Kelly rubbishes rumours of hurling boss role

GAA President Sean Kelly yesterday dismissed a report linking him to the proposed Director of Hurling role as “pure speculation”.

He said he would be making no other comment on the matter.

“I said at the Christy Ring and Nicky Rackard Champion 15 (Allstars) on Saturday night that it had been determined after the Hurling Development Committee (HDC) meeting that day that we would be going ahead with the appointment of a Hurling Director.”
