GAAGO,Jarlath Burns

GAA unhappy at recent media contributions by Simon Harris and Micheál Martin regarding subscription channel.

GAA PRESIDENT JARLATH BURNS has hit back at recent comments made by Taoiseach Simon Harris when he said that the GAA have “Gotten this wrong,” on streaming service GAAGO .

“There were no issues at the end of it, they accepted every argument that we had, all of our rationale, the fact that we only have one broadcast partner, that is RTÉ. They had 35 matches. “So, very surprised and disappointed that the Taoiseach, and then the Tánaiste would speak about something that we have already been in front of an Oireachtas committee for.”

Asked if GAAGO could have the potential to make the levels of money SKYTV was paying for broadcast rights – €4 million per annum, Burns said, “Yes, we do. That’s what we would hope.
