Sheehan’s fight for justice could cost €100,000

FRANKIE SHEAHAN yesterday estimated that the legal costs of his successful appeal against a two year ban for doping could rise above €100,000.

Asthma sufferer Sheahan, a guest on the Marian Finucane Show on RTÉ Radio One, spoke of the horrors he had to endure in the last three months as he battled to clear his name.

Sheahan is bracing himself for a huge bill, even though a number of experts who helped him through the ordeal have promised their services for free.
