Boland to miss minor final

Tipperary minor hurler John Boland will miss the All-Ireland Final against Kilkenny on Sunday next following a ruling by the Management Committee that any player receiving a red card gets an automatic one month suspension.

The Toomevara player was ordered off, along with three others, in a minor hurling game against Kilruane/McDonagh on August 14 but had not received a one month suspension until the GAA Management Committee and Uachtaran Sean McCague intervened.
