The Monday Club

On this week's podcast, Neil Loughran is joined by The Irish News sports editor Paul McConville and sports reporter Cahair O’Kane to chat about moving the All-Ireland finals - and why moving them to August makes no sense.
There’s also wider discussion about the merits of the split season and ask whether winning the National League is really worth it.
We also look at the future of amateur status in the GAA in the wake of the Amateur Status Review Committee’s recent report and whether the proposed ‘Inter County Certification Programme’ can be effective.
