Tom Ryan worried by the way ‘Croke Park’ is perceived

When Tom Ryan was unveiled as the GAA’s new Director General last April, a 15-minute interview entitled ‘Getting to know Tom Ryan’ was published on the Association’s website.

We learned from it that the former Director of Finance, a Carlow man, is an accountant by trade who lives in Terenure with his wife Mairead, a big Limerick fan, and their three children. He is a long-time member and volunteer at the Faughs club in Dublin, where two of his boys play.
