New Leitrim manager Andy Moran believes that GPA-backed Proposal B is the right option for football going forward.

Next Saturday will see delegates voting at Special Congress to potentially change the current format of the All-Ireland senior football championship, with a 60 per cent majority required for a proposal to go through.

Speaking on The Football Pod, Moran said that while he’s in favour of Proposal B, which would see a league-base championship being brought in, he does see the effect it could have on counties competing in the Ulster championship.

"Most counties are in favour of it (Proposal B), but you have to respect where the Ulster counties are coming from. They run a really competitive championship.

"I don't think Proposal B works in its current format. I think it will get through, but it will need to be adjusted slightly."

On the prospects of what the new format under Proposal B could have for his new Leitrim side, the former Mayo star added.

"For a county like Leitrim to get that level of competition would be just unbelievable. If you're a squad player in that game against Mayo, you've done all the training, and you can still only bring on five players.

"There are nine players who aren't getting a game. They don't even have a chance to get in the game."
