John Delaney/ tugging off half the forum

Incredible isnā€™t it?

Numbers out of context mean nothing.

Delaney should have the chance to explain what this expenditure was on.

The CEO of the FAI staying in a decent hotel is hardly shocking.

Dela may even have paid back the personal stuff.

Imagine an organisation that donā€™t give their employees fuel cards

No leader of such organisations or owners of businesses use fuel cards, ffs.

Eh, yeah they do. Itā€™s called good governance

  1. Doubtful
  2. Iā€™d love to see how long they last in a job where theyā€™ve spent four hundred odd in duty free on the company card without clearing it first.

Its hardly a crime for a CEO of JDs stature to be well dressed, well rested and well fed while carrying out his duties

Ah lovely. Oireland.

Or donā€™t become detached from reality.
I know lads are ball hopping left and right, but what he has done with that card is an utter disgrace.

We donā€™t know it wasnā€™t cleared first. All weā€™re getting is sensationalist biased news with a clear motive to to get at Delaney.

In my opinion, Delaney is a cunt but the reporting of this has been an absolute disgrace. Equally Delaneyā€™s effort last week was an absolute disgrace.

Iā€™ve seen the workings of loads of Mickey Mouse operations as a result of my photo copying gig and that sort of credit card spend is not that off the wall but the context is sorely missing.

Hear hear

Exactly. Itā€™s off the wall no matter what. Even if it was ā€œclearedā€ by his organisation, its disgusting. Delaney is Haughey with none of the (considerable) upsides. Kiss a few babies to keep the plebs happy, whilst the gravy train rolls on.
Itā€™s not his money, and lads messing the keyboard over him buying a few pints. Guess where he got the cash?
He is a weasel who has had the remarkably good fortune to run a relatively tiny organisation powered mainly by goodwill and volunteers, which happened to have a golden goose by way of television rights and profile off the back of a string of English mercenaries.
Itā€™s no wonder o brien pulled the funding.
Uefa is the right place for John Delaney, with someone else picking up the tab.

The scandal was in 2016ā€¦

The FAI would have a serious amount of professional fees so interesting that they have honed in on ā‚¬60k.

Irish football has seriously regressed under this guys tenure. How much is he paid in comparison to other football ceos?

I wonder what the explanation for spending ā‚¬91 euro on the company credit card on Cath Kidston goods is cc @carryharry?
