Armagh set to appeal McCabe red card

February 16, 2022

Armagh's Greg McCabe is sent off for his involvement in the scuffle by referee David Gough

Armagh are expected to appeal Greg McCabe's red card tonight.

McCabe was sent off along with Tyrone's Michael McKernan, Padraig Hampsey, Peter Harte and Kieran McGeary for contributing to the melee which marred the closing stages of Armagh's Allianz Football League win over the All-Ireland champions at the Athletic Grounds last Sunday week.

The Tyrone's quartet failed to have their one-match bans overturned at a Central Hearings Committee meeting on Monday night, but may yet take their cases to the Central Appeals Committee. If that fails, they have the option of going to the Disputes Resolution Authority.

As things stand, McCabe is suspended for the Orchard County's local derby clash with Monaghan on Saturday evening.
