Players should have a voice on the Council, says Kelly
Mr Kelly, responding to comments made by GPA chief executive Dessie Farrell at their weekend agm, said it was desirable that inter-county players particularly current players should have a voice on the Council to air their views on matters of mutual concern.
With Farrell doubting that the GAA would "run with the idea of a GPA seat", the President said that it would not be regarded as such merely a player representation on the Council. Mr Kelly also expressed surprise at reports that some counties were not implementing policy on player welfare as stipulated by the Central Council.
