Donegal boss Declan Bonner says that the GAA’s disciplinary process amazes him, as Sunday’s grudge match with Armagh approaches.
Bonner has to plan for the match without Neil McGee and Odhrán McFadden-Ferry, both suspended as a result of the fracas that broke out during their League tie with Armagh last month, when Donegal scored a one-point win in Letterkenny to preserve their Division One status.
He was speaking before news emerged on Tuesday night that Orchard trio Aidan Nugent, Ciarán Mackin and Stefan Campbell saw their suspensions sensationally lifted, adding to the boost that manager Kieran McGeeney had already received last week when ace forward Rian O’Neill had his ban thrown out, apparently on a technicality.
