Counties line up for Rule 42 decisions

GAA chiefs will have a strong indication of grass-root views on the opening of Croke Park next week after a raft of counties vote on Rule 42 at local level.

Counties line up for Rule 42 decisions

The campaign to open up headquarters to other sports gained a timely boost this week with an emphatic show of support from Tipperary County Board. However, many counties have yet to hold a meeting on the motions because they’re awaiting the decisions of their clubs on the issue.

However, up to eight more counties are expected to debate the issue next week, with key counties like Kilkenny, Limerick and Cork waiting until the following week - the week of Congress. Counties can choose to decide whether Central Council should have the power to decide on the opening of Croke Park, whether it be for a finite period of time or not, to coincide with the redevelopment of Lansdowne Road.
