Antrim hurling manager Davy Fitzgerald has been hit with an eight-week ban by the GAA.
He's been suspended for comments criticising officials following Antrim's defeat to Galway in the Leinster Championship earlier this month.
Fitzgerald had claimed he was 'despised' by a number of referees in the wake of his side's 28-point loss in Salthill.
He was charged for 'misconduct considered to have discredited the association', and the former Clare goalkeeper has the option to appeal the decision.
Antrim were relegated to the Joe McDonagh Cup after they finished bottom of the Leinster hurling championship.
