Flynn apologises to ref for Twitter rant

Wexford footballer Adrian Flynn has apologised for his outburst against referee Anthony Nolan on social media.

Flynn had tweeted his annoyance at Nolan’s officiating of Sunday’s qualifier contest between Wexford and Laois, questioning a number of second-half frees awarded to Tomás Ó Flatharta’s side.

The Wicklow referee was booed off the field upon the full-time whistle, with Laois progressing 0-17 to 0-16. Flynn on Tuesday removed the post from his twitter account and apologised to Nolan for the critical nature of his comment.
