The suspensions subsequently handed down by the governing body, (i.e. TSDL in this case), are served in whatever games are due to be played next. Therefore, the suspensions will involve F.A.I cup games and Munster Junior Cup games if they are due to be played in their next three competitive games. There is the right of appeal to Munster Football Association and F.A.i and the players can play while under appeal.
