Is it not a little odd that Fagan was in the squad despite being without a squad since september and Keith Treacy a player getting the odd game in the premier league cant get picked because af the petulance of a petty power manager like Givens

McCann, who has a real claim to a place in the senior squad, is not selected either because of Givens man management. I have never heard of any manager to fall out with so many players over the years. Off hand I can think of Connolly, Foran, Stokes, Garvan, McCann and now Treacy.

I'd go along with this. He must possess some dangerous or embarrasing information. This is probably backed up with some hard evidence such as photos or something in written form, such as letters or bank statements.

Anyone remember the furore over the critical article on him in the short-lived Ireland fanzine? The FAI kicked up holy hell over it.
