    €100 straight bet that Mary Lou takes a seat at Ryan's expense...

    Mary Lou takes third seat then you give me €100.

    Ryan takes third seat then I give you €100.

    Anyone else finishes third then bet is void.

    Any takers???

    I won't take it but I admire your confidence on this one.

    I am sure you will find someone equally confident that she won't take the seat.

    If she loses I will drive my ice cream van around the centre of Dublin playing "Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead" if you like.

    I work in Dublin City Centre so could meet, or I could post it to you, or I could give it to an agreed third party.

    Paypal either I suppose.

    Based on the turnout figures in SF's best areas in my constituency, I think Mary Lou could be in for a long tough day tomorrow.
    "Elite - a small superior group; esp one that has a power out of proportion to its size." (Oxford English Dictionary)

    The majority cannot therefore be the elite.

    i think a FGer should take your bet! They wont want Ryan to win at all but itl put them in a "win-win" situation! If Ryan loses they'll be delighted! But if ryan wins, theyl be p*ssed off, but not as much coz the the crisp 100 note in their pocket.....!



    on a serious note, i doubt you'll get any takers at all!
