Last week, Sport Ireland stated that it was aware that the FAI had cashflow difficulties. Now that it has suspended funding, will that have an effect on cashflow? It is only 5% of the overall turnover but could it have an impact? How long can the organisation survive with a suspension of funding? It will have a major impact on grassroots development and the payment of development officers. Is it important to get this issue resolved in weeks or could it take months before the grassroots start crying and calling for heads?
