According to a Garda statement, issued to local media, members of the force were called to the venue. “We were called to the GAA grounds in Whiterock to investigate an alleged assault on the match referee. We carried out an initial investigation having been informed of an incident involving a St Joseph’s mentor, who is alleged to have had an altercation with the referee.

10 year ban, end of. Sooner every Club member or attendee at a game appreciates that nothing happens without the ref, the better. What is wrong with people.
