Cobh Ramblers boss Stuart Ashton will not be able to manage in the League of Ireland from the 2022 season after the FAI insisted they will apply the full provisions of their coaching policy.

Ashton, who works for the FAI as a coordinator of the Cork Education Training Board (ETB) course for young players, is one of several staff affected by the directive laid out by new FAI chief executive Jonathan Hill.
