The point is that the FAI was effectively John Delaney.

John Delaney decided that the FAI would pay for John Delaney’s 50th birthday party.

What a joke, and he was earning 30k a month and the FAI going under water.......

I know it’s hindsight but that mick McCarthy answer should have been a clue.

Indeed, charities come to mind, getting money from government and tax free donations, no governance and rife with people lining their pockets.

100% plenty more examples like what happened with Console out there...

The eejit has the dress sense of a clown. Some of the suits and coats he’s worn down the years beggars belief.

I’d bet they weren’t bought in Dunnes either

The charity industry is a monumental waste of money. How many homelessness charities are there in Dublin ? Each with a CEO, a CFO, office space, clerical staff, etc...

So much money he could choose to be different, that stuff wasn't cheap at all.

How many more are out there like this.

A pair of eijits in blatter and Delaney.

The 33rd team at the World Cup. Total cringe!!!

Jesus he was some piece of work. I know Brian Kerr compared him to trump and that shafting of the SFA CEO is very trump like.

Grandeeod

Recording it. I couldn't watch it before bed. I wouldn't sleep after watching all the prick's crap over the years and his father before him.

If Tighe didn't get that letter God knows how much longer he'd spend running it into the ground.

He’d still be there.

Oh this oireachtas hearing was an utter farce.

Why are we, the taxpayers of Ireland supporting this corrupt ****show? The soccer squad are crap, the FAI are a disgrace, disband it to hell, and be done with it all # defundfai

Itssoeasy

A treasurer of an organisation not knowing how many bank accounts they have. Feck sake. There’s healy Rae.

KaneToad

Healy Rae showing his true colours again...
Followed swiftly by another Kerry gombeen saying how great Delaney was for Kerry🙄

Oh well once you can’t complain that’s alright then.

Very revealing about Denis O Brien in my opinion that he thinks John Delaney is a good businessman.

Treasurer was absolutely clueless.

Indeed. Although one must be careful about what one says about DOB, even on an internet forum.

Mr.Nice Guy

That Healy-Rae fawning was cringeworthy then and even more so now.

That's John O'Regan. Secretary and Joint Treasurer of the Kerry District League and not a brain in his head.

Embarrassing.

But a very apt summation of the character of the man (Healy Rae, that is).

Mervyn Skidmore

The FAI should have been left to go bust. Complete and total clear out and start again. If that meant being kicked out of FIFA for a couple of campaigns then so be it. It also may have led to an all island team.

I thought it odd that he presumably knows the full story now, and was aware of the intention of the documentary makers, yet still chose to praise Delaney. Maybe it was selective editing.

Macdarack

Did the program leave out the bit after his resignation that he'd continued as a executive advisor or some shiit.

ChikiChiki

The book is a great read. Has a lot more detail.

And making lots of money according to his auld fella. Almost a Fcuk you to the FAI.

Apparently he is doing some management consulting work there. No doubt bluffing away.

How many of the elite in this country ever get what they deserve after being found out as corrupt?. I could count on one hand with room to spare. Slap on the wrist and here's a big payoff and lucrative pension as you laugh your way to a luxury retirement.
