    Is the fellow they threatened to kill the same Willie Moran mentioned here?

    His name is mentioned in the Indo today

    Must have been a spat with the former chums ,maybe Mr moran will get his comupence sometime or other.

    If convicted, the Collopys could get a long sentence over this. Didn't Wayne Dundon get 7 years for something similar?

    Wonder if the trial will go ahead in Limerick with a jury or go before the Special Criminal Court?

    I wonder if the witness will get a bout of amnesia.

    Well, Willie Moran seems to be a fairly hard man himself so if the trial does go ahead it could be very interesting. Was it his son the fellow who killed Jonathan Edwards in 2001?

    I think only the people who were there know what really happened. Crazy how an argument over a dog could escalate like that.

    Did he not get into an argument for kicking a dog and then had to call down his buddy liam keane to fight for him? I had deleted my earlier comment as it was a bit harsh but you were obviously too quick for me

    Harsh is an understatement , his"buddy" as you call him was already with him . Then allegedly there was a comment made about ones father , where one allegedly went away to retrieve a weapon and then returned.

    Jonathan and liam were good friends weren't they? Sorry for the earlier comment as it was posted in haste and i agree with you that its very sad that 2 young men are dead over something so petty.

    getting back on topic Its well known about Willie moran's singing abilities. No surprise that the Collopys fell out with him
