Ulster Council chief backs cuts to ‘ridiculous’ TV coverage

ULSTER COUNCIL president Aodhan Ó Fearghaill applauded the decision to cut 10 live TV games from the schedule this year after what he described as the “ridiculous” level of coverage afford to the championships last year.

While 40 games will still be broadcast in the coming months, starting with Sunday’s Donegal v Antrim Ulster Championship clash in Ballybofey, Ó Fearghaill was happy with the reduction.

“It is right to have less games,” said Ó Fearghaill.
