    Folks... Where is Ben Gilroy... Surely he is the only man that can save us now...

    Is he not in the chokey?

    Any news from the big sheds at the back?

    Isn't that the woman that went off the rails on Facebook when the eviction happened.?

    I won't repeat what she said but she went quite then.

    Still nothing paid since 2014

    Incredible to think people feel sorry for them, the vast majority of the country went out in the pissing rain this morning to pay there mortgages, bills ect..

    Here is a land owner with assets to pay off his debts but won't because of stubbornness and freeman bull****.... And apparently some fella on YouTube that reckons money doesn't exist.... Or something


    The biggest mistake the bank made was getting a group of heavies down from the North especially when they consider themselves British , this is something that won't end well as a result

    It has to be brought to a successful conclusion, to protect those who actually pay their debts, otherwise it’s anarchy.

    get irish professionals to feck them out and i'll be happy enough. hiring criminals wasn't the best idea.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 832 ✭✭✭Nevin Parsnipp


    Not a lot happen's in Strokestown ....so this is an opportunity for the locals to do a bit of Buckleppin and show them up in Dublin that they can't do what they like.

    Bad idea to hire the Nordies to carry out the eviction...could scupper the whole deal.

    Good few folks these days seem to think that you can borrow money without having to pay it back...so this will be an interesting test case .

    When wasit ever said that the eviction team were criminals? There have been claims that they were unlicensed but there is no evidence either way being reported on.

    Fact is, that no irish security team will evict people because of the "house for free" brigade.

    The next step will be prison for anyone on the property. There is a high court injunction there which anyone on the property is in breach of, which is contempt of court

    they haven't removed them yet. good luck to them enforcing it.

    That is a matter for the gardai. An attachment and committal order will be sought from the court and the gardai will attend and arrest everyone there...they will be jailed until they purge their contempt.

    The only support the family are receiving are from fringe anti eviction types, none of whom are local. If you google the names of those people mentioned in the news reports you will quickly see their form.

    Correct Bluey, flying squads moved in.

    These tossers should be put in the chokey if they break the law.

    Time to end this arse boxing and see what the big sheds were holding.

    Looks like a lot of hate around here for people from the country who don't pay their debts.
    Seems like if you owe a few hundred thousand your treated like vermin, but if your a big developer like Harry Crosbie, and a few of his mates you can owe hundreds of millions and still walk round like a celebrity and still live like a king,
    And while i agree the should have being evicted years ago and it should never have got to this stage, not everyone mixes with celebrity barristers and just bury their head in sand when this happens.

    Perhaps banks should be more careful who they lend to !

    Bring Loyalist Henchmen to do evictions Ain’t Brains 101 either .

    Not a lot happens in Strokestown, what is that supposed to mean.
    Get out of your junkie and scumbag riddled city now and again to see there is a place that exists outside Dublin.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,898 ✭✭✭mgn


    As for the locals who were branded thugs and vigilantes that attacked the security guards and shot the dog,get your fact straight,most were from outside the county, most noticeably a Dublin man whose father owns a security company,Now i wonder why was he went down the there, i suppose he felt it was his duty to help some farmer in the west of Ireland.

    This situation is noyhing to do with burying heads in the sand. This is a serial defaulter who refuses to engage and then relies on pseudolegal advice from nutcases. The court even described it as such.

    Large developers who owe millions are not relevant to this story. They did not leverage millions against the family home and if they did they lost the family home.

    If these people get away with it then everyone simply stops paying their mortgage and you have chaos. Plus, the bank involved has been successful in every court application where all the facts have been before the court to consider.

    So its okay if your smart enough not to include your family mansion, These developers should have everything taking of them as well.
    What about Frank Mcnamara and his barrister wife who got a 3 million write off, the celebrity chef in Clontarf who never paid a penny back on his mortgage for 7 or 8 years, why are these people not evicted , as far as i can see in this country, its not what you owe,its who you know.

    If the borrower actually had engaged with a pip he would have gotten a deal that would have saved the house much like teresa lowe and frank mcnamara. However he chose not to pay. He chose to listen to the advice of pub lawyers

    The borrower owed debts to local businesses and several others... i cannot imagine that not paying your neighbours would make you very popular in the locality

    So that's okay so, play the poor mouse and you get millions of taxpayers money written off.
    So you can borrow what you like and if it doesn't work out, the taxpayer foot the bill if you engage with the bank. A joke of a system.

    Now if its the family home and you have no means to pay for it that's different story.

    Some of the business in area that the owed money too had no problem going bankrupt owing millions to locals and starting up again bigger than ever.

    I think you misunderstand.... the strokestown could have gone to a pip and gotten a great deal like teresa lowe...but he didnt. He chose to get lunatic pseudo legal advice and not engage with the bank.

    Have to say that some write downs do seem a tad generous....but the main point is that the folks involved did engage......And they will still pay substantial sums over considerable years.

    Now as to Strokestown....it would appear from reports that there is NO engagement just obfuscation and intimidation AND a serial non payment record over and number of years.

    If it is the family home there is an option to sell it and move to a more modest property....an option which never seems to get much mentio in this or similiar cases. ?

    Capice ?

    Anyone that gambles there family home by remortgaging it for 300000 is asking for serious trouble, especially when they have no intention of paying it back

    The farmer from strokestown has several assets to pay back what he owes but won't, the majority of people that enter foreclosure with banks are usually people that don't make an effort to pay some bit of there loan

    You can't work on the basis that if one person gets away without paying we all should
