Sligo to appeal wrongful O’Hara dismissal

SLIGO GAA chiefs will bid to have Eamonn O’Hara exonerated following his dismissal in Saturday’s qualifier game against Westmeath.

Their case will be based on the fact that referee Michael Ryan, from Limerick, erred in giving O’Hara a second yellow card.

It was acknowledged at the time that it was a case of mistaken identity by a linesman and manager Tommy Breheny made that known after the game.
