Pat Hickey. Image: James Crombie/INPHO PAT HICKEY HAS officially resigned from the International Olympic Committee [IOC].
This comes over six years after Hickey self-suspended himself following his arrest amidst a ticketing scandal at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
The astonishing thing is that he was still involved at all, it being almost 2023. What does that say about the culture and decision makers in the IOC? Thank god for honest organisations like FIFA. Retweet this for free match tickets and 5 star accommodation at the WC final!
A serious athlete
thejournal_ie Yeh right!
A disgrace to Ireland
Was he being paid ?
