The gloves were off in Ardfinnan on Saturday

There were ugly scenes of violence at a Tipperary club football championship match on Saturday.

The sickening fracas broke out after referee Michael Duffy had sounded his final whistle on Moyle Rovers' one-point win over Galtee Rovers in the SFC preliminary quarter-final at Ardfinnan.

Players and backroom members from both teams got involved in the unsavoury set-to, which continued for two minutes.

Nobody was injured but the Tipperary CCC is certain to take action once it has studied the referee's report.
