Dublin County Board's stance on the controversial issue of Government grants to intercounty players won't be known until the matter is debated at Central Council despite the fact that a majority of club delegates have given the scheme the thumbs down. The issue of grant payments was discussed at last Monday night's Dublin County Board meeting and it is understood that most of the views expressed were against the payment of grants. However, at the end of the hour and a half debate, in which some 35 delegates had their say on the matter, no vote was taken and no direction given to the executive. "We had no proposal from the floor - we were asked for no vote," Dublin chairman Gerry Harrington confirmed. "So it was decided to leave the topic in the hands of our Central Council delegate. He will take into consideration all of the views that were expressed at the meeting." Tweet
