Brian McLaughlin is an Irish former Gaelic footballer who played for St Michael's and the Donegal county team.
He won the 1995 All-Ireland Vocational Schools Championship.[1]
During the 2004 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, he and Eamon McGee were suspended from the Donegal panel for a breach of discipline.[2] The BBC reported that the pair had arrived for a "training session in an unfit condition" on two consecutive nights, one month after failing to turn up for one session at all.[3]
McLaughlin's club have not had much success at senior level. They reached the final of the 2011 Donegal Senior Football Championship—their first ever senior final—but lost.[4][5]
Previously, in 2004, they reached the final of All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football Championship, in which McLaughlin scored two points (including one free).[6]
