Former GAA President says GAAGO format needs to be reviewed

The GAAGO arrangement between RTÉ and the GAA shouldn’t go ahead in its current format next year.

That’s according to former GAA President and Ireland South MEP Seán Kelly.

The Kilcummin native, who served as GAA president between 2003 and 2006, says the subscription streaming service is not a good arrangement for the GAA or supporters.

Kerry’s next game against Mayo on May 20^th will not be shown free-to-air; it’ll only be streamed on GAAGO at a cost of €12.

It’s among 38 football and hurling championship games to be shown on the subscription-only platform.

Seán Kelly says it’s too late to change the format for this season, but the situation needs to be reviewed immediately for next year.
