The grandson of the man after whom Cork’s Páirc Uí Chaoimh GAA stadium is named said he was “deeply shocked and saddened” by the proposal to drop his name under a new naming rights deal.

Padraig Ó Caoimh's grandson, Dónal, said he learned about the proposal through the media after the Irish Examiner first reported it on Monday.
