Donegal final in limbo as CCC discuss Naomh Conaill appeal

The RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta Donegal SFC was in a state of limbo last night as an appeal by Naomh Conaill into the result of Sunday’s semi-final was being discussed by the Competitions’ Control Committee.

The Glenties-based club lost 0-10 to 0-8 on Sunday against holders Glenswilly, whose victory set up a final meeting against neighbours St Eunan’s from Letterkenny, which has been pencilled in for this coming Sunday in Ballybofey.

However, the crux of the Naomh Conaill appeal centres around match referee Jimmy White permitting Glenswilly to replace Ciaran Bonner after he was yellow carded in the first half and then black carded on 58 minutes.
