All Hail John Delaney

Delaney no longer welcomed in Kerry.

Michael Healy-Rae apologises for supporting John Delaney during 2019 Oireachtas appearance https://jrnl.ie/5262268

Or he could have discovered gold under the office in Abbotstown or won the Euromillions l.

Bottom line, his mismanaged them into a financial home and lined his own pockets at the expense of the domestic game.

His legacy is world class facilities around the country, the aviva stadium and delivering Euro 2020 to Dublin.

He should get the freedom of Dublin.

I wouldn’t be shocked if Delaney was top dog in man united once dickEdward Woodward moves on.

I’d be amazed.

Hopefully he’ll be out of jail in time to take advantage of the opportunity

Very quick edit there in fairness.

Thanks mate.

Your secret is safe with me. :wink:

Well no, again, there was a defined exit path that he could see based on upcoming cash inflows.

That’s why he made his contract the way he did and made 2020 the year. He easily could have extended it beyond then and relieve cash.

I’m not arguing about his financial management or the morals of what he did, I am just stating what his “way out” was in his head.

Delivering Aviva Stadium for Irish football is possibly his crowing achievement alright.

You believe in Angels as well don’t you?

Don’t forget the 5 million for the Henry handball.

They saw in Dela what they could never be themselves.

You’re a thundering eejit

The grassroots would be dead by now without Dela’s passion and enthusiasm.

They’re probably all Trump fans as well. Bad week for them.
