Minister for sport says it the FAI goes, the League of Ireland will probably go as well. The league were one of the few to complain regularly about the governance of the FAI and we're going to be shafted. Meanwhile, the underage and junior leagues, who were uncritical of Delaney are to be looked after.
There'll be little support from the general football public until they discover that no domestic league means no national team either.

The League merged with the FAI during the 90s, we were promised the sun, moon and stars but were basically treated like crap for most of the time.
Back in the 80s, I knew an elderly supporter who wouldn't support the Republic of Ireland,he'd always say the IFA was the proper association. Surprisingly enough, he was an IRA man during the war of independence and the civil war.

That’s very true. I did hear Garcia’s deconstruction of the financials the other day. Listening from an accountant’s perspective I couldn’t see an alternative to winding the whole thing up and starting again, with liability pursuing the directors and former directors outside the corporate shell. I realise none of that helps the rest of Irish football one iota.
Anyway - and not being sarky cos I’m not like that - I’m happy to be enlightened.

The FAI is a company limited by guarantee which was a type of entity brought in to effect in 2014 for charities and non profit organisations. Directors are more insulated than a normal company but the book can still be thrown at them if they act dishonestly or fraudently (not that anyone is saying that is the case with the FAI). https://www.companyformations.ie/com...-by-guarantee/ - jist of it here. Google company limited by guarantee and open the McCann Fitzgerald pdf if you want more technical detail.
Only thing stopping it from being wound up is that it would crystallise a whole load of bad stuff. Letting it keep going keeps alive the hope of a bailout. I'm surprised that they found people who make a living from board directorships to go on the board. Wouldn't take much for them to lose their other sinecures as a result of this.Last edited by Ek weet nie; 23-01-2020, 22:50.
