Paul Geaney says Mayo manager Kevin McStay’s claim that David Clifford received preferential treatment from referee David Coldrick last Sunday is “dangerous language”.

Following Kerry’s Division 1 final win in Croke Park, McStay felt two-time footballer of the year was “well looked after” by match officials. “He can’t always be out in front,” remarked McStay. “Nature doesn’t allow that. He can’t be out in front for every ball.”
