FRC’s Scullion brushes off high profile critics of black card

Football Review Committee (FRC) member Tony Scullion said he has no inclination of getting into a war of words with critics of the black card.

Mickey Harte had a thinly-veiled dig at the FRC on Sunday, while Louth manager Aidan O’Rourke described the Congress vote as a “victory for the meddlers” and “the little to be ats who never coach”.

Scullion is satisfied enough in the battle having being won to convince GAA delegates of the proposal to curb cynicism in Gaelic football. However, he readily dismissed their criticism of the successful FRC recommendation.
