The vast vast majority of negative comment is at Delaney, but sure keep making it about Trappatoni. :rolleyes:

Some truly petty posts.

My thanks to the dignitories who supported the GUFC event at the races on Tuesday. We're on a survival knife edge & people, many of whom have never been to Terryland stumped up big time, to try to give us a dig out. My thanks to them. Without them I wouldn't have a league of Ireland club to support.

Incidentally, the Irish team manager may be very well paid, but he left a very sick wife at home to honour his committment to GUFC.

Thank you Gio & I hope your command of the English language is sufficiently poor that you are spared the never ending negativity we are subjected to here.

I cant believe people are not blaming Galway United for this whole fiasco, clearly they are at fault for holding the event on the night. They should have anticipated the possible clash on the calendar and selected another day to have the event. The organising committee should all be shot at dawn :eek::p

I can't believe such pettiness has made it to 5 pages. I haven't actually seen 1 Drogheda fan complain. Some of you ought to catch a grip of yourselves :D

this thread truly is pathetic regarding the sniping at Delaney - in my opinion he did absolutely the right thing in honouring his previous promise to attend this event.

The reaction of some of the posters here reminds me of this...

No it wouldn't have been better for the CEO to break a prior commitment to a club who are on the verge of going out of business. That would leave him with a credibility issue, and would not go down well with sponsors etc.

Quote:

As above - Drogs have struggled for sponsorship, so for their credibility in gaining the revenue, yes it could've been

So Delaney should be seen to support the Champions of the El over and above all other clubs, sorry but I don't accept that.

Quote:

Delaney was not guest of honour, so why would Galway have had to refund anyone?

He was an invited guest as was Trap and it was on this basis that a lot of tickets were probably sold, and it is quite feasible that Delaney helped sell some of those tables through his contacts. For him not to honour his commitment would have sent the wrong message to all sponosrs and potential sponsors.

Quote:

Irrelevant, but Delaney's put in such controls on what clubs can say all that it would do is to get them a fine anyway.

Its irrelevant that no Drogs management or supporters are supporting this anti Delaney crusade, mind you I'm sure they would love you to purchase a few tickets to show your REAL support for any of their matches.

Quote:

It's an either or choice? :confused:

Yes

Quote:

Delaney was not guest of honour. I doubt many of the attendee's would've noticed him missing, and anyone at a football fundraiser I would expect to be perfectly understanding that the head of the FAI had to attend "his" champions in European action. Trappatoni was the attraction for the Galway fundraiser, not Delaney.

Shows your complete lack of understanding of how business works.

That would be hilarious. Almost as hilarious as this thread.
