Joe Canning feels that the GAA has created far too much competition for itself with the new split season model.
The ex-Galway star is not averse to the year being divided down the middle between inter-county and club activity but feels that the club season should lead the way for a number of reasons.
Among them is the fact that the inter-county Championships starting in April means that they are jostling for people’s attention at a time when other codes’ seasons are coming to a climax.
