The GAA currently has a ban on pre-match training at Croke Park for all GAA teams, but international soccer and rugby teams were allowed to hold training sessions there prior to games.
However, the Kildare football panel were able to train for 30 minutes there on Wednesday night, ahead of their Leinster SFC Final clash with Dublin next Sunday. The Lilywhites' manager Kieran McGeeney has been quite outspoken on calling for an end to the ban on pre-match training sessions.
Now that the GAA has relented on their policy by letting the Lilywhites have a run-out at Croke Park, does it mean other counties will be able to train there over the rest of the Championship season? Or are the GAA chiefs giving special treatment to Kildare?
Hey GAA, just lift the ban completely and make it fair for all teams to have the option to train prior to playing at Croker!!
