And the wattsapp videos etc, I wonder is there going to be a book wrote about all this? Those limerick guys seem to come out on top, you hear nothing about them next thing they're on top again. I'd say if they played chess they'd be pretty dam good at it. Imagine them running a company, they'd be absolute geniuses. I grew up in a housing estate and as a teenager I worked in Quinnsworth with real street wise lads in Cork City in the early 90's they were the best workers on the floor. Say one guy was on the mineral section, his patch it would be immaculate. He would have great time keeping and his t's were crossed i's dotted. Some went on to become trainee managers others went to Amsterdam, that was a long time ago.

They seem to spend it all as they know around the next corner will be fatal for them. Allot of these “gangsters” don’t cough up the money either for hits and stuff like that. The lads don’t seem to be there when the brains were being handed out. Just shows it’s a fools game.

Doubt there is any more like RL out there who operate for so long while he was alive. Still wonder what he’s role was in KMW murder. It’s a fascinating story on Ruthless.

Shows the all this social media stardom isn’t the best career move, I’m sure there’s many who have learnt to stay off the papers and online who are doing a tidy number without all the attention and knives in their backs. Brains go a long way in these games.

If you look at the house on at Google maps - satellite - you will see there's a lane running at the back if the house where the shooting took place - make it easier for a quick exit. Also, the ladies with the 50 large - they were stopped at 2pm that afternoon in an intelligence lead operation I read yesterday, that was fairly quick on all sides.

As for the 50 Large Ladies I say they are well known to the Gardaí and it might have been that they were tracking them as soon as they left Limerick so they got lucky that to tied into what was happening in The North. There’s no way they knew the connection unless they have a source in the know.

Although there are some criminals who are extremely intelligent they are not the ones running around the streets like brutes & running other peoples errands.

These are fellas killing people because of mistaken identity. Alan Sugar or Bill Gates are they not. I wouldn't employ them to sweep the street.

Robbie wasn't even carrying. I've been in Ardoyne a few times, the back allies can easily be navigated if you have knowledge of the area. You can leave on house and run through and be in the opposite road in seconds. I've heard that the person Robbie was going to see got in contact with a certain Dublin criminal and then the foundations were laid from there. Robbie was at ease going into the area because he's been up and down a few times collecting money, what I can't get info on is why the Dundon mob were with him. That's the strange part of it all
