Push to name Páirc Uí Chaoimh stand after Jack Lynch

A debate has opened up over who should be honoured by having stands named after them at the €70m revamped Pairc Ui Chaoimh.

Cork County Council has formally voted to ask the GAA to name one of them after late taoiseach Jack Lynch, who won five All-Ireland medals.

However, a further motion, which is to be tabled in County Hall in a fortnight’s time will ask that the public be allowed to decide on who should have stands named after them.
