Quinn: end the ban on supporters coming onto Croker pitch

THE GAA should reconsider the ban on supporters being allowed onto the Croke Park pitch after All-Ireland finals, according to Kilkenny secretary Ned Quinn.

The Mooncoin official, who presents his report to annual convention tonight, also had strong words for the “high vis jacket brigade who are a source of much irritation to players, team officials and supporters alike.”

Quinn says post match pitch celebrations are one of the great aspects of the GAA and every effort should be made to allow fans to continue the tradition and swarm the field after the final whistle.
