There are other GAA speakers there as well, there has been a few of these conferences since August and Irish Life has invested over a million into this GAA initiative last year, thereby granting them clearly some sort of right to have the cup in their possession for the conferences. The conference had been scheduled for that date before the final had been played and its just unfortunate now that its taking place is coinciding with the aftermath of the replay. It is nothing to do with PM, he is there as a speaker, he does this regularly for different initiatives. he is not anything to do with bringing in the cup. The cup is there on behalf of the GAA who have received massive funding from Irish Life so it is fair game that they could have it fo a few hours. Would you honestly begrudge them that, given the intention of the conference. Come on people, this is ridiculous conspiracy theoried, paronoid, inferiority complexed thinking. The media has trolled you and you have fallen for it!https://www.irishlife.ie/customer-service/about-irish-life/irish-life-thrilled-support-gaa-healthy-club-initiative

Presence of PM as one of the speakers. Presence of Sam Maguire on behalf of the fact they have invested 1 million into the Organisation. Simples! Call it what you want!! But, yes, it worked a bloody treat!

They cancel each other out so. If people read the full article and not just the headline, the point he is making is that Keegan may actually be more useful to Mayo playing football and he is right

We had hill-gate first where Hill16 were calling on the Dubs to take back the hills BS with tickets going to Mayo unfairly, then we had pitch gate where there was too much water on the pitch and Rock was slipping and it effected his free taken, now we have Keegan (gate doesn't suit!) where he seems to be the only man on the pitch who is been singled out. Odd when there are least another 4 or 5 who carry on the same way. At the end of the day Mayo are only going up to make up the numbers and are given no chance, so Dublin expected to win it handy. Not sure why they are stressing out over hill/pitch/Keegan! Strange isn't it?
