GAA director general Tom Ryan says Croke Park takes responsibility for the outstanding club championship games not being played last year.

The decision in early October to suspend all GAA activity was based on safety and the GAA's reputation. It meant 11 championships such as the Cork, Donegal, and Waterford football competitions, which had reached the final stage, were not completed and are unlikely to be until this summer.
