Suspensions have been imposed on Clare players Barry Nugent, Alan Markham, Andrew Quinn and Colin Lynch, and Cork’s Sean Óg Ó hAilpín, Diarmuid O Sullivan and Dónal Óg Cusack, the GAA has confirmed.

CLARE’s stance on the GAC probe into the ‘Gerry Quinn affair’ was strongly defended by Banner GAA chiefs at yesterday’s annual convention in Ennis.
