    Well the fact he's dead from a brutal murder suggests that crime doesn't pay!
    When it comes to organised crime you can choose to die either as a rich man or as an old man. Not both.

    No point being the richest guy in the graveyard!

    Murdered in a hail of bullets is the easy way out!
    The misery they have inflicted on others, doesn't compare!

    amusing account of the funeral in the Indo, some junkie went through the crowd looking for some spare change bud - was asked to show some respect - the irony of it all

    Never miss an opportunity, the brass monkeys. Bet their suppliers looked at them like they were filth, Yet providing for their lifestyle. Who the Fcuk gets a coffin for €20k? 11, 11 limos etc. This was a stupid show that the gardai facilitated, absolute joke.

    I'm not quite sure how the gardai' facilitated' an expensive funeral?
    When did the gardai become the police of purse strings for peoples funerals?

    The problem is 50 convictions free,100 convictions free,200 convictions free.
    AS inda has said its a great country to business in ,yea for drug dealers it is.

    1000 odd people turn up for some lowlifes funeral, and they say crime doesn't pay.

    Well, the manner in which he died would suggest otherwise. These scumbags have plenty of support in this country. That lad is probably consider to be a 'salt of the earth Dub' in certain parts of Dublin.

    At what cost is the tourism industry hit....? Dublin has had its own special update segment on Skynews for the last week..

    It puts Dublin in a poor light for any of our UK cousins thinking of coming over for a weekend... (And spending plenty of the Queens pounds too...)

    I wonder how many people see the big picture here... It's not just the Garda bill for hosting the scumbags whilst they visit - It's the millions of lost revenue that hasn't been brought into the country due to this filth playing hardmen on our high streets.

    Woman!!
    And the gardai did not give them an escort from the airport!! Don't believe everything you read.
    Helicopter, and protection for the funeral was, unfortunately, necessary.
    Do you want gunmen running rampant through streets and cemetarys in Dublin seeking revenge?

    I'd well believe it. The junkie shuffle is never too far away in that part of town.

    A certain 'famous' tailor in Dublin City was asked to provide all the suits too. Plenty of cash to be made today for those who supply services to the funeral industry

    Why is everyone being coy? The tailor isn't going to come after you.

    Ashes to ashes, dust to dust,
    This foockers dead,
    Lets hope his coffin rusts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 553 ✭✭✭Andalucia


    from looking at pictures and media reports, this most have been the most costly funeral in Irish,never mind gangland history - the priest must have got a tidy sum to talk about the victim in such glowing terms

    should be exhaustive investigations into how this funeral was paid for and who paid for it - vulgar display of illegitimate dosh

    Possibly, possibly... I'm interested in what Hitchens wanted the Priest to say though....

    Were you at the funeral? What were the "glowing terms"? Have you ever been involved in organising a funeral? Have you ever even actually attended a funeral?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 553 ✭✭✭Andalucia


    unfortunately, I wasn't left in to the funeral owing to strict door policy of sharp tailored suit, blue shirt and sunglasses. I'll know better for the next one

    But you heard the eulogy? You said the priest used "glowing terms " to describe the deceased so I presume you heard it all?

    not anywhere near the most expensive one , Andy Connors cost some money .
    He was buried with €100,000 of his jewellery including a Rolex Presidential Diamond watch which is worth €40,000 alone.
    As well as being buried in a gold-plated coffin worth €28,000

    No taste, new money, bling almighty. Feck that.

    Reminds me of some Traveller dispatches too.

    Anyway, let them waste their money, what do I care. All forgotten by most the next day.

    Death the leveller. All in the ground or in the furnace. Same end for everyone.

    But there's not one single reference in that article to the priest having referred to the deceased in "glowing terms" so maybe you posted the wrong article?

    "The Tailor" Dublin's latest supercriminal, so named because he lines people in chalk.
