Dubs ‘can’t play Cork until November or December’

CORK’S inability to play tonight’s NFL game against Dublin will cause a fixture nightmare in the capital, with Metropolitan GAA chiefs claiming they can’t play the game until “November or December”.

Croke Park yesterday agreed to postpone the Rebels’s football and hurling ties this weekend as a resolution to their dispute moved a step closer.

Added a Croke Park spokesperson: “Any further decision in regard to these fixtures will be taken by the Central Competitions Control Committee next Tuesday.”
