McCann ban is 'lunacy', says Horan

13 August 2015

James Horan has described Tiernan McCann's proposed eight-week ban as 'lunacy'.

The former Mayo manager claims the Killyclogher clubman has been "hung out to dry" by the GAA and fears the whole controversy could harm Tyrone's chances of upsetting Kerry in Sunday week's All-Ireland SFC semi-final.

"If Tiernan McCann is suspended for eight weeks, you'd have to question what the GAA is at," Horan writes in the Irish Daily Star.

"This proposed ban is absolute lunacy. It's yet another example of elements of the media setting the agenda and the GAA authorities following sheepishly behind.

"It has been argued that this furore will help Tyrone going into the All-Ireland semi-finals, that they'll feed off a siege mentality. I don't see it that way. This kind of stuff can't be helpful.

"The CCCC has made a big mistake in my opinion. This is a response to media hysteria. Joe Brolly set the ball rolling with a Sunday newspaper column and then the Sunday Game laid into McCann.

"It looks to be me as if Croke Park react to pressure from pundits. That's not right.

"McCann made a stupid mistake late on against Monaghan. He was daft and wrong in what he did (taking a dive) – there's no question about that. But he's been singled out as part of a witch-hunt by elements of the media."

It is lunacy and a disgrace and I for one hope common sense prevails!

If McCann plays against Kerry I hope he gets what he deserves after that awful shite he pulled!!!

Not sure why you are attacking Kerrymen.

It seems to me to be mainly your neighbours who the most vocal critics.

Your biggest supporters are the likes of James Horan and half of the southerners on here.

Ahh no it was meant as a complement. I haven't heard Liston speak but maybe he could replace Pat on TV? Then all we would need is a Dublin Sunday game  pundit with an All Ireland medal and things might start to calm down a bit

Joe McMahon having a hernia operation at the weekend. He'd be very doubtful for the 23rd.

They suspect he'll be fit, all keyhole surgery im told, he'll suffer a bit of bruising but no muscle damage, shud be fit to play all being well.

Not according to the latest reports, they it looks like he's gonna miss it. We could have done with at least that falling our way

A fair, balanced and well thought out piece from Bomber Liston...and he's a legend too!

Looks like JOD isn't going to be fit to play. It's Tyrone's to lose now

This is a massive blow to Kerry. I think he is the player that poses us most problems up front due to his movement and pace and his ability to stretch the defensive cover. All we need now is for their two midfielders to run into each other in training and we'll be confident enough.

Some Arma posters really have deep issues , that are mentally unhealthy ; and I'm not joking.

What issues and who?

Issues with Tyrone Gaa -, Fearon,  Stew and you,  may be others. Didn't have the time to read all the pages on the Monaghan game ( was getting tedious, McCanns dive was pathetic by the way ) , but if you still don't understand I won't explain any more in reply to your silly questions.  Good luck

Actually you accuse of having issues with Tyrone GAA, you obviously haven't read my posts so until you do perhaps you should seek some counselling for your persecution complex.
