Limerick officials blast GAA and GPA chiefs

LIMERICK GAA chiefs have slammed the GAA and GPA for failing to help in resolving the hurling standoff in the county with one official claiming the Players’ Association ‘have held up progress and undermined the negotiations.’

Though the majority of the 2009 senior squad steadfastly refuse to play under manager Justin McCarthy, both national associations refused to become involved in any mediation.

And officials and delegates at this week’s county board meeting in Claughan were united in their displeasure at the lack of action from the capital on the matter.
