‘We’re not here to entertain’

DERRY manager Damien Cassidy last night made no apologies for the physicality of their Ulster SFC victory over Monaghan claiming “we are not in the business of entertaining people”.

GAA chiefs are set to review video replays of the hard hitting clash as football discipline finds itself under the microscope after the second weekend of the championship.

Cassidy’s side claimed victory by three points (1-10 to 0-10) however the win was overshadowed by a series of controversial incidents. Referee Jimmy White of Donegal flashed nine yellow cards and one red in an explosive encounter in front of 10,380 vociferous followers at the new-look Celtic Park while RTÉ cameras picked up several off-the- ball incidents in the quarter-final.
