Growing optimism GAA will back radical football championship proposal

There is growing optimism that the GAA is prepared to back one of the revolutionary football championship options later this year.

The association’s fixtures review committee have put forward three proposals for discussion with a mind to them being voted on at Special Congress in April or May. One pertains to retaining the two-tier structure for 2020 while condensing its scheduling and commencing the provincial championships later in May so that April is retained for clubs exclusively.
