Garvey ruled out of Ulster final
July 12, 2012
Conor Garvey returns for Down.
The Mayobridge defender received a retrospective ban from the CCCC for an alleged stamp on Monaghan's Karl O'Connell during last month's dramatic Ulster semi-final, which saw Down come from nine points down to win by a point. He appealed the suspension to the Central Hearings Committee, who decided to uphold his ban last week.
Garvey subsequently indicating that he was taking his case to the Central Appeals Committee and was due to appear before them last night. But that didn't happen after the Down county board failed to pay the necessary fee to lodge the appeal within the timeframe allowed. Tweet
