Walsh: Change could kill off All-Ireland

Munster Council chairman Sean Walsh has warned the dissolution of the provincial championships would bring about the end of the All-Ireland competitions “within 10 or 15 years” ahead of tonight’s 2013 championship draws.

The Kerry native made the stark prediction in response to the multitude of championship restructuring ideas that have been submitted to the Football Review Committee.

“When you’re asked about provincial structures and you say, ‘they have to stay’ people say, ‘well what would you expect from him, he’s in a provincial council, he’s old school’,” said Walsh.
