'How can you defend yourself against a lie?' - Vera Pauw refutes fresh US allegations

VERA PAUW HAS issued another firm rebuttal of allegations of misconduct made against her as she prepares to lead Ireland to the 2023 Women’s World Cup.

Pauw denies all wrongdoing, refuting “every allegation made against me from my time at Houston Dash” and has been publicly backed by the FAI to date. The 60-year-old refutes fresh accusations that she was “physically aggressive” and other “abusive” methods. “It’s a lot of external noise but our full focus is on the next few weeks and keeping together as a group. The timing of the release of the article, it is what it is. It’s obviously frustrating because this is such a massive time in Ireland for women’s football.”Asked if the group fully supports Pauw, McCabe said:

“I can’t answer for each and every player. Of course Vera has a style of management that we’re used to now over the last two years. It’s something we’ve worked together, we’ve argued with each other of course. You’re never going to get on 100% with your manager at times. She pushes me and I push her.

“They said, no, you are direct, but it is clear and honest. No, never. That’s the senior players, including Katie. If that is said to me, then yeah. I don’t want to go into those details because it is such incredible nonsense.”
