CDC slaps six-month ban on Monaghan selector

MONAGHAN football selector Gerry Carville has been given a 24-week suspension by the Central Disciplinary Committee arising out of an incident during his county’s Allianz National League defeat to Kerry in Scotstown last Sunday.

In a strongly worded report, referee Cormac Reilly (Meath) reported that Carville physically abused one of his umpires at the conclusion of the game.

Reilly followed a man into the Monaghan dressing room after one of his umpires was knocked to the ground and had to receive medical attention.
