Not a good look. I wonder did he go because this was going to come to light?

Calling the Revenue Commissioners!
Time for a Marty audit.
Not sure all publicity is good publicity...they are a punchline atm
Marty is a grafter compared to some of the others in RTE. He travels the length and breath of the country and is thoroughly decent. I wouldn't begrudge him.
Easy known Marty was in Tralee on a Saturday nite in February covering a league match and the day after up in ballybofey .€€€€
In my company this would be regarded as a conflict of interest and not permitted. Nothing is free - this car will be paid for directly or indirectly. At the very least it should be disclosed.
I must say , I pissed myself laughing when it was Marty hahaha
Long time since I seen this
Did Timmy Dooley have the inside track on his fellow Clare man
Wherever you're driving from, from Dubai to Dundalk, from Boston to Ballinasloe, from Singapore to Sixmilebridge. Strap on your seatbelts, you're in for one hell of a ride!
Audit the lot, if that was the attitude this is tip of the iceberg.
And if RTE is in any way typical of other state organisations, a good old torch shone elsewhere could reveal a lot of revenue to be collected. Sure can then be directed to a new RTE and scrap the licence.
That Dr. Harold account is about as funny as discovering a lump in the shower.
Are we sure it’s the same car and the same person? Don’t be surprised if there’s more than one.
As for Marty’s self serving statement - I know people who’ve been sacked/let go for less.
Renault Ire MD to captain of the Stena Foreteller en route to Rosslare from Cherbourg: TURN BACK, TURN BACK!
Is political humour, and satire not funny?
I’d say Renault France must be delighted with how the Irish office are running things…..
Mary's a classy lady. I'm fairly sure I saw her in a BMW before.
In the case of that account, no.
You make it sound like he's doing it as a voluntary act. He's RTEs Gaelic Games Correspondent, working out of News and Current Affairs as well as being one of their main commentators for RTE Sport.
He is well compensated for both roles and there are expenses to be claimed to carry out these jobs -as it should be.
It is also true that he does a lot of meet and greets at GAA clubs around the country, as far as I know, for no money.
He is decent and very likeable but taking the use of a free car as an RTE news staffer, in my view is not right.
It shouldn't have been acceptable back in 2018, either.
I wonder what would Dr Bill ex Renault Ireland owner Bill Cullen make of it all?
He would certainly say they had some liathróidí on them 😂
What about this?
If I remember right, martys renault also appeared in a series he did about helping out communities with fund raising or something like that. Car appeared in driving scenes etc. All renault promotion.
Do any of these fukkers pay for anything? Think of them the next time you're making a car repayment or renewing tax or insurance! Leeches the lot of them!
A few contradictions in Lynch and Morrissey’s statements:
i’ve heard a different name, I’m just saying don’t be surprised if there’s more than one.
Time will tell how many cars were really around.
Yeah, it can't be any more acceptable for Morrissey that it would be for Tubridy just coz people like him more. That sort of reasoning is why you end up in this sort of **** to start with.
Only surprise for me is that an international sex symbol like Marty was driving around in a Renault instead of a Ferrari or something.
Not if it’s not being #kind to The Toyman it’s not! Rotters!
Another beaut who went to the wall owing millions to small businesses!
I won't be surprised if there is more than another one.
A Ferrari wouldn’t be much good in Quikty in west Clare. The sides of the road are all briars so wouldn’t be great for the paintwork.
I turn off the tv whenever Marty Morrissey appears, will throw the remote through it now.
How much more of this sort of crap goes on? One rte presenter when he had a few drinks on him at a wedding was heard boast how he never had to pay for hotels, he just gave them "free" plugs on the radio. At your and my expense in the long run.
