    Cardiff University pulls the plug on Gerald Walsh

    I see that Cardiff University has decided to terminate their relationship with Gerald Walsh to fund their prestigious chair in public health which was worth £2.5 million a year.

    But the university has now said it has terminated the contract and is reviewing the way future posts are funded.
    The university will now fund it by its own means.

    Gerald Walsh was unavailable for comment.

    I wonder what he did to Cardiff University that not only led them to terminate their agreement with Walsh but review all other funding aspects? Is there no end to the mans talent?

    For the sake of anyone else who has the misfortune to cross the guys path i hope there is an end. He is on parr with the Bermuda Triangle at this stage with the amount of disasters, you can only pity any other person that has to endure him.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    It's almost like someone had emailed the trustees of Cardiff University, some of whom are politicians [cc:ing the Media in Cardiff] asking them why they took money from a convicted fraudster who according to court transcripts threatened the lives of a woman and her children by claiming he had connections in the IRA he could call upon.

    Oh, it couldn't. He was very clear that he didn't want to be tarnished.
    Cork City supporters would be sure to respect his wishes.
