WHY?
Sports news on local radio on Sunday night last: priority was given, in club news, to another code in England and in Scotland before announcing the results of OUR country’s second most important national final(s) in Gaelic football! Was Dublin v Doire and Armagh v Tír Chonaill less important than club games in a faraway place? Why are GAA games playing ‘second fiddle’ on OUR airways? Are we less proud of our own? Náire? Mórtas cine ‘in easnamh’?
