Longford chairman Albert Cooney has condemned the GAA’s handling of the Covid training breaches by counties.

Cooney has hit out at the leniency of the punishments handed to Cork, Down, Dublin, and Monaghan, which comprised losing home advantage in one National League game and three-month suspensions for Ronan McCarthy, Dessie Farrell, and Seamus McEnaney and a two-month ban for Paddy Tally.
