Clare have tabled another motion opposing pay-per-view, while Leitrim have joined Roscommon in calling for the GAA not to renew their broadcasting deals with Sky Sports and Eir when they elapse in 2021. A similar motion put forward by Leitrim club St Mary’s, Kiltoghert was also backed at Leitrim’s annual convention last month. Clare had previously had a pay-per-view motion diverted to Central Council, who rejected it. As it failed to receive one-third backing, a similar motion may not be permitted on the clár until 2019, as per rule 3.4 (h) of the GAA’s Official Guide. Central Council are set to put forward three motions to Congress relating to closing loopholes that presented themselves during disciplinary cases in 2017.
