Former Donegal player and manager Declan Bonner is facing a 12-week suspension arising from his red card in Na Rossa's recent Ulster Club JFC quarter-final against Lisnaskea.

The Na Rossa boss was sent off along with players Denis O’Donnell, Christian Bonner and Sean McMonagle and team physio Mickey McGlynn during the ill-tempered clash which Lisnaskea won by 1-9 to 2-5. A 12-week ban has also been proposed for McGlynn by the Ulster CCC after examining referee Richie Donoghue's report.

After the game, Bonner described the standard of officating as “an absolute disgrace”.
