Reminds Me of the Box Office Show that was the FAI investigations.

Alot of shouting by politicans tryna win votes, grabbing for headlines, People step down, lessons are learnt , everyones backs covered, lessons are learnt and no one is found culpible.

and a reminder that John Delaney has still not gone to trial over the FAI fiasco

Depressing country to live in sometimes

No point really. Even if he was found guilty he'd only get a suspended sentence.

What crime would you have expected anyone to go on trial for with FAI or RTE fiasco? What act do you think was illegal?

There are certainly grounds for JD to be prosecuted ffs. There's a bloody trial in process...eventually.

I know there is grounds for JD to be proscuted, my point is, it still hasnt happened. These lads can hide out playing the legal game, It loses pubic interest. The whole thing can get thrown out of somehting minor. and everyone moves on and the tax payer picks up the legal fees

Will he take over the James Corden gig in the US?

Heard on the radio yesterday that they are cutting the length of the late late show from 2 hours to hour and a half, and still have the same amount of adverts in that time.

I'm sure another 330k dressed up in other complex hidden payments.

When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

I bet he regrets taking advise years ago to operate as a contractor rather than an employee now.

I bet he regrets ever hiring Noel Kelly as his agent. Kelly was almost certainly behind the press release a couple of days ago that finished him off at RTE also.

I doubt he does given the contracts he has negotiated for him in the past.

Doubt employee was ever on the table for him. RTE wants most of their presenters to contracts, given they can fall out of flavour just as fast as they become flavour of the month
