Limerick secretary rejects Super 8

Limerick GAA secretary Mike O’Riordan is not in favour of the new Super 8 format, calling for the introduction of a two-tier football championship.

In his report to the county convention, O’Riordan says change to the structure of the All-Ireland SFC should ensure that every county has a “realistic chance of competing”, which looks unlikely with the new format.

“There should be a two- tier system in the senior football championship, graded through the national football league, where counties would have a realistic chance of competing,” he writes.
