John Delaney is the current chief executive of the Football Association of Ireland.
Salary of John Delaney
John Delaney currently earns €430,000 a year.
John Delaney speaking about his salary earlier this year.
Speaking at the FAI's annual general meeting in Ennis, FAI chief executive John Delaney defended his €400,000-a-year salary and claimed that the association's board were opposed to his decision to take a cut on the €450,000-a-year wage he was collecting two years ago.
Delaney promised delegates that the association's substantial debt would be cleared by 2020.
2020! By then John Delaney will have been paid several million in salary.
Question
will John Delaney have to pay back a single cent if any of his empty promises are not met?
John Delaney was placed on the defensive about his considerable pay packet even though he has taken a voluntary pay-cut of €50,000 over the past two years -- a drop of €17,500 in 2010 and another €32,500 this year.
Claiming the other members of the FAI Board of Management were opposed to his reduction in his salary.
"I'm not going to speak of the reasons," said Delaney, when it was put to him that he earns twice as much as the Taoiseach. "The board believes it's justifiable. I work very hard and deliver for the association to the best of my abilities. They didn't want to reduce my salary, which is something I voluntarily did last year and this year.
"It went from €450,000 to €431,000 and it will be around €400,000 now after the latest reduction," continued Delaney, who refused to disclose what portion of the figure relates to his pension contribution.
John Delaney's Credentials for the high profile job?
His Father Joe Delaney was previously a FAI treasurer.
Presumably that fact could not have been a obstacle to John Delaney getting the top job in the same business.
What other qualifications does John Delaney have to be the boss of Irish soccer and receive a huge salary, with a contract rubber stamped until at least 2015.
Does John Delaney have any specific qualifications, skills or experience that got him into the position naturally?
Was John Delaney ever a high profile player, ever a player? Player in Football not chance.
Does John Delaney have any football, management or business skills that made him stand out?
Salary of John Delaney
John Delaney currently earns €430,000 a year.
The Salary received by John Delaney courtesy of the Irish football fans and tax payers.
More than the salary of Enda Kenny who gets only €200,000 for helping to ensure generations of poverty and mass immigration destroy what is left of Irish society.
More than two and a half times the salary of Christy Cooney (reported €158,000) the President of the Gaelic Athletic Association, a sports body that is far more significant in Ireland than the FAI.
Caleb Powell the President of the Irish Rugby Football Union surely gets nothing like the salary of John Delaney.
We know Ireland is run by self interested incompetents, but
The GAA and The IRFU are much better run sports associations.
Does John Delaney deserve his rewards, or is he one of Ireland's most fortunate chancers.

In perspective.
After the Aviva Stadium curtain-raiser, the FAI announced that they had debts of €38 million, and had only sold 6,300 Vantage Club tickets from a projected 10,000. This was at a time when the Chief Executive, John Delaney, earned €430,000, double what 2010 League of Ireland Champions received in prize money. The figure of 6,300 was later questioned by an Irish Independent report which suggested in fact only 4,077 tickets had been sold, with as many as 1,000 of those 4,077 have been allocated to 10-year ticket holders, mainly taken by financial institutions who have not paid for the tickets since the project began
League of Ireland players were offered a net figure of around €300 each and are told there will be no showers for them in the Aviva Stadium after they play in the Dublin Super Cup. The competition John Delaney said would provide an excellent platform to showcase the Airtricity League.
