GAA PRESIDENT JARLATH Burns says they’d be ‘very supportive’ of Páirc Ui Chaoimh stepping into the Euro 2028 void left by Casement Park.
“Obviously we in the GAA would be very supportive of that,” said Burns. “I have to give credit to the Tanaiste Michéal Martin and the Minister for Sport because I only mentioned it to Michéal Martin three days ago. “I can’t speak for Uefa, that’s up to them, but the fact that the Tánaiste and the Minister for Sport came out very quickly in favour of it yesterday is very positive news for us,” he said.
Burns was speaking at this morning’s Hurling Development Committee media briefing in Croke Park where it was confirmed that a new National Head of Hurling will be appointed.
