Marc Canham: ‘We never gave any assurances or guarantees that Colin would get a new contract’
The FAI denies Colin Healy's claims that Marc Canham gave him verbal assurances of a contract renewal as Republic of Ireland women's assistant coach, even if the team failed to qualify for the European Championships. Canham states no guarantees were made and clarifies the process that led to Healy not being re-hired after Ireland's loss to Wales and the subsequent appointment of Carla Ward as head coach. Healy claims he turned down managing Cobh Ramblers due to these alleged assurances. Canham also addressed communication discrepancies regarding Healy's potential future role with the team.
