Dublin club delegates against pay-for-play

The latest news from Ofonebelief.org informs us that 35 club delegates spoke out against the grants proposal at the Dublin County Board meeting on Monday night. According to the update Dublin’s Clubs were very clear about two things. They don’t want the scheme and they were bitterly disappointed that the whole thing had been handled as a “done deal” at a high level and they had not been consulted.

The Hoganstand confirms that a majority of Dublin club delegates are against the scheme. But, strangely, no vote was taken and it has been left to Dublin's Central Council delegate "to take all the views expressed at the meeting into consideration".
A sizeable rump there.
