O’Neill: Black card message working

The message that black cards are not worth picking up is getting through to teams, according to GAA president Liam O’Neill.

The Laois man only returned yesterday morning from a four-day trip to the US where he was attending a series of events in Buffalo and New York city.

However, he has been enthused by reports confirming for the second weekend running a relatively low number of black cards have been issued in pre-season competitions.
