'Maybe there’s an objective to sanitise Gaelic football': Jim Gavin reacts to 'bizarre' decision

“Surprised is probably an understatement.”

Jim Gavin has labelled as “bizarre” the GAA’s Central Hearings Committee’s decision to uphold Michael Fitzsimons’ one-match suspension arising from his red card against Mayo, writes John Fogarty.

Fitzsimons was sent to the line by referee Paddy Neilan for a mistimed foul on Aidan O’Shea in the second half of last month’s win in Castlebar.
