Liam Griffin says county boards are now obliged to implement the split season appropriately after the Club Players Association (CPA) dissolved following the adoption of it at last Saturday’s Annual Congress.

As expected, after being set up in late 2016, the CPA unanimously decided to wind up at an emergency general meeting on Monday night after helping to achieve their objective of an meaningful club period for fixtures.
