McGeeney: We didn’t defy ban

KILDARE manager Kieran McGeeney has rubbished claims his team broke the ban on collective training for inter-county teams during November and December.

A Sunday newspaper reported that the Lilywhites had participated in group training sessions during their two-week holiday to San Francisco and New York.

Last year’s Leinster finalists played an exhibition game that was sanctioned by the GAA but McGeeney rejected allegations that they broke any rules.
