Pauw has issued a statement, claiming she was undermined by FAI executives during the World Cup.
Gavin Cooney VERA PAUW HAS spoken for the first time since the FAI decided not to renew her her contract as Ireland manager, claiming the the Association’s review of the World Cup that led to her exit was “flawed” and with a “pre-determined outcome.”
She says her views were often “disregarded and not respected”, saying “in my opinion, no head coach in the world would accept interference.” While we had hoped for better results on the pitch in Australia, even when faced with our biggest opponents, we demonstrated our growth and our ability to compete at the world’s highest level. As an elite coach, losing never sits well with me, but the immense support and congratulations that I have received on our campaign coming from all over the world will have a long-lasting influence on me.
I am conscious that there has been a lot of noise in recent times around my contract and I believe I should make some brief comment. Following the article which appeared in The Athletic at the start of July, which included allegations I absolutely refute, I believe the FAI made some major mistakes by directly overruling the tasks of the coach.
