The GAA paid £3 million to buy out Go Fire.

Maybe he is looking at it to recoup some of that.

I don't know.

But it goes back to then, of course, to the split season.

And I don't want to go down that road again.

You cannot, you cannot play all these matches at a weekend and expect them to be covered.

you know, free-tier.

It just cannot do it.

Now, why our best GAA station by a mile, and let's put this, is TGA Carr, that has a fabulous record in covering matches at every level, not just at senior level.

Why they are pushed aside at this time of the year, I cannot understand.

And you take, for example, if the Duny-Gall-Carrie match was on that, two Guelph counties

It's nothing else.

Two Grail to counties.

If that matches on TG Carabin, it's probably the most watched match probably at the weekend.

Do you know what I mean?

And I, going back, if we had really thought about it seriously at convention and gave two extra weeks to the inter-county season, that would, you know,

remove some of the backlog or some of the pressure on free-to-air.

But we didn't.

We had a few counties, including my own here in Galway, who I cannot know why they spearheaded the motion against extending it, because everyone I speak to seems to think that there should be two extra weeks, at least two extra weeks.

I don't honestly know.
