Dublin Ladies football officials won't be lodging an appeal against the result of yesterday's controversial All-Ireland senior final against Cork.
In a statement, the Jackies congratulated the Rebelettes on their one-point victory but called on the LGFA to act now to avoid a repeat of the 'score error' in the future.
"Dublin Players, Management and Executive congratulate Cork on winning the 2016 Senior All-Ireland final.
"We wish it to be noted that we are very disappointed that the score error could not be rectified on the field of play and we will focus our efforts to require that LGFA put processes in place so that no other team is subjected to such a situation.
"Dublin LGFA will be making no further comment on this issue."
