GPA slam Tipp board for fixture pile up

The Gaelic Players Association have hit out at the Tipperary County Board for pencilling in the controversial club fixture that led to the county footballers pulling out of the championship.

The Tipperary players pulled out of tomorrow's qualifier tie against Fermanagh in solidarity with boss Andy Shorthall who was aghast that two of his players were forced to play in a club hurling game on Wednesday.
