Donegal chief backs McGuinness in TG4 row

Donegal chairman PJ McGowan has backed Jim McGuinness’s decision to refuse an interview with TG4 on Sunday.

McGowan believes the manager did so after an incident involving the broadcaster before the league game against Laois last month.

McGuinness had been interviewed by presenter Micheal Ó Domhnaill with axed panel member Kevin Cassidy — TG4 pundit on the day — standing alongside him. It’s understood players Rory Kavanagh and Michael Murphy were also asked by TG4 for interviews on Sunday but declined.
