Cavan's senior ladies footballers will not fulfil their Division Two clash with Tyrone this afternoon over an ongoing dispute with the county board.
The team has pulled out of the game over a player expenses row and has said they are not prepared to play 'until the issues have been fully resolved'.
Cavan threatened strike action earlier this week, claiming that 20 players commuting from Dublin are owed travel expenses from the county board.

In a statement released this morning, the team claimed that promises made in a written agreement with the board are still to be met.
"As you are most likely aware, a written agreement that we signed up to in good faith with our county board has not been honoured," said the statement.
"We have made numerous attempts to have the minimum standards set out in the agreement adhered to but unfortunately this has not happened.
"While there has been positive engagement since the issues involved were brought to light, we now want to see it backed up by action and these minimum standards finally implemented.
"We are not prepared to play until the issues have been fully resolved as we have been let down as regards promises and commitments previously.
"We communicated our position to the County Board Executive yesterday. We have subsequently been informed and are aware of the potential consequences of not playing.
"We want what’s best for ourselves and girls playing club football in Cavan now who will some day line out for our county. The girls and women in Cavan deserve to have promises kept and to be treated with respect. It's imperative we protect those who are most vulnerable, including student members of our squad.
"We are proud to represent our county and pull on the Cavan jersey. Taking a decision to withdraw from a game is not something we do lightly. However, given the current circumstances, we feel we do not have any other option."
