FWA Q&A: MIGUEL DELANEY
MIGUEL DELANEY on super Spain...awesome Ajax...and magnificent McIlvaneyHave you ever worked in a profession other than football?
Sort of, but not really. I was lucky enough to go straight out of university into a job on the sports desk of the now sadly-defunct Irish paper, the Sunday Tribune. And, although they tried to inflict other sports on me that I never had any real interest in, I was always leaning towards football!
