Board was not told about loan for almost two years

The board of the Football Association of Ireland was not told for almost two years of the €100,000 interest-free loan from its former CEO John Delaney, it has been confirmed.
At a tense and somewhat farcical hearing of the Oireachtas committee on transport and sport, TDs and senators were told that, in April 2017, an immediate cash flow issue arose which needed to be resolved “within a matter of a few hours”.
