Tom McGlinchey: Time for a two-tier championship

Waterford boss Tom McGlinchey has called on GAA top-brass to put weaker counties out of their misery and introduce a two-tier football championship structure.

Waterford were defeated by 22 points yesterday while Longford lost to Dublin in Croke Park by 27 points, and McGlinchey says struggling counties want to play in a competition where they have a realistic chance of success, or at the very least can be competitive.

“There is only one thing we can do for 2015: get back together on Wednesday night and prepare for the qualifiers. That is the competition you are in. Long-term, I don’t know [where we go],” he remarked.
