The key message is to continue an emotional attachment to a pointless activity, whilst keeping people asleep.

Why did a former Irish media oligarch, function as the main backer of Delboy, whilst the dogs in the street knew of the party?
Spectator sports ARE the problem.
I no longer watch them. I am free of that rubbish.
Pass it on.
FAI
Fool am I ( for paying for it)
Fans Are Idiots
Flying Around for an Inflatable ( at great cost)
Find Another Irishman
Find Another Italian
Fund Another Incompetent
Finances Are Invisible
F*(4 @11 intelligence
Not for me, any more. I am done with the FAI, the Grab All Association, The pumped up peanut passers, etc….
The Delaney era for the FAI was generally great. Great days. Qualified for all the major tournaments. We ran out of money when we stopped qualifying for tournaments. Of course it's easy for the mob to dump on Delaney now. It's like back in the days of Rome. Irish football is all about qualifying for major tournaments. If we don't do that we are at nothing.
The league of Ireland was destroyed under his reign.
Oh Ireland and its tribunals.. Flood.. Garda corruption with whistle blowers… Irish people are too accepting of corruption.
Shud of been a total clearout. And let the people vote in who they want to run it id have quinny still there and brian kerr involved
Niall you didn't need to bring experts in to tell you the fai is seen as a jokeshop in Ireland.
When Quinn was appointed interim CEO I was hopeful. Since he left and they shipped in people from the equally corrupt Olympic council to the board and kept the old guard. I gave up. FAI is a joke.
Why didn't you all listen to Roy KEANE in Sipam then Nial instead you all humiliated him for telling the truth shame Love BRIAN KERR a true football man shame on the rest of you
I'm not even going to watch the whole video, but I'm guessing Brian Kerr says something about some player giving another player "a dunt"..
The Delaney era was extremely damaging to Irish Football. The lack of inward investment in our own league really is disgraceful when you hear of the millions pocketed and wasted by this man. There is no justifying it. I think its evidently clear now the national side is not what it was and if there was ever a time to focus and invest local clubs its now.
I will never watch or support the Irish football team until John Deleaney is in jail. He is a thief, pure and simple. Same for anyone at board level who did nothing to stop them, the whole point of a board is to take responsibility in a devolved manner. If they were too spineless to do anything they are not board material, and or were involved in the whole charade. Anyone still around at that level needs to go, probably the next management level also.
Delaney ran the FAI like a putin regime , no one asked questions and those that did were moved on .usual story walk away with big payoff rewarded for his failure .
Don't remember him saying anything about it when he was getting paid off
Brian kerr managed Ireland ๐ฎ๐ช under delaneys regime. Should have spoke out then.
Hopefully Delaney gets some jail time.
But this is Ireland ๐ฎ๐ช so no chance.
Just like Fitzpatrick
Oh,as a Nordie who listened to the defence of the man when he sang provo songs how the karma makes me laugh.If I were a southern fan,listening to Quinn talk about the "brand" I would want to vomit.
You went along with all of it Niel but really believe BRIAB KERR IS A TRUE FOOTBALL MAN
Hated Keane when he was playing for Manchester United but donโt get me wrong, he was a winner & had a hunger to succeed. Whilst I hated him, I respected him too. Iโm not an Irish football fan by any means but he was right all along. He was portrayed as the pantomime villain for Saipan but he was spot-on. Delaney was a bent fucker who stole money from the development of Irish football to fill his pockets. He manipulated the fans by getting them rounds during the the games rather than making a statement for Irish football & investing into the football clubs. McCarthy was effectively his yes man & Keane exposed that. Maybe he should have gritted his teeth & played at Japan/South Korea 2002, but the damage was done with those 2 crooks Delaney & McCarthy.
All these people knew but all took the coin. Modern football in a nutshell.
As Pat Dolan said years ago, the FAI needs to be cleaned out from the CEO right down to the tea lady in the canteen. Rotten corporate culture to the core. Multiple levels of management whose only skill is to delegate. It's rampant in Irish culture in general unfortunately.
Shocking how Brian Kerr was treated. He was a man willing to put his heart and soul in to Irish football and he was thrown aside by snakes and traitors.

Debit Delaney ๐ณ๐ถ๐ถ๐ถ
We need to start from grassroots up look at what irish rugby has done and copy i went to a rugby school and 70% of us where into football yet no school football team and the football team we could of had would of been ten times better than our rugby team. Get goal poast and 2 blokes of the dole get them there bages into ever school in ireland set up a proper schools leauge with a schools cups and lets try get a reliable source of home grown players it would cost fuck all and give us some chance later down road
Niall sided with Mick in Saipan didnt he??
How Delaney walked away with a load of money ๐ฐ. is an absolute disgrace
Gangsters everywhere in this country church, financial sector, political field ๐
Good man Brian,keep walloping Delaney the
Deep Vein thrombosis of Irish Football.
