Raymond Sweeney is an Irish former Gaelic footballer who played for An Clochán Liath and the Donegal county team.
He started the first game of Brian McEniff's last spell as Donegal manager, a league defeat to Galway in Tuam in February 2003.
[1] Sweeney was sent off in Donegal's 2003 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship semi-final against Armagh at Croke Park, in an incident later described as "one of the great injustices in Donegal football" history.
[2][3][4] He had also started Mickey Moran's first game in charge of Donegal, a league win at home to Offaly in October 2000.
He missed Donegal's National Football League in 2007 after leaving the squad at the end of the previous season due to a disagreement with the then manager Brian McIver.
