Casement aside, what is GAA HQ doing to promote GAA in Ireland's second city?

Thought Ryan Feeney was to sort the whole thing out?? 

He's at QUB now. Seems to be a PR puff merchant.

One of the most puffed up self-promoters of our age...

Did you see the wee prat and his wife presenting flowers to the Pope on TV, then telling Miriam O'Callaghan that Francie asked them to pray for him?
Just recently they got the front cover of the Irish News for their wedding, with the McAleeses, PSNI head and other worthies present. Word on the street is that apology cards were read out from Bertie Ahern, Leo Varadkar and Hilary Clinton. Seriously. Like who invites Varadkar and Clinton to their wedding?

Thanks to Hardstation for reminding us of Feeney's central role in the Casement fiasco. How has this pathetic social climber retained credibility? God help Queen's...

Don't personalise it. Remember there was many people who wanted the stadium built and there were many people who didn't want the stadium built. The people who didn't want the stadium built have won... simple as.

Wasn't me who brought him up. I'd rather forget about the part he played in this.

Quidnunc - a man of your education should be above this type of attack. As hardstation says he didn't bring him into it, you did sir, so sounds like you have a axe to grind on someone who done his job under the management of the  Ulster council gaa which included some great leaders of the Gaa and lifelong servants  whom I'm sure you knew firsthand and claim to have respect for. As for the despicable quips on the wedding,  people send best wishes at weddings whether invited or not. Terrible personal attack.

Anyone know why he is no longer working for Ulster GAA?

Id imagine a much better job opportunity.  Moved on to a new challenge about 3 years ago like many people do in life. In any organisation strategy comes from the top..!i don't care who delivers it but this needs to happen. and the top of Ulster gaa needs to sit down with the top of Antrim Gaa and come up with something to help Antrim county teams have a ground for the next 3 years. A few hundred k would tidy it up. Probably still be a better ground than Navan. I would have no doubt that Everyone wants that to be resolved. Resolve it now.

I wouldn't expect a Tyrone man to appreciate the character of PT.

Who were they, the health and safety expert whose report was being ignored?

We love going there and tayto park as well. There's a lot more to Meath than football in my eyes..

Surely as we are talking about it this week and not 4 years ago, It is more important to get Antrim playing on it next Spring. Will stormont  be back pre brexit - highly unlikely. Can something be done in the meantime, some are saying yes. Let's do what we can do with all currently involved sides and stop chasing the past.
