If we are honest until JD let those very lads down he was untouchable. As I see it it only started after Scotland away that lads said enough is enough and went very public with it.



Still lads out there who love him........luckily more hate him.

JOHN DELANEY IS expected to leave the Football Association of Ireland, The42 understands, and an announcement confirming so may be made as early as tonight.

Hopefully the 'revelations' in tomorrow's papers is enough to clear out a lot more of them.

Question is what they have........is it about JD personally or is it enough to take them all down.

Well Delaney, Cody and Murray isn't enough so hopefully. Cody was leaving next year and Murray was leaving in 2021 anyways due to the term limits agreed at the EGM in February.

Mr.Crinklewood

If he leaves Delaney will be announced as the next pope in the morning...

This will also scupper his role in UEFA

Himself and Dots are clearing their desks in Abbotstown. Then both are charged with carrying JDs boxes and evidence to his car for removal before something is found.

Sad how cheap some people are.

Irishmale0399

I can't wait. I can't fúcking wait.

They always cheat

Be a sad day if he does leave. Mob mentality winning the day.

Unless of course substantial wrongdpings have been proven that we're not privy to.

But if not, then i fear this is a kneejerk reaction to appease a few noisy empty vessels.

If they had nothing to hide...
1. Why did they hide behind consultants??
2. Why did JD hide behind legal advice and not put everything on the table??

3. Why cant they explain what happened with the 100,000, how the situation came about?? Surely 1 of them knows the truth as this point, as he wrote the cheque.
4. You got no files to destroy before the next press release??

Will they announce it late tonight to miss the Sunday Papers or was it a meeting to hide and destroy before papers report something tomorrow??

I hear a lot of good about Delaney from any small clubs I have been to, but why is he hiding.

But that’s the problem in this country in politics and stuff like this. Are those clubs saying Delaney is okay because of what he’s done for the game in the country or because he did something for them specifically.

I’ve heard Waterford fans, the same ones who decry politics in this country as parish pump, say Delaney is great because of what he’s done for local clubs. So many people in this country are susceptible to gombeenism.

For me, I was willing to give Delaney a chance but his position became very difficult on Wednesday. That’s unfortunate because nothings really been proven against him but he hasn’t helped himself.

Finally, since he came into power, he’s run the FAI as a dictator. No dissenting voices were allowed in the FAI, the media or the LOI. Hearing Mark Tighe describe how Delaney tried bullying him made Delaneys position more untenable in my view.

You have to admire him in away that he got away with it for 15 years but it was always going to end this way. I suspect there will be a lot more to come out too.

The skeletons in the closet of the FAI would make Glasnevin blush

He has played the well worn path of making people think he is doing them a favour.Coming to the club with a cheque for a pitch/dressing rooms etc .Presses the flesh and makes them all feel like he is their best mate.Classic politician routine.

In reality all he is doing his job but makes sure he is centre of it and will get the backing when votes are needed or his back is against the wall.Its government money he is using for most of these grants.

He is Blatter lite.

osarusan

A good day for Irish football if this is true.

But he has surrounded himself with so many similar snouts-in-the-trough yes men that I wonder how much things will change overall.

But at least the publicity over this whoever takes the job will know they won't be able to go under the radar for as long as Delaney did.

I would prefer a complete outsider to come in and effectively gut the place.

NIMAN

He was a master empire-builder.

Hopefully the foundations are starting to crumble and the whole charade is going to come crashing down.
