There really is no nonsense taken by the Dublin county board.
Earlier this week they put Kevin's out of all competitions until they named a member who assaulted a referee in a recent game.
The club was fined €5,000, €3,000 of which they can get back with good behaviour.
No messing around there and hey presto the club has now identified the member who committed the assault.
Decisive action like this certainly reaps rewards and the man at the centre of the allegations now also faces a two-year ban.
If he is guilty he is good value for it.
Let's face it everyone has had cause to give it in the neck to the referee at sometime or another but these guys are doing it for the love of the game and get nothing in return but abuse.
They do not deserve to be assaulted by anyone no matter how poor they have been and it is great to see a county board acting decisively to ensure that their young referees are protected and they know it.
And may Kevin's enjoy the rest of the year's games!
