No boycott but no end to GPA row

THERE will be no boycott of RTÉ by GPA players at this weekend’s championship games, but the Club Energise row has been far from resolved, according to GPA chief executive Dessie Farrell.

Both parties were due to meet this week to resolve the product placement row, which surfaced after Armagh star Ronan Clarke was seen slugging out of a bottle three times during a live interview following the Fermanagh game.

The row stems from the GAA’s agreement with Coca-Cola, whose products include Lucozade Sport and Powerade - competitors to Club Energise.
