Trevor Giles: The provinces have had their day - GAA should move on

Giles said he can see a day when the provincial competitions are no longer part of the football championship fabric

Meath legend Trevor Giles is in favour of the provincial football championships being consigned to the scrapheap.

While the two-time All-Ireland winner has not studied in any great detail the two proposals to reform the All-Ireland SFC that will go before Special Congress next month, he’ll not object to any recommendation that advocates a move away from the province-based structure.
