Carolan fumes over three-day turnaround

CAVAN U21 selector Ronan Carolan has accused the GAA’s Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) of blatant disregard for player welfare over its refusal to postpone Saturday’s All-Ireland football semi-final against Wexford.

Carolan felt it is unreasonable to expect the Breffni players to fulfil the fixture, just three days after their Ulster final victory over Tyrone.

“It is absolutely scandalous, and it is a big, big issue,” he said.
