The Shelbourne boss expressed his deep concerns for the future of Irish football.
SHELBOURNE BOSS Damien Duff says he is “too busy” to meet Ireland manager Heimir Hallgrímsson for a pint or coffee, and has expressed concerns about the future of Irish football.
“Stephen has jumped in and got involved now. I feel as if I’ve been fighting a fight on my own for the last three or four years, I’m sick of seeing the headline ‘Damien says this and slaughters the FAI’ so I’ve said it to the staff, I ain’t speaking, I ain’t going there again. The ex-Blackburn and Chelsea star was reluctant to get into specifics but outlined his broader concerns about the future of Irish football.
“But I’m worried for Irish football. No slant or me having a dig at the FAI. I’m worried, when are we going to qualify for another . Hell knows.
