Slieverue sports writer says better accountability needed at FAI

Sports writer David Walsh says there needs to be better accountability at the FAI.

It comes as a Dail committee looks set to call in Chief Executive John Delaney over the accounts at the Irish footballing body.

It comes in light of last weeks revelations about a 5 million euro payment made to the FAI by FIFA in the wake of Thierry Henry’s handball in a World Cup qualifier between Ireland and France in 2009.

Slieverue man Walsh says the FAI has to be more transparent.
