GPA backs GAA on barrier decision

The Gaelic Players Association (GPA) has given its full support to the decision taken by the GAA's Central Council last weekend to erect a 2.8 metre barrier at the Dineen Terrace (Hill 16) end of Croke Park, in a bid to end pitch invasions.

GPA spokesman Sean Potts says that it is imperative that player safety is taken into account by supporters, and that this is the correct move going forward.
