Davey Byrne issue ‘parked’ by Dublin, says Bernard Brogan

Bernard Brogan insists Dublin have parked the controversial ‘Davey Byrne Affair’ which saw the panellist suffer a broken nose before a recent challenge match against Armagh at DCU.

The incident has generated huge media attention, though the GAA’s Central Competitions Control Committee only belatedly asked for information regarding the matter, which happened the week before Dublin claimed another Leinster title at Westmeath’s expense.

“Four 35s were played in the game after whatever the incident was and it was played with great merit and great football and both teams learned a lot from it,” according to Brogan who was training in another part of the DCU complex when the alleged incident occurred.
