VIDEO: Armagh player pushes Donegal official on his backside, gets away with it

Aaron Findon has no respect for a man in civvies.

WHAT WILL THE English crowd think of us, now?

Sky audiences were treated to a proper GAA shemozzle earlier with this incident the undoubted high/lowlight.

Armaghโ€™s Aaron Findon knocked a member of the Donegal medical staff on his backside before he legged it for the sideline. The ref did think it was a yellow and Findon has since been replaced.

    The doctor ran 50 yards to get into a scuffle. If your going in like a hard man you better have an escape route planned

    He was breaking it up, not โ€œgoing in like a tough manโ€. Shouldnโ€™t have been in there, but itโ€™s not as if he was squaring up to lads.

    Armagh players were involved in a brawl during the pre-match parade earlier this summer. Because of how that was reported, they have refused to speak to the media since. And now this, pushing a doctor. Outrageous. Theyโ€™re not a likeable bunch at all. Iโ€™m glad they got knocked out by Donegal.

    3 points:
    1) What was the doctor doing getting involved in a brawl โ€“ after the brawl he ran the whole way back to the subs bench without even looking at a Donegal player.

    2) You canโ€™t see from this video but the doctor was pushing at Findon in the face beforehand, so it was more of a reaction than an unprovoked push. If you stick your finger in someones mouth you should expect it to be bit?

    3) The media ban was in reaction to unfair commentary .i.e. various journoโ€™s reported that Armagh planned the brawl vs Cavan and that Armagh attacked Marty Dunne because he had to go off injured after it. Later video evidence proved that Cavan in fact ran into Armagh starting the brawl and that Dunne broke his hand by punching an Armagh player who was on the ground. Rather than reversing their view the media reacted by keeping up this unfair perception that Armagh are bully boys. Theyโ€™re not completely innocent but it gets blown out of proportion a lot.
