Drumm is very exposed now, that news 2 weeks back about loan re-classifications from commercial to development has caused a total collapse of market confidence

By far the biggest loser amongst Ireland's bank bosses has been Anglo Irish chairman and former chief executive Sean FitzPatrick. At the top of the market in early 2007 his 4.5 million Anglo shares were worth almost €80m. By yesterday these shares were worth just €1.6m.

"Yawn , am I alive yet ?"
He borrowed 87 million?
How did he explain it?
"Well, we're putting up new curtains..."

Still, even as the investor consensus ravages the euro, it's worth remembering that the same herd instinct not long ago was pronouncing last rites for the dollar. Last year, as China's central bank chief called for a new global currency and Russian central bankers dumped greenbacks to buy euros, many saw the dollar's decline as inevitable. Now, the dollar is riding high, and the euro looks bedraggled.

This bank is a shining example of the worst corporate excesses of the celtic tiger.
This bank needs to be wound up.
Cookie won't like that when he sees it.

It can't be wound up because everyone is wound up in the windup to the woundup.
Has the Clown resigned from the Aer Lingus Board aswell or is it just his own personal piggy bank that he has quit?
