O’Sullivan blasts GAA chiefs as Cork lose appeal

Cork football selector Ger O’Sullivan has slammed GAA chiefs following the Central Hearing Committee’s decision to strip them of home advantage for their Division 1 tie against Laois.

Cork were handed the stiffer punishment on Saturday after contesting the charge of a €5,000 fine brought against them by the Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) for their players’ involvement in a melee with Armagh in their away league fixture earlier this month. It means Conor Counihan’s side will face Laois in Portlaoise on March 10.

As Munster Interprovincial manager, O’Sullivan was back in Armagh’s Morgan Athletic Grounds yesterday.
