John Delaney considers leaving Olympics role saying 'I had absolutely no role in ticketing'

FAI chief John Delaney is considering standing down as a senior Olympics official after a Brazilian judge withdrew a warrant issued for his passport.

In a lengthy statement, the football boss stated he had no role or involvement in the Olympic Council of Ireland's (OCI) handling of tickets for the recent Rio games, which is at the centre of an alleged €2.5m scam.
