The good of the game was not a driving motivating force at that time.
Delaney did not even have to draw out that long knife
Even by FAI standards, Bernard's behaviour had him delicately poised on the edge of a tall building.

Now we see that rowing in with the plans for Abbotstown was a good move.
We don't know about Eircom pk.
Personally I don't mind a backstabber, if he is on my side and he stays in front.
On the bits of his brief that I notice, Delaney does quite well. He gets on well in UEFA and FIFA. Manages to get €1m out of them for Abbotstown Academy
He is a good focussed driven negotiator and I can see how he gives a good account of himself representing the FAI.
For the first time in the FAI, I have actually witnessed plans for the future, like this Academy, being made and living to see them on the way to being realised.
