Official Wicklow GAA The GAA #jarlathburns Leinster GAA our local gaa pitch has been closed off without any consultation. To date our club has had to cancel training/matches for our juvenile teams over past 2 weeks. How long will our clubs members be shut out! #newtownmountkennedy

Shameful behaviour from An Garda Síochána Garda Info tonight.
