http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/FreePatHickey

Pat Hickey is a servant of the Irish people and friend to all of us, RTE, Fianna Fáil, Denis O'Brien, Fionnan Sheehan, Leo Varadkar, Putin and Pat Rabbitte.

Pat, now aged 71 and infirm, has been smeared, humiliated and arrested in a half naked state for simply trying to make a few bob. Unnamed sources have shown evidence to the Irish Independent of links between the Brazilian Police and Sinn Féin. This conspiracy to destroy the reputation of a good man must be exposed and stopped now.

Pat has had his €800 per day payments stopped and is been given only three meals a day with a very limited menu. This inhumane treatment must stop and Pat Hickey must be flown back to Ireland immediately.

5 signatures so far, 995 to go.

Comments are class as well.

Joseph (Sepp) BlatterIreland, Dublin Aug 19, 2016 Agreed. The inhumanity of a not being allowed run a large sports organisation for self profit is unbelievable. The poor man deserves all our support.

Justice for Pat!
Bertie AhernIreland, Cork Aug 19, 2016 Don't let the bastards get you down.
Matt SlaterBrazil Aug 19, 2016 No man should be punished for running to his child's hotel room at 7am so he can have a bath.
Ryan TubridyIreland Aug 19, 2016 Pat Hickey has been smeared by the Irish left while not being here to defend himself. Release Pat now. We need guests for the Late Late Show and Pat fits the bill.
Miriam O'CallaghanIreland Aug 19, 2016 Pat Hickey is a genuinely good man who has shared brunch with the O'Callaghans on many genuinely wonderful occasions. We've a genuinley wonderful brown soda bread, organic smoked salmon and scrambled eggs waiting for him in Shanahan's on the Green when he returns, hopefully soon. And a couple of glasses of genuinely wonderful prosecco.

Back to death.

Duffy, get some professional help, ye ghoul!!!!!

"I'm going to Killarney tonight because of a girl in a wheelchair", says Dickie.

Nothing to do with the money, of course.

Just noticed the RTE-branded disposable coffee cups. Wonde rhow much they were so to speak?


RTE Buying Office: We need more disposable coffee cups. How much are they?
Catering company: They start at €250 for 10,000units.
RTE Buying Office: What colour are they?
Catering company: They're just plain white
RTE Buying Office: Have you anything fancier? We have some very high profile celebrities and important people coming in and out of here daily don't you know?
Catering company: Well we have more expensive ones alright, it really depends on how much you want to pay and what you want on the cups?
RTE Buying Office: Could we get the RTE logo on them?
Catering company: Yes, but there's a 12 week lead time and they're very expensive
RTE Buying Office: Don't worry about the price. How much are they?
Catering company (after brief pause, and completely chancing his arm): How does €1,000 for 250units sound?
RTE Buying Office: Like a bargain! We have a deal.
Catering company (after another pause): The minimum order now is 10,000units.
RTE Buying Office: So? Don't bore me with the details.
Catering company: ooooookkkk, I'll do up the invoice then. That's 10,000units @ €1,000 per 250 = €400,000. Are you sure the plain white ones won't do?
RTE Buying Office: What do you think we are, animals?

Holy crap, they take things literally the Brazilians "Bangu Prison" or is it "Bang-U" Prison so to speak.

From wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangu,_Rio_de_Janeiro

The neighborhood was originally part of the neighborhood of Bangu, the region where the penitentiary of Bangu is located, besides Bangu dump.

The Bangu Penitentiary Complex is a maximum security prison, composed of 17 penal units. Nine of them are penitentiaries (only the Talavera Bruce is a women's prison), one is a penal institute, four are safehouses, one is a penal sanatorium and there are two hospitals

Sounds nice. He should have stayed at home and kept his fingers in the till here.

For all the **** we have to put up with in this banana republic this scandal is glorious :pac:

He's looking for tickets...,

I've not been to prison myself but I'd say at 71 Pat will be fairly far down Bubba's list of prospective beeyatches so to speak.

If that were Ireland, he'd be reclining on a chaise longue, listening to John Bowe performing Chopin in the Mountjoy V.I.P. Unit Training Unit, whilst Willie McAteer practiced his putting.

If that were Ireland he'd be at home, while a "file is sent to the DPP" and a cabal of politicians, media people and "personalities" jump to his defence and try to bury the whole saga. He'd have his passport as he'd hand in a written reference that he's a "very decent hard-working man" and would be free to fcuk off wherever he wants to.

In fact if that was Ireland nothing would have been done, the proof of that he's been pulling this stunt for decades and nothing has been done.

Ticket touting is welcomed here by the government, here's a minister opening up a new office for Viagogo, a known ticket touting company.






Oddly enough Joe Duffy was ranting against ticketmaster touting tickets a few months ago, wasn't he? He seems to have forgotten that.

He'd probably be invited onto Marian Finucane too. She has a special place in her heart for his type. She seems to have a retainer on Frank Flannery.

In fact, I remember an interview Hickey did with Marian a few years back. He said he'd write a tell-all memoir after he retired. Plenty of time on his hands now.

I heard him commentating on one of the soccer matches a couple of days ago. He must have been doing it from a studio in RTE so.
Surely a lot more of them could have done the same as we never see them on screen anyway.
