The Wexford County Board is to propose that a Special Congress of the GAA abolish the 96 week maximum ban for physical or verbal threats to referees.

They are proposing a lifetime ban as a penalty which may be considered instead.

Wexford are also suggesting an overhaul of the 'give respect, get respect' campaign to ensure a comprehensive education programme is implemented for mentors, players and supporters.

 

SOCCER

Dara O'Shea feels the Republic of Ireland team is in a good place.

The West Brom defender played in the Nations League games against Scotland and Armenia.

The Boys in Green won 3-2 against Armenia at the Aviva Stadium last night, surviving a scare against a lower ranked side to retain their status in League B.

Everton defender Nathan Patterson's expected to be out for around four to five weeks with an ankle injury.

The 20-year-old was forced off during Scotland's Nations League win over Ukraine at Hampden Park last week.

Patterson has started all seven Premier League games for Everton this season.

His injury may open the door for Republic of Ireland skipper Seamus Coleman to start away to Southampton in the Premier League on Saturday.

A banana was thrown at Tottenham striker Richarlison as he celebrated scoring Brazil's second goal in their 5-1 friendly win over Tunisia in Paris.

The striker says racism will continue 'every day' and 'everywhere' until it is properly punished.
