    Yep, it was in Neilstown, only happened a few minutes down the road from myself. Didn't hear shots as I was watching the match (vuvuzelas :pac:) but apparently things were pretty busy out there afterwards.

    If the rumours I'm hearing here and elsewhere are true, I think I know the child involved - if it is true there is a child involved at all!

    I really hope it is not true.

    who are the corbly brothers? any links to news stories etc?


    Google returns this - but wouldn't be so sure of the reliability:

    http://www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/article/ALeqM5jOxXKVx00SQsfdyju_sRRufpAcrA

    Google the name and area and you get a few past news articles.

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    Let's legalise all drugs

    Addicts would not have to steal / rob anymore to get what they need

    Scumbags would not have to kill each other to control this lucrative business

    Win-win for everybody except the scumbags who would be out of money

    /Sorry for rant...

    Right I've deleted a couple of posts that could have caused legal problems for boards.ie. Please refrain from any speculation.

    Remember that real people died here, they may have had previous criminal histories or been suspected fo various crimes but they also had families who will miss them regardless of what they have or haven't done in their lives.

    Also this thread is not the place to air your bigoted views on Dublin.

    I will be watching the thread closely because this is now an ongoing murder investigation and anything said in this thread could prejudice that investigation should it ever reach court. Any further speculation on who killed who or who did what will result in a thread-lock.

    Thanks :)

    I actualy think that some people on this forum should be ashamed of themselves the way they are talking. What if one of there relatives seen some of these posts, innocent relatives that have nothing to do with crime, no matter what the public think of these people they still have family that are only human aswel. Think before you speak vulgar words, im not sticking up for these people and what they have done in the past in any way,.

    There is something bugging me that another fellow poster asked o another thread a few days ago, never heard of these people up until this week but ive google there backround and previous news articles and found some interesting stories there one down below... is this all the one family or fued?

    The family whether involved or not know what these guys are like so can't be too surprised. Very few people are going to have any sympathy seeing these people being wiped out. I'd say the family would not expect sympathy from the general public either when the person killed has been involved in these things

    Thats a valid point, and i agree with you but some comments are uncalled for tbh... im not defending there crimes at all. I am just saying some people go over the top with there comments.
