I think Sean should have decked Will

We'd all be hoping for that, but realistically would you risk jail time and a money settlement after being sued for assault by that fcuker.

If he abused one of your family, fair enough.

Back 35 years ago soaps like Dallas had plenty of fist fights and beatings given out. But no one ever was brought up for assault!

Different world now. On Fair City I can't recall a fist fight between two male characters. You get assault like Billy Meehan, Paddy Bishop, Will etc. Maybe Paul Brennan's swing at Michael, over his affair with Niamh, was the last time I recall 2 men going at it, and that was a tame affair.

Again Mondo yesterday, all the threats but he was never going to hit the little weedy James bollix.

At least Will will be caught with the costs

Was the house in Cashel sold?

Sean should move out, he messed up picking Vinny over Darragh but maybe Dean or Cris wants a room mate, rent Carol's flat or is Laura there? Is Hayley in Paul's flat with Dean over Vinos in Yvonne's flat?

Tyre pit. Seriously!!

I'm thinking they should have tried to get sponsorship from Tyreland, get Ringo aka Keith Duffy back. Orla can "tell the lads Keith sent her". Much better that Fitzy from Tyre pit!

After all, we'd love to see Ringo back, the guy with the "Úna with a fada" tattoo on his bum.

Remind me of the deal Pete did with Vinny ..

So Hughie really believes Will is innocent...thought he was brighter than that...

Wonder who this Fitzy will be.....new love for Orla or someone else dodgy....

Basically I think the Pete is paid extra for every extra lodger Vinny let's stay.

I actually think Hughe’s reaction was king of real.
He hadn't much to do with the pair and sort of accepted the verdict of the trial.

Some People don't realise just cause one isn't found guilty doesn't make them innocent
Hughie clearly has a black and white view on the whole thing

Given the bill I can see him trying to provoke someone into clattering him to try and win a damages case.

Was Sean not within his rights to grab Will and fcuk him out for refusing to leave...Seen it done irl.

To be honest I was surprised with his reaction.
Sean is mainly use to hanging around pensioners than being the hard man. He can’t even cope with Vinny.
I’m surprised they didn’t have Darragh the bouncer there to be the tough man!

Max Headroom

When Will said "make me" i really thought Sean was going to flex the muscles....or maybe Will would have just cried....:P

JP Liz V1

Did Dolly not air her conflicting views with Hughie before testifying which she then sided with Cris after witnessing Will lie and manipulating outside the court?

I feel Will got off over being a nurse during the covid pandemic

I think if you were on a jury tough.
Mairead said he was never violent in 18 years of marriage.
Dolorus nearly came across as she had some sort of sudden vendetta against Will.
Also, they was also this issue around the death of Chris’s first husband.

Wil would make mincemeat out of Sean. Sean only collects glasses in that pub. He doesn't own it. Maybe he should go back to the rented house and start acting the hardman in there.

One thing from the Station Bar yesterday; Damo & Cristiano chatting re Euros; Damien says it's not the same without Ireland....and Chile.....aye lad ha ha!

I wasn't watching but I assume this was in The Station? Remember Trigger Foley would spend hours propping up Robbie's bar despite Robbie telling him to GTFO, "It's a free country", it was Robbie's bloody pub and he couldn't bar him?

I think Hughie's attitude is that he hardly knows either Will or Cristiano and therefore he's keeping well out of it - he probably thinks it's not up to him to take sides and he should be polite to both of them.

JP Liz V1

Will probably treated Renee for Covid19

I think Sean's problem with Vinny is mostly naivety around women who flash their eyelashes. He's always been hardy enough around men.

Personally I think Dara Collins wouldn't be worth a dam. He's like a dopey oul mongrel. Always looks like he doesn't really know what's going on. Not all there either as shown with the Orla episode.

They used him being a hard working caring nurse

This is why Bronagh should have testified :mad:

Did Will hit himself before and blame Damo, Caoimhe and Mairead believed Will

That's right - he claimed that Damien had physically attacked him during an argument.

I totally get you but just going on the evidence they choose to use I understand the verdict.
Maybe in real life it’s similar I don’t really know.

I thought given Cris injuries Will would get done, it is frustrating

I really was expecting Damo and Bronagh to testify

I presume if Phoebe turns on him, Will could leave or be killed off

pjohnson

Mairead why the fcuk do you want another chance with Phoebe?

He admitted he beat him up so surely the jury have to find guilty of causing bodily harm or whatever the charge was? Then would be up to sentencing to take into account the self defence aspect.

The cross examination/objection aspects of the trial was terrible.

A barrister meeting a client in a chipper on a Sunday to personally deliver the bill? Really?
