Seamus Callanan loses red card appeal

Tipperary’s Seamus Callanan has failed in his appeal against the red card he received last Sunday while playing against Offaly in the Allianz Hurling League quarter-final.

The centre-forward was sent off after an off-the-ball incident involving Offaly’s Dermot Shortt during the game, which was described by the GAA Central Committee as “striking with his hurley with minimal force”.
