The war of words between Colin Healy and Marc Canham over an alleged broken promise is set to escalate after the former Ireland assistant manager lodged a complaint with the FAI’s HR director.

Former Ireland midfielder Colin Healy was released as assistant manager, along with boss Eileen Gleeson, eight days after Ireland’s Euro playoff defeat to Wales on December 3.
