DONEGAL HAVE CONFIRMED that they will not be appealing the suspensions handed out to players following last weekend’s Division One National Football League clash against Armagh.

This will likely see them miss this month’s Ulster championship meeting of the sides, with Stefan Campbell, Aidan Nugent and Ciaran Mackin suspended from the Armagh side.
It is understood all five players were named in referee Paddy Neilan’s report after Donegal’s 1-14 to 1-13 win in Letterkenny.

“Consequently, Donegal will not be appealing the suspensions handed out to Donegal players.”
Ballybofey hosts the side’s mouth-watering provincial championship showdown on 24 April.
