    It's Dobbo doing the interviewing. lol

    He is just after saying that if they (the tribunal) had approached him with the issues they had with his (finances), he would have clarified them and they would have no reason to call his secretary !!! LOL The brass neck of the guy!!

    And there is no further money, the only money issue is the cost of the tribunal and the substantive issue is did he recieve money from Eoin O Callaghan..NO being the answer! He has a point there, to be fair to him.

    Incredible. The man gets documents showing that they were calling Ms Carruth and why. And then he uses the excuse that they did not ASK him. Did he not think to tell them 'listen guys. You don't have to ask her. I'll give you the answers!'.

    And now he claims the Sterling was simply his own money changed. Does he think we are all idiots? So someone gets a cheque in punts. They change it to sterling and then change them straight away back to punts. Why in the hell would he do that?
