Furious Fogarty blasts moves to professionalism

FORMER Presidential candidate Seán Fogarty has warned the GAA is hurtling towards professionalism.

The Tipperary native has also questioned why Association President Christy Cooney is being paid while fulfilling the prestigious role, insisting the Cork native should be doing the job on a voluntary basis.

In a hard-hitting reaction to the discussion paper on payments to managers, released by Croke Park on Tuesday, Fogarty is warning of a potential doomsday scenario for the GAA if inter-county bosses are paid.
