You stated the LOI had no input in the National Team. Look at our squads lately, more and more players that came through LOI are in it .

You were proved wrong and came back with Mighty Gibraltar, tho! What has that got to do with anything ?

Hotblack Desiato

"Came through" as in ex, not current LOI players, is irrelevant.

So do you think the likes of Coleman wouldn't be in the squad if it wasn't Gibraltar?

So these boys only turned good when they got on the magic plane? The training/games they got whilst playing LOI had nothing to do with their development as players?

Jack Byrne is current LOI. Graham Burke was LOI when he scored against the USA last year.

We are gone way off topic

Any chance that banner going the rounds on Twitter will get into the game tomorrow?

Doubt it.... wee Uhu Super Glue will have his agents out identifying the person in possession so that he can personally, unknown to Kim Don Jon of course, do body searches at the entrance to the ground to get it off the terraces.

Apparently there will be a big piece of FAI news post match.

RTE radio 1 mentioned a few tweets about it at HT.

Lots of rumours that this loan has opened a huge can of worms. In fairness, trying to block the story said as much anyway.

Agent Coulson

John to step down as chief executive of the FAI to focus more on his other job on the Executive Committee of UEFA.



Is my guess.


Of course this was always planed and has nothing to do with the news story of the last week

Moving to UEFA was always his exit plan anyway I'd reckon.

GavRedKing

Even if Delaney does go, there'll be another yes man in his place to keep up the status quo.

GavRedKing

The fact he beat so many better placed candidates to make it to the uefa gig was pretty weird too.

FAI statement at 9pm tonight

probably giving himself a new 20 year contract at treble his current wages

Ursus Horribilis

Or give Pat Hickey the gig.

This had better not put an end to any potential proceedings against him. Especially since if this goes quietly you’ll just get another one of his gang taking over.

I hope there is so much more and he has to sing like a bird to avoid being charged. Name everyone in the FAI who were complicit and get them all out.

That’s a lad with like 100 followers who doesn’t appear to be a journalist?

micar

If he resigns, does that mean he's not compelled to go in front of the Joint Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport to offer an explanation.
