Former county skipper Boyle was hit with the suspension following allegations he “interfered with an official” in the North Kerry SFC quarter-final between his club Ballyduff and St Senan’s last month.

The Divisional Board’s disciplinary chiefs imposed the punishment following a review of the match report from referee Eddie Barrett.
