GAA says it received no complaints over Confederate flag sighted at Munster final

The GAA says that it did not receive a single formal complaint about the Confederate flag that was in the crowd during last Saturday's Munster final replay between Kerry and Cork.

A spokesperson for the GAA also says that policing the use of the flag would be nearly impossible for the GAA and would invoke an inevitable backlash.
