Tipp board urged to slash costs as €250,000 loss hits home

Former Munster Council chairman Con Hogan has warned Tipperary GAA officials they must be “cold and ruthless” in their proposed cost-cutting measures in 2013, as one Premier County delegate warned of potential “financial ruin” at this week’s convention.

Tipperary’s 2012 financial statement revealed a massive €246,939 loss for the year and follows a deficit of almost €220,000 revealed a year previously.

In the last four years, Premier County top brass have revealed losses of over €650,000.
