Kelly happy Roscommon are back on right track

GAA President Sean Kelly yesterday said he was happy that “any wrongdoings” in the Roscommon GAA crisis have “been corrected” — and he believes the county will “rally around” to take itself out of its €1.4m mire.

Mr Kelly's comments came after it emerged over €60,000 was transferred from Roscommon GAA finances to a company associated with a former chairman of the board Stephen Banahan. The money has since been repaid to the board, whose officers have been cited for "gross negligence."

The details of the cash transfers to money transfers were revealed in an audit into Roscommon's cash crisis the Croke Park audit showed that €60,069 was paid to BLSB Ltd, and associated accounts, between September 2004 and March 2005.
