The GAA will not be selling the naming rights to Croke Park

The GAA has this morning clarified that they will not be selling naming rights to Croke Park in the near future.

An article in the Irish Times today stated that Duffy refused to rule out the selling of naming rights on the Jones Road venue.

Croke Park has acted quickly to clear up the situation with the following statement:

"GAA Director General Páraic Duffy has refuted a claim in today’s Irish Times that ‘he had admitted that GAA would be open to selling naming rights to Croke Park’.

In response to a question from an Irish Times journalist, he had stated that the GAA had never received or sought offers for naming rights in Croke Park, nor had the matter been discussed by the GAA. 

He had said that he could not talk for 50 or 100 years down the line but in terms of the near future he could not see the GAA selling naming rights to Croke Park."
