We’ve drawn a line under Johnston saga, says Cavan PRO

Cavan PRO Declan Woods insist Terry Hyland’s team won’t be distracted by the prospect of former county player Seánie Johnston lining out against them with Kildare in the second round of the All-Ireland qualifiers.

The counties were pulled out of the bowls to face each other in yesterday morning’s draw with Cavan gaining home advantage.

The GAA’s Central Competitions Control Committee (CCCC) will today announce the times and venues for the backdoor fixtures with suggestions last night that the Cavan-Kildare game could be played in Kingspan Breffni Park on Sunday week with no live television coverage. Woods said they won’t get sidetracked by Johnston facing Cavan despite raising doubts about his transfer application earlier this year.
