Drop the GAA’s deadwood, declares angry Lynch

FORMER GAA PRO Danny Lynch has warned the association is at risk of neglecting their core strengths by continuing to facilitate peripheral activities such as rounders, handball and scór.

Dingle native Lynch, who stepped down from his Croke Park position in 2009, is concerned the GAA is taking its eye “off the ball” by accommodating what he views as minority pursuits, which he insists are “ego trips for a small group of people”.

“The GAA tries to be all things to all people and react to each and every pressure point from where it comes from, no matter how small the source of it is,” said Lynch.
