Sport Ireland CEO critical of new FAI letter

Chief Executive of Sport Ireland, John Treacy, has criticised the Football Association of Ireland for still failing to "provide any explanation on the circumstances" of the €100,000 loan from former FAI chief executive John Delaney to the association.

The FAI said it was happy to meet Sport Ireland to review its financial records in relation to State funding. He added: "We will be raising the context of the letter which falls far short of what was expected by Sport Ireland. The letter does not provide any explanation on the circumstances of the loan and its repayment. The board of the FAI has not provided any legitimate reason to why it cannot provide the information requested.

Mr Mulvey said that if the FAI had come to Sport Ireland seeking assistance, the organisation would have looked at the matter. He said: "To that end, Sport Ireland is satisfied that effective control mechanisms and frameworks are in place with regard to our investment in the FAI.
