A tad unfair??? He was offered a set fee and refused it cause him being a financial genius knew best and look at the state of the game in Ireland as a result ffs If a bank manager's choices resulted in the consequences his FAILure did then they'd be sacked on the spot, but not Johnny...
bank managers took far worse decisions and I don't recall any getting fired. Hindsight is great but did you predict the crash?

A crafty sod, for doing his job, will ya stop.
The reason we are up to out eyes in stadium debt in the first place is cause the 'crafty sod' screwed up at the start when selling the tickets and packages.

Tinfoil hat here, but I wonder could the unusual timing of the O'Neill/Keane unofficial contract extension announcement part of the same smoke screen - you know, make a couple of oddly-timed announcements in close tandem which might engender the assumption that such things are just par for the course with the FAI. In other words, "we do stuff like this; nothing out of the ordinary to see here."

Just a thought...

Maybe the deal is they remortgaged the stadium. They were ringing me yesterday you know looking for business.

Graham Barrett was reasonable and no fine in a far longer and more reaching article. Why do you think Roderick is being fined? Have you even read his piece?

Defo agree there is a whole word of difference between this fine and the fine other leagues / authorities dish out.

In other news, somebody over the winter removed the "John Delaney Out" sticker from my seat in Lansdowne. Outrageous ! Will have to get a new supply  !

There is a standardised managers contract which clearly lays out the disrepute and media piece.
 
You would swear the FAI are the only sports body who have ever fined a lippy manager.

And he has signed a contract to state he wouldn't. Roddy has done more damage to Irish football than 1000 Delaney's. Roddy has been out of the spotlight recently, so Roddy writes a rambling article knowing he will get lagged so he can be the victim. Spare us.

That said, the FAI should just ignore the weasel.


When did he sign this contract?
I am not sure he signed anything and I have been told he didn't
Will confirm either way today hopefully

I strongly doubt Delaney micro manages the FAI to the point of fines.
 
Long and short of it, Roddy is a cancer on football and anyone who thinks he is some sort of visionary who is taking a stand against the man has bought right into it.


Go way outta that Rovers, who's less likely to be a chancer JD or RC??? Say what you want about his managerial record, Collins is fairly straight when it comes to bread and butter issues. He's hardly putting himself at risk of reputational damage being manager of Waterford while firing his arrows towards Abbotstown. People have been saying all that he said for 20+ years now and very little changes Confused
