Mayo GAA have suspended three members of James Horan's backroom team for three months following their non-approved presence at last month's All-Ireland SFC final against Dublin.
Croke Park questioned Mayo chiefs over the trio's appearance at Headquarters for the decider, which was caught on CCTV.
The punishment has brought the matter to a close for GAA bosses.
None of the three were on the permitted list of 12 team management officials allocated to the Connacht champions and had not undergone the relevant Covid-19 checks.
An internal review was conducted and following an apology from all three, they have been suspended from their roles, with Mayo GAA insisting that all three were in Croke Park without the knowledge of county board bosses or Horan.
Mayo GAA has examined the issue of the presence of unaccredited backroom team members at last year’s All-Ireland Football Final after it was recently brought to our attention.
"Following a review process, all unaccredited members of the backroom team admitted their mistake, apologised sincerely for their actions and have been suspended for three months.
"These individuals attended the game without the knowledge of the County Boards officers and the team manager.
"Mayo GAA would like to place on record our commitment to the GAA and the government’s Covid guidelines, all of which are in place for the safety and well-being of our players, members and the wider community."
