O’Neill has Duffy backing

GAA president Liam O’Neill has received support from director general Páraic Duffy in revising how Croke Park fund counties.

In the wake of Dublin’s lucrative sponsorship deal with AIG last October, O’Neill spoke of a more even spread of money being distributed across the country.

Duffy said big counties should be commended for “their drive and initiative”, but voiced concern for smaller ones.
