Some wisecracking football hack left a big, fat envelope for John Delaney at the Aviva Stadium

A few bob

Fair play to the journalistic hero that left this in the Aviva Stadium press room today.

John Delaney and the FAI must be wondering when the whole FIFA €5m ‘loan’ affair will ever blow over.

This afternoon, during Ireland’s 0-0 draw with england, fans of both sides had some witty [and, at times, crass] chants for the association and their chief executive.

Full time brought no respite as this envelope was left behind in the work area for the press.

Whether it was an Irish or English journalist remains to be seen. Whomever it was can take the rest of the evening off.

Hat-tip to Neil O’Riordan of The Sun.
