As I said Click this is all unbelievable bull shit and if you understood the post you would know what I am referring to, but you clearly don't, nothing has changed from the above post Click only that the hypocrites have doubled.
b) Why are there still IGB members who were involved in the decision for the Limerick debacle despite alternative recommendations in the Indecon report that was used as an excuse to sell HX.
John,
A few people have emailed me saying that you are one of Lowry / Billy O'Dwyer's cronys.
So your ire to the above post now makes sense.
As a supporter of the greyhound industry how can you justify the continued presence of Billy O'Dwyer on the board of the IGB since 15/04/2008 which is in direct contradiction to the recommendations of the Indecon Report. A report that was used to justify the selling of Harrold's Cross.
Especially since he was pushed onto the board by Lowry who insisted on his appointment in order to support Bertie Aherns government back in 2008.

Kieran I obviously bother you a whole lot more than you bother me. Yes I am a friend of Ml Lowry and have been for 30 odd years. Billy O Dwyer is a neighbour and a friend and I value friendship above anything. Cronyism I dont do. You feel that your reference to the post has irked me. Not in the least. Bullies who call names when their arguments are lost irk me. I have learned not to worry about stuff I cant control. You mention that Im a supporterof the industry. Well if that means that I breed, rear and train dogs then Im guilty as charged. Im awake at this ungodly hour to look after my dogs before I go to my day job but guys with no dogs wouldnt really understand the passion that this involves. Well done to you and your friends who took the time to check me out. If you ever want to get back into dogs look me up again and Ill sort you with a pup, sapling or race dog. It seems to me that too many people are putting their own ego ahead of the greater good and thats sad. Im just as aware and frustrated with the shortcomings of the IGB as anyone else who puts a lead on a dog but Im too busy to stay looking at the past and I cant change it.
