Critics of Sky deal not seeing the full picture

What’s all the fuss about over this Sky contract? Are people for real? Surely if you’re selling something – and that’s what the GAA were doing here with their broadcasting rights – you want the best deal you can.

The world is getting smaller, things are changing. You need people to come in and drive things on.

Cast your mind back to when the GAA did its first deal to do live televised games – people were up in arms claiming it would destroy the Association.
