MHR tellimg it like it is

I've been reading this thread for over the last few days without really feeling like wading in.

You've been the most consistent pro-Delaney voice and for a while there I actually thought - well partly considered - that you were serious. But stuff like this shows that all you are trying to do is wind people up.

It's pathetic.

Mhr says the people of kerry are delighted with the development happening in kerry?

Which they really are.

And somehow thats me being a troll?

Mhr point was that there had already been fantastic investmemt in kerry. Ergo the welcome.

His point was "Don't worry JD, you've put money into my constituency so I'm not going to ask you any hard questions. Keep up the good work and don't forget about what I said here today if you get through all this intact."

This is how JD has built his base of supporters over the years. Here's a bit of money in exchange for your support. There's more of that if you keep on supporting me. It's a very simple tactic and its been very successful for him over the years. He's bought loyalty up and down the country and that's not going to go away even if he does.

Just watched the last ten minutes of it...f*cking hell, does anyone have an answer to anything?!!!
"Oh tommy wasnt working at the FAI at the time"..."i dont have that with me"...blah blah blah...
it would do your head in.

So he doesn't have to answer them because he shifted roles suddenly off the back of the original info link

Lol what an embarrassing loophole

BorneTobyWilde

He's a man with a lot to hide. The people questioning him today where walked all over, not one of them could get an answer out of him.
If he had nothing to hide he'd answer the questions. His bank account should be looked at.

I think it's a great day.

The slow crumbling of Delaney's empire continues unchecked. I'd hate to see him go too quickly. I want it lingering and everything to be extracted from it. Not some quick and painless demise.

While at the same time everyone gets to see just how useless most of our public representatives are.

Neither comes out well. It really was a parade of the ugly all round, but unlike the last round of backslapping this time the media will be all over it.

As Imelda Munster alluded to earlier, at least non footballing fans are getting the chance to see what the FAI, and in particular, John Delaney are really like. Disgraceful stuff really.

Arghus

I'll tell you what if the FAI were as good at running a football association as they at dodging questions we'd truly be up there with the best in the world.

People can't help themselves. He'll post one comment and 10 people will reply.

Ah stop will you. Everyone knows your shtick at this stage.

Today was farcical from the FAI and everyone saw it.

Cery cynical. Sure hed given all the imvestment way back before he was ever in trouble.

If the idea that he develops facilities to gain favour is thrown at him then he literally can't do any right

Tbh they've managed to pin absolutely nothing on the FAI. Any awkward questions, even the ones provided to the FAI in advance specifically so that they had to be answered, were all met with a shrug of the shoulders coupled with a variety of thin excuses that they weren't called out on.

Absolute shambles of a "body" who are meant to be holding organisations to account on behalf of the public.

this is crazy, they are basically just telling the government to f... off

Ehh this isn't the government it a committee made up of both houses and all parties.
So basically it is a fook off to all the elected representatives of the people, i.e. a fook off to the Irish people and most especially the taxpayers who provide the funding.

It sounds like a real tour de force from Delaney.

I said it here twice, as if a bunch of TDs would lay a finger on him. It's a farce of a process and inquiry after inquiry only highlights how right we were to refuse to give them further powers in the referendum 5 or 6 years ago.

The end for Delaney is night, but it will be matters like the Sport Ireland grant and the media that will knobble him, not a bunch of estate agents with thick politicians necks.

Isn't that a hit rich from a fella that was on John "the bull" donoghues team ?

The same lad that used the Lotto as a way of feathering his own nest down your way when he wasn't visiting the races in Paris or getting Kerry chauffeurs to drive around Heathrow, all at the taxpayers expense :rolleyes:

I missed the...weirdness...of you popping up with this across various forums. You had kinda given it a break for a while.

They've answered nothing and, worse again, they're going to laugh off into the sunset and get away with it.

you get the politicians you deserve, and god knows the kingdom deserves the HRs

Chancer3001

Pretty sure the healy raes are very very highly thought of in kerry.

They bring serious development to the place

Well I never led you fianna failer lads away with backing some right chancers like donoghue and bertie.
I just don't want people to try disavow and walk away from their past, much like the bold Delaney.
I remember when you used to post in the likes of Politics till you did a Keyser Soze and vanished.

Mind I do actually agree with you that our politicians will not be the ones to catch Delaney out.

BTW: could you tell your fellow county man it is bad manners to wear a hat indoors.

So youre saying theyre great and the great people of kerry deserve them?

Or are you implying theyre bad and the silly kerry voters deserve them?

You didnt make it clear

jobeenfitz

I'm of the opinion that the HRs, John Delaney, Bertie,Charlie, P Flynn, Lowry + Dinny and a few more all came out of the same vagina.

All out for themselves and their cronies n get championed by fools who get crumbs for their own little parish.

The quinns were and are highly thought of in Cavan/Fermanagh.
Didn't stop them causing billions of euro of debt being lumped on Irish taxpayers thanks to their greed in trying to own their own bank or didn't stop them from hiding assets that should have been given up to lessen their debts that were being carried by the taxpayers.

Lowry, a tax cheat and probably a lot more, is lauded in Tipperary.

flynn a supreme chancer who was adept at pocketing cheques from developers was and still is lauded by some in Mayo.

Then again you are named chancer so maybe those folks are the ones you look up to ?

Chancer3001

Most people who are highly thought of dont cause such debacles tho.

Exceptions to every rule.
