Just when the Country needs to be forward-thinking and banish a past of negative thinking and historic bitterness, we can look forward, as tonight's Evening Echo puts it," to the Coronation as President of the GAA," of a man who is on record as being totally opposed to the alteration of Rule 42, allowing rugby and soccer to be played in Croke Park. With his record he will no doubt have no problem in filling the shoes of another narrowminded President ...Con Murphy.
I wonder if Christy feels that we should return the circa €20m income gained by the Association, as well as the public goodwill that went with the gesture ?
