Never again will a Cork team be forced out of Páirc Uí Chaoimh at championship-time because of a concert, Cork GAA chairman Marc Sheehan has confirmed.

At tonight's Cork County Board meeting, Sheehan said the recent Ed Sheeran gigs marked the last time a concert would take priority over a home championship fixture belonging to the Cork senior hurlers or footballers.
