Merriongate –‘ ‘missing” 200,000 of FAI dosh when John Delaneys father Joe was treasurer is a MOST interesting read. Written by Veronica Guernin if you google it. Ole! BRAZIL ole!

Let’s hope we wake up to the news that John Delaney is also banged up in Bangu! I imagine he’s wearing pyjamas tonight :)

What a fantastic end it would be to the olympics. Better for Irish sport than any amount of medals. Teflon John has a knack of weathering storms but surely this one will be too much.
Walter-Ego
Unfortunately, he’s back in Ireland. Hope we have good extradition channels with Brazil.
Lilly
Can’t be extradited for something that’s not an offence here.
Paddy
Unfortunately not. But would it curtail his trips to other countries where it is an offence?
Twunt
How did he get back without a passport?
Lilly
Anyone know why Katie Taylor and her father have fallen out?
Cot
They fell out over Jesus. Jesus and what Jesus means. It’s a sad story….
Wayne.F
Nobody’s business but theirs Lilly
Lilly
I disagree. He’s giving interviews right, left and centre saying she was robbed of rightful win. It!s the elephant in the room.
Cot

It’s absolutely none of your business what happens in a family other than yours, as long as it is not illegal. Curtain twitchers

@ Kieran NYC Yawn. Surprise us for once why don’t you.

The Bible doesn’t frown on men taking more than one “wife”. But gold medal winning Olympic boxers might have a few choice words.
Wayne.F
Mike & Cot, does it make you feel good? Her father has done so much around Bray for kids including his daughter he has raised an Olympian and a role model. Any private family business is just that.
Lilly
I don’t see anyone casting aspersions Wayne. It’s a little unrealistic to go around calling someone your rock for years, then expecting the public to ask no questions when you cast said rock into the wilderness.
Owen
I don’t think anyone was cast into the wilderness. I think it was a family issue, still is, and they have kept it that way. Quite clearly.
It’s shocking to see that people feel they have some entitlement to know the entire background to every family in the spotlight. Go watch big brother. All you need ton know here is that Kate Taylor and her father are not training together.
Lilly
Oh don’t be so sanctimonious Owen. No one wants to know the ‘entire background’ of the Taylors. Just an indication as to what happened that caused Katie Taylor to change her phone number so her father can’t contact her.
Owen
Well first, that sounds like complete tabloid gossip, second, why do you have any right to know anything about it?
Frida
That tabloid gossip, as you so priggishly put it, came from Pete Taylor. People can’t expect to use the media to generate interest in themselves and their endeavours when it suits them, then turn around and attempt to shut down that interest when it doesn’t.

…whatever happened it was gods will…
Owen
priggishly? Calm down. It was reported by the Star.
Frida
Ha! Someone needs to calm down alright and it ain’t me ;)
Bob
Please bang up George Hamilton too.
Lilly
No problem, what’s his room number?
Twunt
Agreed, he is a very mediocre sports commentator. I wouldn’t be too dissapointed I I never heard Marty Morrisey again either. This is a great chance to purge many scoundrels and chancers
Spaghetti Hoop
What exactly is Hamilton’s and Morrisey’s crime? Hamilton presents classical music now, not sport.
Deluded
Aye, Hamilton’s Scores ^_^
Bob
Hamilton was over there, don’t think he did any research on the sports he was covering, spent most of his time rambling and reading out Birthday requests.

We are looking more and more like a country of money grabbing corrupt filthbags.

Team GB rise up the medal charts. No questions asked in any serious manner.

Well… Apart from a couple of flagship Athletes, what the Brits did isn’t that complex…. A number of years back – after a miserable Sydney Olympics – they decided to invest. They targeted a number of sports where 1- the global competition was mediocre at best and 2- develop heavily in advance of a hopeful application to host in 2012.
It’s exactly the same sort of strategy that East Germany took in the 1960’s.
This is not meant as some sort of insult. They targeted where they felt the could be competitive and went all in with the dough. It takes that long to get to where they are now. Fair play to them.

They did amazingly well. If they’re all clean in the urine department then the investment has truly paid off. The ripple effect is that the kids all have role models….though there are plenty ways to succeed in their lives than sport. Imagine the sponsorship deals being struck right now.

Don’t mention Seb Coe or Mo Farah….sssshhhhhh

How about a follow up to your popular series on Erica Fleming who has been forced to have a kid and live in a hotel by FG.

Anyone else sick of the Guardians race baiting racist trash ?
