Dublin football manager Ger Brennan has had his 12-week suspension upheld by the GAA's Central Appeals Committee (CAC).

Brennan’s appeal was rejected on Monday night after an earlier appeal to the Central Hearings Committee (CHC) was also upheld. The St Vincent’s clubman is now expected to take his case to the Disputes Resolution Authority (DRA) in a final effort to have his suspension overturned or reduced.

The ban was proposed after Brennan was red-carded along with Galway strength and conditioning coach Cian Breathnach McGinn by referee Fergal Kelly following an incident at the end of the first half of last month’s Allianz League Division 1 Round 7 encounter in Salthill.

As things stand, Brennan won’t be involved with Dublin for Sunday’s Leinster SFC quarter-final against Wicklow in Aughrim.
