Probably. But thankfully the knock on includes finishing Tubridy.

What a performance. Cringe. Absolutely out of touch with his colleagues in RTE. They must be fuming listening to him with this shite.

Half a million quid a year lads and nixers on the side.

Noel Kelly going on about publishes figures incorrectly published, which 'created the crisis' causing 'huge repetitional damage' to Tubridy.

Mentions Breeda O'Keefe email sponsor re - Renault - came from RTE. RTE underwrote the contract then tried to distance themselves from it.

Kelly - 'There is no secret. there was no secret'

Tubs was indulged completely there by going for 15mins+ but opening statements are normally limited to 5.

“Emotion”

Noel says Renault in a D4 way - Ren -oww

Alan Kelly will say it like a Tipp man - Ren - aalt

Thanks the great divide in Irish society

Eh, Windows 11.

And RTE Player.

There was a secret Noel. The people paying Ryans wages and the major stakeholder, the minister were kept in the dark. By you and RTE.

Shelga · 11-07-2023 10:25AM

If there was no secret then why did Noel Kelly invoice RTÉ for “consultancy fees”??

Sorolla · 11-07-2023 10:25AM

NK is very good.

Archduke Franz Ferdinand · 11-07-2023 10:25AM

Thanks to the post people for getting those letters addressed to Ryan Tubridy Dublin. Sob, sniffle. The people who came up to me in the street and put their arm around me ( this is emotional) the good decent people of lreland. ……be de lord

The timbre of his voice is that of a much taller man too. His voice doesn’t match his appearance at all.

Breda O' Keeffe not coming out of this looking too good now.

That's the 64 thousand dollar question. Here we go.

Atlantic Dawn · 11-07-2023 10:27AM

Why did they need to go through RTE to go to Renault if it was seperate work?

Hungry Bear · 11-07-2023 10:27AM

Like 2 brats of children caught with their hands in the cookie jar. Blame everyone, it wasn't us.

Expunge · 11-07-2023 10:27AM

Getting the BBC and his publishers mentioned there by Noel.

He STILL has options, you know!!!!!

ButtersSuki · 11-07-2023 10:27AM

Kelly out blaming RTE again. How he (and Tubs) think attacking them like this is going to work in their favour is #bonkers.

Goldengirl · 11-07-2023 10:27AM

Whoo, Noel getting emotional 😯

Ms O'Keeffe did him wrong !

She pleased everybody with her big long statement last week and wasn't questioned on it as a result .

Poor Collins was her patsy .

i’m looking out for the ‘ attempting to open close button of jacket ‘ strategy or was that reserved for the LLS?

MrMusician18 · 11-07-2023 10:27AM

He's absolutely awful. Theatrical nonsense.

Markus Antonius · 11-07-2023 10:27AM

Breda O'Keefe (former CFO who was referred to as being "refreshing and honest" in last weeks committee) now being properly thrown under the bus by Tubs and agent.

Appears she agreed to the underwriting of the Renault deal

HeidiHeidi · 11-07-2023 10:28AM

I thought GOK said the invoices were raised by her assistant, in her office?

Now NK saying they instructed him to raise the invoices.

I'm no finance guru, and I'm awfully confused now.

11-07-2023 10:28AM

RTE and GOL won't take this lying down. They can't.

Alan Kelly v Noel Kelly is no contest.

Noel Kelly is an acquaintance of mine and he will shred any of them if they try and tie him in knots.

skimpydoo · 11-07-2023 10:28AM

RTY's opening statement is full of holes. Earlier this year he claimed he wanted to continue on the LLS and he is now claiming he knew last year he was leaving.

It's ironic that RT is on the most watched TV show of the year which for once is not on RTE but a rival broadcaster.

boardise · 11-07-2023 10:28AM

From what I've heard so far it looks like game,set and match to the Kelly/Tubridy doubles team.

SEPT 23 1989 · 11-07-2023 10:28AM

He has had more than five minutes

Release the hounds
