    I know, I’ve been trying but can’t find out who it is. I’m a Northside lad, I’m new to “the family” but from what I’ve been reading they are going about it the right way and must find the likes of the Gucci gang etc laughable

    He's good friends with an ex commissioner alright. Still never saw any issue with his journalism.

    He’s a spokesperson for the Gardai, and that’s how his articles are written, it’s ok if you don’t mind that perspective, but loses any deep understanding or balance in whatever criminal aspect he writes or speaks about.

    it is his job to get the best information he can and publish it. I cant think of a much better source than the people at the top.

    They are well known.

    They work with another lad from ballyer who was also recently targeted by CAB (He'd be very well known)

    Copy “Drug gang in leafy suburb is probed over its financial links to gym” Into Google - it’s an interesting article.

    Its not the source of his news that bothers me. If he gets it off the Garda Commissioner i couldn't care less. It's the trashy, sensationalist manner he writes about it. Or talks about it. Comes across as a bit of headline grabber who revels in it. Never has a sympathetic tone unlike say Paul Reynolds who just says it like it is minus the hyperbole. He's just an unlikeable person imo.

    Exactly. It's well known who these cats are. Surprised posters have to even ask.

    Been up to my ears in work all week so no chance to have a read during the day, every evening I come home its 50 pages of absolute ****ing nonsense. There used to be no chat or hearsay from down the chipper, a few regulars who between them could work out what was what, and never any whispers or opinion.

    Now the word "heinous' appears every two pages, and once the school bell goes its a free for all.

    Whats the reason so many posters here seem to have a beef with the photographer?

    Is it because some say he's an x Guard?

    Or, are people jealous he seems to get all the pics so fast?

    Yes, theres a few cabbages posting on here who think they have the solution to the drug problem figured out.

    Not what this thread is for.

    It’s been posted on here, some of it right but there’s some stuff that’s just guesswork and stuff left out too.

    Apart from having the initials correct of the people involved along with their location, it is more of a Chinese whisper version.
    If you flick back several pages on this thread, there was a very good synopsis given by a poster here.
