McKay slams Stevens inquiry

12 April 2012

Willie McKay has revealed he was one of the eight agents who failed to co-operate with Lord Stevens' investigation into alleged illegal payments and has criticised the way the inquiry has been conducted.

Stevens announced the findings of his Quest team's nine-month inquiry into alleged illegal payments on Wednesday, by revealing that 17 transfers - out of 362 - still require further investigation because eight football agents have failed to co-operate.

McKay, however, has admitted he was one of the agents who refused to help Stevens' inquiry and he told the Daily Mirror: "I did not answer the questions on the questionnaire because as far as I am concerned the Football Association already had the information."

He added: "I filled out all of the appropriate forms on all the deals at the time and there has never been any query about this. I have nothing to hide.

"I was very unhappy that my name was constantly appearing in newspaper articles that seem to have leaked from the Quest team.

"It is no way to carry out a so-called investigation."
