TD questions Delaney’s €100k ‘bridging loan’ to FAI

Why a national sporting body needed a €100,000 bridging loan from its chief executive, when it received in the region of €50m state funding over a 10-year period, is a key question John Delaney must answer when he appears before an Oireachtas committee.

That is according to Robert Troy, Fianna Fáil’s spokesman on transport, tourism, and sport, following weekend revelations that Mr Delaney provided the FAI with a €100,000 cheque in April 2017.
