ON what was an excellent weekend for Offaly GAA, it is a shame that the O Connor Park lease row between the Offaly GAA County Board and Tullamore GAA Club dominated a lot of public talk.
The row escalated further last week with a lengthy Tullamore letter to clubs outlining their case and adding further timber to an already blazing fire.
The row has been well publicised in recent weeks. It erupted after the County Board sought a reduction of their yearly rent to Tullamore GAA for O Connor Park because of Covid-19. They sought a reduction of €14,061 because of the Covid-19 pandemic and the resultant financial hit they took and when that wasn t granted, they took the decision not to pay it.
