Kelly lauds Arklow club for novel Croker proposal

Sean Kelly yesterday commended the Arklow club for their groundbreaking approach in looking for a solution to the problem of opening up Croke Park.

The club’s proposal, which goes before the Wicklow county convention this weekend, proposes that the Government be allowed to lease the Stadium from the GAA for five events a year.

Rule 42 promises to be a topic of some debate in many conventions across the country this weekend, and although Kelly said it would be undesirable for him to opine on the proposal, he believed Arklow deserved praise for their suggestion.
