Quote from: Captain Obvious on October 05, 2025, 11:13:10 PMFirst bit of pressure and bit of dirty news found out about him and Jimbo jumps ship and to think GAA HQ put their faith in that individual to change the sport for the better  ::)

Pity that Trump bollox hadn't given up as handy as Jimbo when faced with a few dodgy stories from the past and the odd indictment here or there. 😀😀😀

It reflects the values of the electorate, people in the US are happy to have a sex pest represent them.

Well that would certainly be a silver lining to a shocking election process.

And they want to extend the vote in Irish presidential elections to those of us in the North of Ireland bearing Irish passports? We already have enough shitshow elections here, as it is, without adding another one.

It won't be compulsory to vote

If you don't want to vote, that's fine, and, as has been said, you won't have to.  I would quite like a vote despite the shitshow here.

I heard of a similar story

The account was in arrears with penalties and interest charges racking up

When the "erroneous" payment went in, it was gobbled up to cover outstanding charges. The money essentially went into a black hole

There wouldn't have been any way for Gavin to have gotten the guys €3K back at that point in time.

That doesn't mean he shouldn't have paid him back once he got back on his feet

Terrible to see someone win by transfers. That is a strange take for an Irish election.
There won't be transfers in a 2 horse race.

Will Meehole throw FF weight behind Humphries now?

Surely it's still a 3 horse race if Gavin's name remains on the ballot papers?

Gavin is still on the ballot paper.
Someone wanting to make a point, say about Steen, could vote for him and put their real choice as no 2.

In theory Gavin could top the poll even though he's withdrawn? Strange that his name isn't removed.

FF wouldn't do that if FG benefit

Did the honourable thing though it looks bad, reminds me of Conal McDevitt who resigned over a trivial enough matter of £6k payment from his PR firm.

This is why governments world over suffer so much dysfunction.

The snake type would just brazenly continue and maybe even win.
