GAA felt 'bullied' into hosting Liam Miller Tribute Game at Páirc Uí Chaoimh

GAA director general Tom Ryan has claimed the organisation’s authorities felt they were “bullied” into hosting the Liam Miller Tribute Game in Páirc Uí Chaoimh last summer.

Careful to point out that everything to the Miller family was “secondary” and the GAA would likely have green-lighted the soccer match on their own steam had they been given the chance, Ryan hit out at the pressure that was put on the GAA to bend their own rules so that the game could be moved from the original Turners’ Cross venue last September.
