Feargal Logan is a former Tyrone Gaelic footballer, who was a starting member of the team that reached the 1995 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final.
In recent years his name has become more known in GAA circles for his work as a lawyer, representing players in disciplinary hearings,[1] most famously reducing Ryan McMenamin's suspension in 2005 to allow him to play the crunch quarter final game against Dublin, by pointing out that the Central Disciplinary Committee had no authority to use television footage when considering a player's punishment. This appeal set a precedent that allowed several other players to successfully revoke their suspensions, such as Armagh players, Kieran McKeever and Paul McGrane.[2]
His legal abilities were put to use by the Gaelic Players Association during their early years, as he drafted their articles of association.[3]
