Skelly feels ‘Blue Wave’ motion will fail
The aim was included in Dublin’s ‘Blue Wave’ strategic report and chairman Andy Kettle reiterated the board’s desire to push it through earlier this week. Kettle said the county would be forwarding motions to Congress next year calling for provincial status on those very grounds having made it clear late last year that a county with one-fifth of the island’s population could not be treated as just one among 32 units.
The county chairman claimed they would shortly begin talks with the Leinster Council about obtaining a regular position on Coiste Bainisti while admitting that they have yet to lobby GAA officials and Skelly, for one, would appear to need some convincing.
