Brennan: GPA ‘certain’ to get official recognition very soon

OFFICIAL recognition of the Gaelic Players’ Association is a certainty in the near future, GAA President Nickey Brennan confirmed last night.

At this stage, it’s just a question of when it happens, he told delegates at last night’s Leinster Convention in Kinnegad, saying it was always one of his aims to see negotiations reach a successful conclusion before he finishes his term.

“A lot of discussions have taken place recently and they are at a delicate stage, so I don’t intend going into them tonight,” said Brennan.
