Jim Gavin stands over claims that Dublin's Diarmuid Connolly was 'disrespected'

Dublin manager Jim Gavin is standing over his claim that Diarmuid Connolly's good name was attacked last month by some TV pundits, writes Brendan O'Brien.

Gavin took exception to the dissection of the player's actions during the Leinster football quarter-final defeat of Carlow last month when the St Vincent's forward directed a light shove at the chest of linesman Ciaran Brannigan.
