Kildare manager Glenn Ryan is facing an eight week suspension and a two match ban for incidents surrounding the recent championship match with Monaghan

GAELIC GAMES

Kildare manager Glenn Ryan has been handed down a recommended eight-week ban, that carries a guaranteed two-match suspension, for his post-match remarks about referee Jerome Henry last Saturday week.

A frustrated Ryan condemned the Mayo match official's performance following his side's exit from the championship to Monaghan in Tullamore's Glenisk O'Connor Park.

The Round Towers man is understood to have been cited by the Central Competitions Control Committee for comments about Henry who he mentioned as "one of the weaker referees" in a television interview.

Ryan also told reporters: “Our job is to try and prepare the team and get them out on the pitch for the lads to try and do the best that they can.

"It’s other people’s jobs to make sure they get decisions right as to who officiates these games.

Ryan can request a hearing.
