CPA chairman: ‘Sometimes you have to slaughter a few sacred cows’

Duffy’s proposals to end replays, bring forward the All-Ireland finals, tighten up the duration of the inter-county season and introduce a calendar year season are all endorsed by the CPA.
However, Duffy’s fellow Monaghan man and CPA secretary Declan Brennan says the recommendation to add more games in August for the last eight teams in the All-Ireland SFC is a financial exercise. It’s also Brennan’s belief that the senior finals should be played on the August Bank Holiday weekend “at least”.
