Armagh Claims Players Were Racially Abused By Laois

A statement was issued by the Armagh County Board last night after the GAA revealed that Ciaran McKeever could be suspended for two-matches said that: "The chanting of 'God Save the Queen' and malign taunting of 'British B*****d' has no place either on or off the field of play. This is provocation in the extreme and at variance with Rule 1.2 that 'the Association is a national organisation which has as its basic aim the strengthening of the national identity in a 32-county Ireland through the preservation and promotion of Gaelic games and pastimes. This partitionist mindset is contrary to the preamble in the Treori (Rules)."
