Trade creditors from collapsed firms associated with hurling great x have yet to see any monies from the liquidation of the companies.

In February of last year, x's contract-cleaning business x Enterprises Ltd along with his Alton Ltd and Dublin Janitorial Centre Ltd were all placed in liquidation with combined debts of €1.7 million.

Noel Murphy was named as liquidator to the three firms where the five-times All-Ireland winner with Kilkenny served as a director with his former partner and former panellist on RTÉ's Dragons' Den, Sarah Newman.

Now, in documents recording Mr Murphy's dealing relating to the companies' liquidation for the first year, they show that most of the money received by the firms has been spent on liquidation and legal fees with trade creditors yet to receive any money.

A GAA star, who is under investigation for alleged fraud and deception, was subjected to a debt judgment for tens of thousands of euro secured by a businessman who gave him money.

The judgment is believed to be just one debt owed by the former player to friends, acquaintances and business associates who gave him money ranging from four-figure sums to more significant amounts.

The suspect is being investigated by the Garda with detectives from the National Economic Crime Bureau interviewing and taking statements from witnesses who have alleged that the individual sought the money on claims he needed money for cancer treatment abroad.

The total sums involved are estimated to run to a significant six-figure sum

A businessman owed money by a GAA star, who is now under investigation for fraud, has claimed that the sportsman was playing golf at a time he said he was overseas receiving cancer treatment.

The multimillionaire businessman secured a debt judgment against the retired player for tens of thousands of euro after lending the sports star a six-figure sum at a time when he had told him that he was to be undergoing treatment in the US.

The entrepreneur is one of several friends, acquaintances and business associates of the former player who are owed debts by him and who have made statements to the Garda. The former GAA player is being investigated for alleged fraud and deception by detectives from the Garda National Economic Crime Bureau.

Detailed statement
A number of people who gave him money believe he did not have cancer and have made complaints to the Garda claiming that they were deceived into giving him money.


The businessman, who has made a detailed statement to the Garda about his dealings with the sports star, has declined to comment. Efforts to obtain a response from the former GAA player, who is not being named for legal reasons, have proven unsuccessful. An Garda Síochána has made no comment on the matter.

Some of the alleged payments to the sportsman date back to 2021. He sought financial support from the businessman, telling him that he was due to be paid compensation from a medical negligence claim and that he needed to clear a debt to one of the country's main banks and was undergoing cancer treatment overseas.


The businessman later discovered that the sports star was playing golf at a well-known Irish course at a time when he told him he would be undergoing treatment in Seattle.

Five-figure judgment
Unable to recover his money, the businessman, who enjoyed a windfall from the sale of a business several years ago, turned to the courts and registered a five-figure judgment against the sports star last year.

The judgment was lower than the total debt as he wanted to make a symbolic statement of securing a debt judgment against him while avoiding higher legal costs by pursuing the full amount. The sports star repaid a four-figure sum, a fraction of the overall amount owing, after the judgment.

Gardaí were said to have been alerted after bank staff became suspicious about the sportsman's financial dealings. Detectives have made contact with individuals after tracing money transfers.

One couple paid the sports star €5,000 after he told them that he was undergoing treatment for multiple myeloma, the same cancer for which the wife in the couple was receiving treatment. The couple believes they were targeted and groomed and that his claims that he was suffering from cancer were a ruse playing on their emotions to secure money. The woman repeatedly sought repayment, which was eventually received after she threatened to tell her story in the media.

Aidan nugent pretty scathing on twitter about the failure from central council to pay any travelling expenses to any county players from 1Nov

County players are out a clean fortune. Least the GAA could do is to honour what was agreed and reimburse them!

He always struck me as a fellow who had an expensive lifestyle and expensive tastes.

There is no sense to it, this sort of thing and that practised by a female with a similar name were bound to be found out, so any benefit would be short lived.

Was there not a Tyrone judge on it on one of the earlier series?
