Fran and folly in another fine mess for FAI

ACCORDING to some reports, the Fran Rooney era ended with an agreement struck at night in a car park.

It's appropriate another FAI bloodbath reaches its conclusion in a style and setting befitting 'The Sopranos'.

Of course, once the deed was done, it was quickly followed by honeyed words. FAI President Milo Corcoran, formerly Rooney's backer, but more recently an outspoken opponent, thanked the outgoing CEO for his contribution during his brief 18 months in the job and wished him well for the future.
