    If they could make Shergar disappear without a trace, then it its no wonder.
    Saw on the FB page comments of insinuations that some of the stock could be repossessed stock :(

    Yeah heard that last night

    If repossessed surely the media and guards would know

    The story wouldn't be as sensational to joe public if they realised some of the stock came from others misfortune.
    The banks and such aren't very popular for public support right now.
    Might I add this is all alleged

    If they're insured and they say they are, they shouldn't need it

    Can I just say conspiracy

    Edit: I also echo Ranglers comment that they don't need donated livestock however well meaning it is.

    Couldn't believe any bank would want cattle and if it was repossession they would have to do it in compliance with the department as in testing before moving and all that


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 959 ✭✭✭Arrow in the Knee


    Is it true that the owner is an exporter as a lad said that to me this morning?

    I was thinking about this earlier and couldn't figure what circumstances animals could be repossessed. I suppose a bank moving on a farm is one :(

    Don't know if there were any or not, just allegations on FB.
    Awful shock to go herding and find all those animals gone.

    Yip, please don't be speculating about these allegations as this is a public forum.

    I have never heard of cattle being repossessed


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭Willfarman


    The whole job is very odd. I see references to Shergar disappearing being similar to two double lorries of cattle and a trailer load of sheep stolen without trace. I am cynical now despite my early sympathy.

    I know of a lad few miles from here and he was always propping up the bar, on his third ban, total scumbag, cattle constantly in with all neighbors. They got together and made serious complaints.. Cattle ended up being seized by the sheriff and held until he went and paid all costs, had to satisfy dept that some fencing had been done too.. Worked too as he sold out stock, planted the place... continues to drink and be a general lout though.

    Can someone please elaborate what these shady, suspicious or whatever underhand activities are going on out of interest?

    Anything I have read about this incident is from this thread.

    And I also think it's dodgy as fcuk.

    If it is dodgy will the good Samaritans get their livestock back?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,712 ✭✭✭✭whelan2


    some one must know where the cattle are :confused::confused:

    I don't think anyone should do that, it would be all speculation and the family don't deserve speculation from anomous posters. Let the guards and insurance investigators do their work.

    We are not going to speculate any further on thread about the accusations. It does nothing only distract from the actual story- That the cattle and sheep were stolen and they have not been found yet.

    You can PM all you like, any further assumptions will be deleted.

    Don't mean to argue with you but I think it was more an act of kindness from other farmers to them.Well that was I seen about a comment on Facebook.

    Yea.. considering quite a few people must have been involved they are keeping a very tight lid on themselves.. Hopefully the animals are being treated well or were dispatched with some shred of decency..

    Wouldn't a mobile tracking device boluses with tag number in be the job now up around the lawless border.

    And there would be a way around them too. Everyone knows who's at what around the border, guards are usually either scared or too lazy to chase up on it, in most cases.
