Dublin football boss Ger Brennan has had his 12-week suspension upheld by the GAA's Central Hearings Committee (CHC).

Brennan was issued a red card during the Dubs Allianz League loss to Galway last month – a result which saw the capital men relegated from Division 2 – after being involved in a fracas with Galway strength and conditioning coach Cian Breathnach McGinn.

As a result, Brennan was handed a 12-week ban which leaves him suspended for Dublin’s Leinster championship campaign and the first round of the All-Ireland series.

McGinn hit with an eight-week ban for his part in the incident.

Brennan now has the option of appealing the suspension to the Central Appeals Committee.
