CROSSMAGLEN RANGERS STRONGLY deny a biting allegation from yesterday’s AIB Ulster senior club football quarter-final victory over Antrim side Erin’s Own, Cargin.
Manager John Brennan claimed after the game that midfielder Michael McCann had been bitten in a brawl involving up to a dozen players.
But speaking to RTÉ Radio’s Morning Ireland, Rangers joint-boss Oisin McConville refuted the Cargin claims.
“There’s not really much we can do about it, all we can do is ask.
“These sorts of incidents are very, very hard to prove, something very hard to see.
“We’re happy that it didn’t happen.
“The other thing about incidents like this is that we wouldn’t condone anything like that, it’s not the way we play our football.
“We haven’t been associated with this stuff before, it wouldn’t be something that the management team would be condoning and as a club, it not something we would want happening.”
Crossmaglen won by 2-15 to 0-13, booking their place in the semi-finals of the Ulster championship.
At his age it’s a clever thing to do, he’ll be 31 by the time his contract runs out. Take a nice hefty signing fee from Juve and spend your last 2/3 seasons in Turin before retirement. Bad bit of business by Spurs though.
@David Lawlor: better not get injured before Christmas. That will be in his mind and impact on his performance. Little tweaks and he will cry off.
@David Lawlor: it’s a release clause, if he won’t sign a contract what you expect them to do
Fair chance he’s looking to run down his contract, I guess
@Kevin Ryan: Then Juve will swoop in for the free transfer. Lovely jubbly!
Absolutely nuts how nobody went for him. It was a no brianer for Solskjaer or even Emery to go in for him.
@Patsy Mongan: Would have also weakened a rival in Spurs who dont have the cash to sign a replacement of equal quality.
@PΛÐÐY ЯOOПΣY: dont have the cash? Do you not follow the news.. spurs are loaded
Woodward hang your head in shame
Will go to juve for free and a big payday next summer
There is a good possibility he could end up at Ajax too, said he wants to finish his career there.
