Tipperary manager Liam Cahill hit with proposed four-week ban

Tipperary boss Liam Cahill has been proposed for a four-week ban.

It comes on the back of Cahill being issued with a red card in the dying moments of his side’s dramatic draw with Limerick last Sunday.

It is believed that referee Sean Stack dismissed the ex-Waterford boss on the back of a comment directed at linesman James Owens after he had awarded Limerick a sideline ball.

Cahill is entitled to seek a hearing in a bid to have the suspension quashed but if it is upheld, he can have no involvement whatsoever with the team for its duration.

That would mean not only sitting out his side’s last round robin game against his former side this Sunday and a likely subsequent Munster final against Clare on June 11 but, by rule, he would also be prevented from taking part in any training sessions or communicating with the rest of his management team or players, albeit that aspect of the sanction is virtually impossible to enforce.
