UL GAA row not to go to Supreme Court

Three members of the University of Limerick Hurling club have decided not to appeal to the Supreme Court the decision to remove an injunction that prevented the GAA from holding a disciplinary hearing over the alleged illegal participation of a player in a third level hurling game.

On Thursday Mr Justice Thomas Smyth agreed to an application brought by the GAA to discharge the interim injunction, granted to Dr Peter Tiernan, Chairman, Brendan Bulger, Club Secretary and Clare senior hurler, and player Kieran Joyce of the University of Limerick's hurling club.
