Derry clubs appeal heavy sanctions after ugly final scenes

DERRY clubs Slaughtneil and Ballinderry last night appealed the heavy bans they incurred following the controversial end to Sunday week’s county football decider.

Representatives from both clubs appeared before a meeting of the Central Hearings Committee of the Derry County Board, yet no decision was released.

The Derry County Board last week hammered both clubs with record bans for a club game in the county.
