Dublin senior football manager Ger Brennan has issued a ‘statement of clarification’ through his solicitor in response to comments made by GAA president Jarlath Burns to recent disciplinary incidents.Brennan is currently serving a three-month ban following a clash with Galway’s strength and conditioning coach Cian Breathnach McGinn during a league fixture in March.Donegal manager Jim McGuinness escaped any punishment following his clash with Kerry player Diarmuid O’Connor at half-time of Donegal’s All-Ireland SFC clash against the Kingdom in Killarney last month.Within the lengthy statement of over 900 words, solicitor Conor Sally says Brennan has been personally affected by the controversy and “feels disenfranchised, undervalued and a lack of belonging to the association given the events of the past three months”.Speaking on RTÉ’s Morning Ireland on Tuesday, Burns defended the GAA’s disciplinary system and said the cases were not comparable. “It has only been cast into the spotlight because of another issue that some people maybe are comparing irrationally, if you want to call it that, because you’re not comparing the same thing. As I said, comparison is the thief of contentment.”
