'Handbag' woman banned for a year
February 06, 2012
The Derrytresk supporter who hit Kerry and Dromid Pearses star Declan O'Sullivan with a handbag during last month's controversial All-Ireland club JFC semi-final has been banned from attending games for a year.
The CCCC has proposed a 48-week ban for the woman who attacked O'Sullivan after the ill-tempered clash, which was marred by a massive brawl. The GAA's disciplinary body is also expected to take action against a number of other supporters who became involved in the disgraceful scenes at O'Moore Park a fortnight ago.
Eight Derrytresk players, including Kevin Campbell, Sean Slater, Michael Robinson and Joe McKee who started the game, will have their appeals against eight-week suspensions heard by the Central Hearings Committee tomorrow night in a bid to be cleared to play in next Sunday's All-Ireland final against Naomh Padraig of Galway.
