GAA: No soccer or rugby in Croke Park beyond 2008

The GAA today agreed to allow soccer and rugby matches to be played at Croke Park in 2008, but rejected the possibility of hosting non-Gaelic games beyond that point.

It was agreed at a Central Council meeting in Croke Park that should the Lansdowne Road redevelopment project become unviable, the 2005 Congress decision on the use of Croke Park is no longer applicable post-2008.
