Flynn brands football structure as ‘madness’
The back-to-back Dublin football All Star didn’t hold back in his summary of the Gaelic football landscape which, he claimed, is screwing club players and pointed out that his club, Fingallians, went two months in spring without a competitive game.
For inter-county players though, they face a 12-month fixtures calendar. Flynn said he was actually lucky at certain stages to pick up mid-term injuries as they afforded him a break he wouldn’t normally have got. The All-Ireland winning half-forward was asked if he believed a general disconnect had emerged between GAA top brass and the players themselves.
