Kerry ‘not confident’ of overturning Galvin ban

KERRY GAA chiefs are not confident the eight-week ban proposed for former Footballer of the Year Paul Galvin will be reduced.

The suspension if upheld, would rule Galvin out of the championship until August 8 – if Kerry were to progress past a Munster final with Limerick and the All-Ireland quarter-final.

Galvin has yet to decide if he wants the case heard by the Central Hearings Committee but last night Kerry chairman Jerome Conway said he “was not confident” such an approach would secure the desiredresult.
