I thought it was very good although there was nothing new in it for me personally.

He struggled when the Premier Sports issue was put to him but he was quite firm in his point about County Boards managing themselves rather than Croke Park micro-managing them.

He also pointed out that the intercounty season is effectively only about five months long, which Molloy was telling him he should be moving towards.

So he was firm on being incredibly soft. Lol.

I see he's sticking rigidly to no splitting Dublin in his annual report. >:(
Also stealing my idea on tiered football All Irelands.
He reckons the new football Championship with its "Super 8" is just a temporary thing pending real changes.

You think Croke Park should micro manage every county?

God only knows.

We most definitely do not need provincial councils. If they didn't already exist nobody would ever conceive them.

definitely a pooled sponsorship/partnership deal for all counties should be examined

eg if a county gets a sponsor for 200,000 25% goes into a central pool to support counties with smaller population and smaller club base
all counties could wear the same sponsor on their sleeves or back for an agreed fee
