GAA president Aogán Farrell says Sky debate is finished

Discontent about the exclusive elements of the GAA’s broadcasting agreement with Sky Sports continues to surface but the debate about it ended at last year’s Congress as far as president Aogán Farrell is concerned.

Michael Duignan’s comments on The Sunday Game the weekend before last struck a chord with several supporters and has reignited a conversation about the organisation’s relationship with the pay-per-view company.

Counties such as Clare and Dublin have voiced their fears about live championship games not being available free-to-air, but Farrell is adamant the time for taking has come and gone since Congress delegates shot down a Dublin motion last year.
