VERA PAUW HAS echoed her strong rebuttal of all allegations made against her in the recent NWSL/NWSLPA report, and says she is looking into legal action.
Asked later by The42 if she believes there is no wrongdoing from her point of view, Pauw said: “I cannot recall anything. “First of all, I did not know what I was accused of so I decided to tell how I experienced the NWSL, from the Draft to every single thing because there are so many things wrong with the NWSL.”She quoted directly from her letter “about this part that they eventually accused me of”.
“Now I read that I’ve said to this player that she has lost weight. I don’t even know if she had lost weight, I don’t care if she’s lost weight or gained weight, I only care about the execution of tasks, like the same here in Ireland.“Then they said, ‘We couldn’t do our weightlifting programme’. That is right, I advised them not to do weightlifting. I don’t know whether they followed that but I advised them not to do weightlifting.
“Every time that that came up, I said – and I’d quote the player – ‘As this player said, you call it bulky’. Pauw, who has been Ireland manager since September 2019 and has steered the women’s national team to their first-ever major tournament in next summer’s World Cup, met with FAI CEO Jonathan Hill in the wake of last night’s AGM and has also spoken to Irish players amidst end-of-year meetings.
