Kerr lawyers question FAI

BRIAN KERR’S lawyers have written to the FAI in response to comments made by the association’s chief executive John Delaney in a newspaper interview.

Kerr is said to be seeking redress for what is claimed to be a “clear and deliberate breach of a legal agreement” made between the former Republic of Ireland manager and the FAI.

Amongst other things, Delaney is reported to have said the fear factor for teams visiting Lansdowne Road disappeared under Kerr and he found interesting Damien Duff’s comment that Ireland had played “like a pub team” during the World Cup qualifier in Cyprus.
