicklow, 16 Cavan supporters stormed the field after the coin toss and made off with the coin, his whistle and his stopwatch.
