County Board to appeal one match ban

The GAA's Central Hearings Committee have handed the defender a one-match suspension following his red card in Longford's Allianz Football League Division 3 defeat to Westmeath in Mullingar at the end of March

The rule in question was “Behaving in any way which is dangerous to an opponent”.

The Mullinalaghta man can still take his case to the Central Appeals Committee and Longford GAA have confirmed that they will be appealing the suspension.
