    Is that really their position or are they biding their time? Surely they wouldn't have much credibility left. Also, what was Barr's position in the organisation?

    The New IRA or whatever name they use now are low on credibility at the minute if recent rumours are to be believed.

    I agree, if you have a business worth close on €1bn then whats €10m or €20m to pay off a few Gardai for information or safe passage of your drugs. €10m or €20m is loose change when viewed in perspective of the profits they're making. CAB should really be keeping an eye on the enemy within because they'll never win against the Kinahans if the cartel is always one step ahead of them by having a few moles within the ranks of the Gardai.
    Considering the wages they are on on, €1m alone would gather plenty of intelligence. And once they go down that road there is no coming back, blackmail also an issue. Plenty of rogue cops out there, this wasn't even long ago and on a much smaller scale.

    But the poor cops are only starting on €23k. They need to supplement their wages in some way

    Possibly another shooting in the Sheriff At area, about 20 gardai cars and vans screaming down the street at high speed about 30 mins ago.. scouring the area looking for something or some one.

    Not sure tbh.. so many sirens it was difficult to distinguish but I doubt it was for something minor as they were coming from all directions.

    Seen that also, driving by there. Don't think it was a shooting. Think it was a few youths.

    Jeez that's some reaction, I counted at least 10 cars, 2 bikes and 2 vans heading down the quays and through the IFSC.. hopefully it's not a shooting.

    i heard the exact same story as you recently pal except i was been told gf instead of rb
    thats some deep betrayal so rb is kinahan sided and gf is hutch sided then?

    Yeah. Sorry about me messing that up. I was told the info a few weeks ago when out for a few pints with a couple of lads who know the score. In the intervening few weeks I got it a bit mixed up. So I double checked and got the original story clarified. I was told that it was definitely RB who double crossed GF.

    I've heard so many stories at this stage that it is hard to know what to believe.

    About the average response for there to be fair. Well I think that's what it was, as they had a few people against the wall.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,205 ✭✭✭Gringo180


    It was a shooting alright. Some junkie shooting heroin into his arm the dirtbird.

    i know for a fact guards are been targeted by low level gangsters in gyms the boys start talking to them tell them about steroids to help them train longer and harder gain their trust over a number of weeks and then record the guards buying them then its used as leverage for info over them

    thats a pretty low thing to do to a childhood friend guess money makes people turn like that just like a junkie would rob from their family. rb should be worried though id say gf is out for blood and he would know everything about rb, but rb been kinahan sided makes sense someone from that area had to be with hitmen getting such good info on all these northside targets

    It's hard to know. If RB really did that, then he is fúcked on the Hutch side. He was the Kinahan's main man on the North inner city, but you would have to think that he is now fúcked in that area. G&B F. have been very quiet recently. They haven't been running around trying to take out peripheral players the way LB has. One of the Griffin brothers is getting released this week (who took a few quid to try and kill Del Boy as soon as Gary got killed). I don't think that they'll even bother with him - yet. I don't even think that the New IRA will react yet. George Mitchell will play a huge part here.

    yea if rb really did that it seems to have backfired big time im hearing pr the horseback bankrobber and mr big have been very close recently and the plan is that they will run the northside for the kinahans if thats true or not is another thing. yea i seen that griffin is been released i dont think they will bother with him either while all this is going on but i reckon he will be trying to take people out to get himself higher up the ladder with lb, aint heard a lot about george mitchell or the monk in a while but id say they are still making plans together i wonder if fatso mitchell is involved at all dk tried to have him killed a few years back in spain

    I heard that this was all about a huge takeover bid and that Georgie was heavily involved. Christie Snr. sailed off into the sunset and handed over the reigns Daniel and a gap was spotted. Gerry spotted this gap and asked his nephew to look into it. Gerry talked to some real heavy hitters (Georgie, a Scottish gang and the RA), and said yes. Daniel got word and took out Gary. And that's what kicked it all off.

    yea just about the same as what i heard any word on who these scottish guys are though? sunday world are reporting today that dk and lb are using the same 2 hitmen in duggan eddie hutch and mickey barrs murders you hear if this is true or anything about them because if it was i was thinking they must be from the northside because the city was on lockdown when eddie hutch was killed and guards were not far away from the sunset house when barr was killed

    I don't know about this Scottish connection, but I have heard it mentioned enough and it is always with Georgie. LB throwing around €10k here and there for a hit is meaningless. If I was Christy Snr, I'd be having serious words with LB.

    yea i heard the scottish thing ages ago but nothing about them id say their defo connected to george some way. id say christy is happy enough now to let lb do what he wants back in dublin once daniels not involved and is able to take care of the business, id say hes happy to let lb lr and the fat one go to war with the hutches if its keeping them off his back and they would all be expendible to him

    I wonder if Rattigan is sitting back waiting for his enemies to be wiped out by someone else.

    The Scottish connection was mentioned around February but nothing much since. I personally dont believe the Hutches done all this alone and wanted to takeover. There must have been some other involvement at a higher level other than their associates and a rag tag of Dissident republicans.

    Wonder if there is any involvement either from the Scousers, Turks, Russians or North Africans. The half Irish family from London. Or are they all interested observers from the sidelines.

    The New IRA couldn't even deal with Mr Big nevermind the Kinahans. The Cartel must piss themselves laughing at the prospect.

    Yep. I doubt they give a toss about the RA. I remember talking to some lads a few few years ago and they described the RA at the time as a bunch of clowns bumping into each other in the dark. Rightly or wrongly, they don't rate them. But I think they are wrong. This "New" IRA could prove to be very formidable.

    The only way I'm keeping up with this a spreadsheet. Not even kidding, I was bored one evening and started making a spreadsheet to figure out who was on which side and how they were connected. LB - Liam Byrne, yes?

    How come the cartel never got involved in crumlin / drimnagh feud ? Or did they ?
