Pat Gilroy Resigns From Croke Park Roll.

(Oldest Posts First)

Pat has resigned from his Croke Park Roll over threat to the games amateur status, he has also walked away from the GAA's risk and audit committee after GAA president Jarleth Burns recently raised the prospect of contracts for county managers.

Jarlath Burns has been flying more kites in the last 6 months than has been flown in the previous 6 years.
Pat Gilroy doesn't like the colour of this kite so took the opportunity to get off the bridge in case he got associated with something that's never going to happen.
Nothing to see, move on !!!

Could he not have stayed and fought his corner?

Fair play to Gilroy for stepping away if his issue is paid contracts for inter-county managers. This is more an issue for smaller counties but the Dubs would be the one county that could afford to bring in the best paid managers.

Gilroy is a good GAA man and is looking at the bigger picture, not just the interests of his own county.

He may also be looking at the bigger picture of who succeeds Jarleth Burns.

I can only imagain he would think it's pointless.
