Long-serving Rock tipped to succeed Banahan at crisis-hit Roscommon

ROSCOMMON’S GAA delegates will get a chance to air their views about the county’s €1.5m financial crisis at an extraordinary general meeting of the board on July 21.

This follows confirmation that county chairman Stephen Banahan has stepped down from his post, after weeks of speculation that he would be departing.

Mr Banahan has been at the centre of many of the controversies that have dogged Roscommon in recent years, coming to a head this year with the present mess.
