Interesting comments from the Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD on the future of football across the island.
We already enjoy an excellent working relationship with our colleagues in the South, collaborating on a daily basis around youth and the women’s game. His reference to Shared Island funding is also worth exploring, including potential opportunities to work alongside TNIFF.
Any future initiatives must be built on mutual agreement, with clear benefits and commercial sustainability for everyone involved and led by Football.
The question is, are there opportunities to grow the game, create new revenue streams and deliver lasting benefits for clubs, players and supporters.
It’s a conversation I feel we should always be conscious of, keeping an open mind and taking a practical approach⚽️
