Stephen McGuinness - Developing Professional Football In Ireland #23
Description
General Secretary of the PFAI (Professional Footballers Association of Ireland) Stephen McGuinness chats with me about the work he has done with the association over the last two decades.
Giving great insights into the challenging discussions that take place in order to bring in better conditions for Irish professional footballers. Dealing directly with the likes of the FAI, Government bodies and individual football clubs. And the conflicts that can arise from these often “heated” discussions.
Detailing what go’s on in landmark cases such as the Women’s football team’s strike in 2017 and bringing in an appropriate minimum wage structure for players in the League of Ireland.
If you are a passionate Irish football fan, you’ll thoroughly enjoy this “behind the scenes” insight into the business of Irish football.
