Damien Duff: 'I stand with Colin Healy — that’s all I want to say on the matter'

'I don’t say that about many people. He’s just a class, class guy and has been let down a few times over his career - back in the day with the World Cup and Saipan.'

Damien Duff insists he stands with his former teammate Colin Healy, agreeing that the Corkman has been mistreated by the FAI.

Healy recently revealed he’d been assured of continuity in his role as assistant manager of the Ireland women’s team before himself and Eileen Gleeson were relieved of their duties eight days after the Euro playoff defeat to Wales in December.
