Mixed response to Counihan’s red card call

Conor Counihan’s suggestion to send off players who get involved in melees has received mixed reaction among GAA officialdom and his fellow inter-county bosses.

Speaking on RTÉ Radio following Sunday’s Allianz Football LeagueDivision 1 draw in Armagh, which featured a 28-man shemozzle, the Cork manager said something has to be done to cut such incidents out.

“It happens week-in, week-out,” said Counihan.
