Colm Collins calls for trial abolition of provincials

Clare’s Colm Collins has lashed GAA proposals to introduce an All-Ireland B football competition and called for the abolition of the provincial championships on a trial basis.

Collins is furious at the GAA’s proposals that teams competing in Division 4 next year will be excluded from the All-Ireland SFC qualifiers — and play in a B championship instead.

“I don’t think that’s going to go through, they may as well decide that they’re going to pay every player €100,000.
