    What bling ? A ring and a watch, hardly Carmela Soprano

    Playing it sweet? Most of them are dead

    Only one person involved in the regency has died, and that was from natural causes.

    Not one person of any significance was killed by the kinahans.

    Thats quite a shame from Pete's perspective, i had a soft spot for the rags to riches type rise he had. I remember when he used to be on the doors down the seafront in Bray and lived in old court.

    As for MTK, they should be avoided like the plague.

    You're the first person in bray that I've heard of that has a soft spot for Mister Taylor.

    Anytime I've heard his name mentioned in Bray it's followed with "scumbag" and snigger at the "found god" bit.
    He's better known for working the doors on a seafront club years ago, and beating the ****e out of someone so badly they are in a wheelchair for life.
    Many stories like that.

    Was looking through articles this morning about Katie and see that her mam 'found god' alright. She certainly wasn't a god botherer in her youth. Are Katie's siblings the same or was it just Katie that took on all the god worship stuff?

    Ones brother is well renowned physicist and academic well to do in his own right. Also a fellow of the Marie Curie Institute. I guess a few apples have fallen far from the tree.

    Wasn’t he a bouncer in “Classses” otherwise known as The Dugg Inn which is now Platform Pizza?

    In terms of a rebrand I was referencing this https://www.google.ie/amp/www.thejournal.ie/mtk-gym-sold-kinahan-3687386-Nov2017/%3famp=1 rather than the change of name due to the legal dispute with mgm, basically a complete managerial clearout and then the large buyout upfront in cash, that was done to distance the brand from the regency and kinahan, yet this incident again drags the brand back into the spotlight and raises questions again about who is really running the show there.

    Thats all bollox IMO. There was no buy out. They claim there was a buy out but the one running it now Sandra Vaughan is up to her neck in it too and has had dealings with the Kinahans going back years.

    Siblings aren't as into god as Katie, but then they're not in the media as much as her. But no, they're not as devout - not sure if that's the right word / description.

    I actually agree with you, it was just for appearances.

    Katie must be pretty disgusted as well the way RTE and the media in general hardly ever filmed/covered her fights until she started making headway in the Olympics yet she already had European and world titles.

    Yet I've never seen such media coverage for her in the past few days even though shes one of the most successful boxer and Olympians to come out of Ireland.

    Total joke.

    Katie was reported on and fights in the world's from quaters/semis on and euros were shown on RTE or tg4 well before she won gold in the olympics
    There was no interest out side of boxing circles.

    Firstly, your Hutch tinted glasses need cleaning.
    Secondly, a whole lot of those that the Kinahans murdered had some involvement in the planning or logistics of the bungled attack on the Regency.

    Nobody believes that this is one innocent families struggle against an evil drug cartel.

    Not sure he is saying that. But I thought 6 people took part in the hit in Regency. One is dead of natural causes and one is on trial ( I'm very suspicious of the delay in this trial also- We'll wait and see the outcome there)

    What about the rest of them? I generally assume the Guards know the people involved in these hits as they are the top criminals but they don't have evidence so they can't touch them. Kinahans definitely know who they are but none of them have been touched

    He got her friend pregnant. I think that might be enough. Especially for somebody religious like she is.

    Indeed, but people are assuming that is the 'only' reason for the falling out and nothing else. This other dodgy stuff may have been going on at the same time and she might have been aware of it, thus making things even worse between them.

    I meant more like it looked like he had turned his life around ect, I don't know all the bad stories but for a moment it looked like things were going into the right direction and a father and daughter team from Bray had done something great.

    Obviously that didn't last long, and was only a facade for him.

    Back Bar of the Porterhouse wasn't it? Had a fearsome reputation back then.

    Wasn't considered to be a very nice person that's for sure.
