The GAA will have to conduct a massive financial overhaul if crowds are not permitted to return to games within the next 12 months. With official collective inter-county training commencing today, that support is timely. Along with the FAI and IRFU, the GAA are working on a submission for the safe return of supporters to games. It is also believed Croke Park will highlight their own successful track and trace protocols with over 6.5m health questionnaires pertaining to club activities now having been completed. The bleak financial picture of games behind closed doors and severely restricted capacities was made clear to the GAA’s Management Committee and Central Council on Friday and Saturday respectively.
