Assistant director of football Shane Robinson has called on the game to set aside its differences to implement the new football pathways plan.
Gavin Cooney SHANE ROBINSON, ASSISTANT director of football at the FAI , says the game’s politics are “unbelievable”, choosing to remind everyone that the FAI board and specifically president Paul Cooke have endorsed the Association’s new Football Pathways Plan .
The plan exposed the lack of a consistent approach to football across the country, with some counties and leagues operating summer seasons and others running winter seasons, while not every league has adopted years-old diktats from the FAI around the number of players per team in a match at each underage level.
“The politics within Irish football is unbelievable at the moment”, said Robinson. “No matter where you sit, if you’re in grassroots and you’re putting a whole gameplan together, someone is going to be affected along the way. Robinson said it is “imperative” that everyone buys into the FPP and sticks to it, giving an example of the DDSL’s success in implementing Ruud Dokter’s recommendation of playing 5 v 5, 7 v 7, and 9 v 9 at underage level, linking this with the fact that 15 of the players picked in the most recent Irish U15 squad are from Dublin.
