Na Fianna injunction stops playing of semi-final

NA FIANNA have been granted a temporary High Court injunction which restrains the playing of the Dublin SFC semi-final between Raheny and UCD today.

The injunction continues until Monday.

The move comes only 24 hours after GAA president Seán McCague drafted a new sub-committee to prevent Gaelic games' disputes ending up in court. Solicitor Mark Sanfey BL, read an affidavit yesterday by Na Fianna chairman Charles O'Reilly, who said the Games Administration Committee of the Dublin County Board held that his club exceeded the number of permitted substitutes in the quarter-final meeting in which they defeated Raheny.
