McCathy picked up 79 transfers compared to Burns picking up 52.

Shinners aren't transfer friendly.

Bit of as hock, I expected Burns to win this comfortably, he is a very likeable guy and would have been an excellent president.

Jarlath must be gutted he must try again in 2023.

Pretty incredible when you think that a NY delegate is the new GAA President.
Congrats to Larry McCarthy.

Yeah I expected Burns to win too, but I wouldn't have you confidence in how he would perform at all.
I would have expected him to be a pretty safe/don't rock the boat president.
Hopefully McCarthy will go in and go radical from day one.

Back to school on Monday then.
He'll be alright I'd say. Probably on one of the biggest head teacher wage packets in the north.

When can he have another crack at it?

Condensing the County season was one of Larry McCarthy aims, and getting rid of some of the GAA Competitions. Presumably the pre season competition, Mckenna Cup, FBD etc

I played with Larry for years here in the states and I wish him the best. I think he will bring in some good ideas and is a very smart individual. The Gaa is in good hands.
I used to be indecisive but now I'm not too sure.

Larry McCarthy Elected President!

I was hoping for Larry Burns...



Maybe he'll get in next time.

I had hoped Burns would be more radical on funding and fixtures but maybe that's the game you have to play. Disappointed that he didn't get in.
