The Cavan players say they are not prepared to play until the minimum standards agreed with the county board are implemented.

The Cavan ladies footballers have followed through on their talk of strike action by pulling out of today’s National League Division 2 fixture against Tyrone.

Cavan’s decision not to fulfil their final league fixture owes to an unresolved row with the county board around the non-payment of travel expenses.
