Board awaits ref’s report on fracas

WATERFORD County Board are remaining tight-lipped as to what action they will take following the ill-tempered SHC semi-final between Ballygunner and Lismore on Saturday night.

Four players were dismissed during the game and referee Michael Wadding was attacked in the aftermath. Board officials are awaiting the referee’s report before taking further action.

“The whole matter is sub judice at this point in time, and it would be inappropriate, to say the very least, for anyone in officialdom to make public comment,” county secretary Seamas Grant said.
