Sympathies have been extended to inter-county football referee Niall Cullen on the death of his brother Rossa.

Rossa, who died suddenly on Wednesday, was part of Niall's team of officials and played both football and hurling for Erne Gaels GAC with whom the Cullen family have a long association with. Their late father Tom Cullen was a former chairman, secretary and treasurer of the Belleek club.

Fermanagh GAA tweeted: "The committee and members of Coiste Contae Fhear Manach were saddened to learn of the death of Rossa Cullen RIP, brother of our current IT Officer Niall and son of the late Tom Cullen RIP.

The Cullen family have served, and continue to serve, the GAA in Erne Gaels GAC, Fermanagh and Ulster GAA with distinction as players, officers and match officials.

"We tender our deepest sympathies to Rossa’s family and friends.

"Ar dheis Dé go raibh a h'anam dílis."
