19 years ago the GAA abolished rule 21 with Down GAA at the forefront of this. The PSNI are not having a recruitment drive and what i want to ask posters from the six counties, how would you club react to a senior footballer joining the PSNI? Young cops are still forced to move away which is a shame

I doubt our club could ever live with the shame of having a footballer in its ranks

Well if there is an election in the 26 counties you might embrace the PSNI

If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Great to see all the major political parties behind the PSNI. I obviously see the long game here, to have a fair and just society we need Catholic Nationalist representation in the PSNI. Problem is in a lot of areas of Northern Ireland if you say you're in the PSNI you're likely to be a target and feel very very unsafe. This needs to change.

I think my club would reflect the nationalist population in general, some wouldn't give a hoot, some would be apprehensive whereas some would be 100% opposed. It's kind of like your son coming out as gay, there's nothing wrong with it youd just prefer he didn't

It was good to see MoN and GK attend the PSNI recruitment day. Whilst it remains disappointing that some within policing hark back to the bad old days we need to move on. Nationalist communities and GAA clubs need to back local people when they join the PSNI. It does not help however to have the Police Federation badge proudly championing the RUC badge, it does not help when the Chief Constable pose in Cross with boys armed like they are in Iraq and it does not help when recruits are questioned about their partners hailing from South Armagh. PSNI needs to understand that this is stereotypical profiling, does it mean that no one from SA is welcome because they might be contaminated. So PSNI needs to try harder as do we as nationalists. Change from within.

Nothing to do with GAA clubs.

It was posted today so I thought it was GAA personnel.
