Future of Murphy Cup secure, says Kelly

GAA President Sean Kelly is adamant that the future of the controversial Tommy Murphy Cup is secure.

Mr Kelly was responding to questions about the difficulties being encountered by some counties in fulfilling fixtures in the Cup, one of the new competitions he spearheaded after arriving in office two years ago.

Carlow withdrew from this year's competition, as did Tipperary last year. Wexford County Board are angered that their domestic campaign is in chaos due to a fixture for the Model men this weekend.
