A Donegal man battling motor neuron disease has pleaded with the GAA to overturn an eight-week suspension imposed on his local club because it allowed a charity soccer match to be played on one of its pitches.

In February, Naomh Colmcille’s grounds in Newtowncunningham staged a tournament to raise funds to help him cope with the illness, though GAA permission for the event had already been refused.

He joins Newstalk Breakfast now to air his frustrations.
