Sort of on topic -

Stick with this , some job done on Trump by Obama and his team - was pay back for questioning his Nationality.

Brilliant

Great writing, and fair play Obama with his timing. He knew he was going too far (for a president), but what Trump did , sort of sums the man up.

Anyway. Sorry for detour.

Was great if depressing viewing. It certainly would put you off ever wanting to play the course.

Even my wife, who would rather stick pins in her eyes than watch golf was getting passionate watching this.

Whatever about dodgy land deals, etc... the whole atmosphere with the local police was certainly the most disturbing aspect of the situation.

I have the recorder set for this tonight and cant wait to watch it tomorrow.

I haven't watched it yet and I'll miss it tonight but you can order it from here. Available in November.

Comes across as an absolute wanker, Trump.

Paul O'Connor came across as a massive one too --is that camera expensive?:mad:

Stay classy Paul

Agreed, but in fairness to him he ended up falling out with Trump after Trump demanded that he build big mounds of soil behind houses. O'Connor apparently refused and we saw last night how Trump deals with other people's opinions. Think he took Trump to court for unfair dismissal.

Fair play to him.

Hard when a camera is put in your face like that for the first time in your life.

Except BBC2 Northern Ireland!! :mad:

Not sure if its kosher posting this link but it should be useful given the digital switchover.

filmon.com

Its basically a live streaming site of the main UK FTA channels, including the non Northern Ireland BBC2.

not hard at all, an excuse me please would do fine, not to come out with idle threats. And it took him a year to realise dump is a complete stain .

Recorded it and watched it last night, very well edited and extrememly frustrating viewing, frustration on behalf of the local but also it was (as expected) very one sided, it was all doom and gloom with not a single person apart from Trump wanting the course there.
Bottom line is no development of that magnitude will birth without a level of unease from some stakeholder.
Don't get me wrong, Trumps antics are unforgivable, the police in particular.
I was disappointed at the Irish lad's involvement but there was no need to leave in the comment about the price of the camera equipment, it was left in alluding to intimidation/something could happen that expensive stuff etc.
Pleased just to read this thread and read about him eventually leaving due to the very sad creations of mounds of earth around folks homes, just a demonsatation that it was all one sided as the guy left in November 2010 which could easily have been incoroprated into the film.
Not a balanced view and no debate without both sides of the argument being transparant is truly acceptable.
I won't be playing it because it's too expensive and I'm not going to get on moral ground to make my decision.
All a shame really, but I don't expect Trump will lose an ounce of sleep and I have to say the photos from the other thread (setting aside the film) make it look stunning, stunning indeed...

Would be really good for the World Golfing Federation (if such a body is called that) to make an announcement on stuff like this. That the environment is more important than nice scenery to chase after a ball in. There are plenty of tracts of land that would benefit from landscaping without destorying the last remmnants of coastal havens like this.
I'm a huge fan of golf, but not at this expense. Trump should be ashamed of himself but more importantly, the people who let this happen (the Scottish government and planners) should be more ashamed and hounded out of their offices.

Agreed that this was one sided in the extreme - I'm a member of several UK golf forums where local people have stated there was plenty of local support for the project particularly due to the jobs created.....but then this wouldn't have made a good documentary.....

The Guardian · 25-02-2013 4:25pm

If I got a few free rounds there I'm sure I could be convinced that Trump is a good honest business man.

The Guardian · 27-02-2013 9:06am

watched this last night
thanks snowdrifts

trump just being trump as far as i could see - no surprises there
the man has little class, indeed his entire family dont

what is really disappointing is the role assumed by the the scottish govt
they completely sold out to trump

not completely clear what is the position on the environmental damage - seems to have completely overhauled a natural habitat and dunes system. which is a shame obviously. i'm not sure if any environmental grps gave the green light here. appears not. golf and the local ecosystems and co exist btw. plenty examples worldwide. suspect this compromise wasnt gonna be offered by donald tho.

local guys are portrayed as redneck simpletons when it suits the documentary maker. he could have done better than this i'm sure.
