Hope he gets well soon

tfitzgerald · 24-04-2012 04:37PM

Nerves I'd say. it was in the Sunday mirror that his ex girlfriend the dragons den ex expert is claiming that there is 1 million missing from one of his companies . In saying all that I really hope he feels better soon

Reports of a suspected heart attack http://www.independent.ie/national-news/kilkenny-hurling-legend-dj-carey-rushed-to-hospital-3090588.html

I've heard a rumour earlier on today regarding the reason of him being hospitalised, before this news broke which I hope is not true.

Hope DJ gets well soon, Kilkenny legend!

Maybee it's "resting in one of his accounts" :-)

Not really appropriate given the situation.

Green Brigade · 24-04-2012 05:17PM

Hope he makes a quick recovery, absolute legend round these parts.

catbear · 24-04-2012 05:29PM

Never a fan of bogball but hope it's not serious.

road_high · 24-04-2012 05:32PM

Get well soon DJ. A great sportman and we wish him all the best.

Apparently he when he was taken ill - he was in the Garda station reporting an assault. As much as I dont like him as a person, I do hope he recovers and gets back on his feet soon.

DJ has always came across as a gentleman to me and anyone else I know who has met him. I've never heard anyone say anything like this about him before.

Completly inappropriate comment in the circumstances. Surprised to see so much nasty speculation on here.

Get well soon DJ.

People are entitled to say they aren't keen on someone and still wish them well.

I agree, I am though intrigued by the remark, as I have never heard anyone speak of him in this way.

Mousehouse is entitled to his/her opinion I just find it goes very much against the grain.

I'll take a wild guess at T.Walsh?

domkk · 24-04-2012 10:42PM

What sort of tunez does/did he play? Never heard of him to he honest. Can't have been that good a dj!

Captain Havoc · 24-04-2012 11:32PM

Hope he gets well soon, although I'd imagine he still has a decent level of fitness to get through it quickly.

If you're going to make inappropriate jokes could they at least be funny. I know he's not dead but some people don't appreciate that sort of humor (as per reported posts).

KKkitty · 24-04-2012 11:39PM

I'm from the same village as Dj and I hope and pray he'll be back on his feet soon. Could people have a bit of decorum please and leave his private life out of it. It's nothing to do with ye after all.

Either is the fact that the man had a heart attack and yet people still commented

The thread is about Dj being ill not about money missing from an account he has.

Lump · 25-04-2012 06:55AM

You know someone will just make a new thread now....... Get well soon DJ!

Mankbag · 25-04-2012 12:05PM

Decided I'd have a look at this thread just to see who couldn't resist being unpleasant and/or a smartass. There's always one, isn't there? But how sad to see that so many posters showed exactly how small-minded they are.

Congrats in particular to Misterdeeds for utter crassness, Mousehouse for bringing himself/herself into it (why couldn't you just wish DJ well and leave it at that?) and Domkk for childishness. And Catbear, what was that supercilious and inaccurate "bogball" reference about?

Not a thread that shows regulars here in a good light.

If you have to ask what I'm referring to then why are you are being supercilious by saying I'm being supercilious and inaccurate?

Bog off with yourself. Any news on DJ?

"Bog off with yourself" - a supremely cogent and well argued response! Is this really the best you can do?

catbear · 25-04-2012 02:10PM

It's as much as you deserve.

Captain Havoc · 25-04-2012 07:38PM

Cut out the snipping, with a thread on a person you're gonna have to expect a little bit of discussion away from the incident in hand. The odd bit of humor isn't a bad thing but so long as it's appropriate, I wouldn't get offended by some of the jokes made but a lot of people do as it's a sensitive issue, so please keep this in consideration.

Autosport · 25-04-2012 08:41PM

Hope DJ gets better soon

ft9 · 25-04-2012 08:50PM

He's fine and has been released from hospital.

cocoshovel · 25-04-2012 09:35PM

I have no opinions on what happened really. I just think if somebody dislikes a person they should be able to say so politely without people jumping down their necks just because they're well known.
And yes I, I realize the jokes are distasteful or whatever so dont mistake this post as supporting them.

"Among them will be Denis O’Brien, the billionaire entrepreneur, who is one of Carey’s biggest victims in financial terms, at least.The GAA star has admitted to scamming Mr O’Brien out of €150,000 over eight years for bogus cancer treatments. As well as giving him money, Mr O’Brien allowed Carey to stay in his properties in Kilkenny and Dublin."

Wonder will he get sent down, he deserves to be.
