The Cork County Board are investigating an incident from last month’s Cork SHC game between Bishopstown and Newtownshandrum, where a Newtownshandrum supporter is alleged to have physically interfered with referee Cathal McAllister.

The GAA will have to look at starting the Allianz Hurling League before Christmas to avoid fixtures pile-ups like the one caused by last Sunday’s string of postponements, Waterford County Board chairman Paddy Joe Ryan has suggested.
