Monaghan have been stripped of home advantage for their National Football League clash with Louth on March 11.
The move is by way of punishment for their part in a brawl which marred their league opener against Meath at Clones.
The Farney county were originally fined €5,000, but on appeal, the fine was replaced by forfeiture of venue for their next home game.
It's a boost to Louth, who will now have one extra home game.
It hasn't always been a bed of roses
