McGuinness plays hardball with Dundalk
It has being reported yesterday on Dundalk FC that following “confusion over the start date of players receiving their first week’s wages” which was then resolved the Star reported on behalf of the PFAI a misleading article where the PFAI “came riding in on a white horse to save the day”.
In a statement Gerry Matthews said “The PFAI are doing their members a disservice by playing games in the media in an attempt to undermine us. The PFAI have now forced me to speak publicly on this issue as I must defend the name of Dundalk FC to our supporters, players and sponsors. I believe that such comments from the PFAI damage our standing in the community along with potential and existing sponsors and cause anxiety with our fans. If Mr. McGuinness and the PFAI think they can bully or intimidate me or Dundalk FC, they are very much mistaken. I am in consultation with our solicitors with a view to possible further action.”
He noted ” I am also upset that Fran Gavin also spoke to our manager instead of contacting us directly.”
