It’ll be interesting to see who pitches up at the funeral
He’ll be lowered into the grave then they’ll do a pour over him.
Every now and then you get a glimmer … The double barrel surname discussion on another thread really exposed a lot misogynists…no consideration given to the idea of a woman wanting to keep her surname after marriage …
This fella used to be called Gregg Roughley. I’d say he’s very secure in himself in good way that he decided to take his wife’s surname.
Big Liverpool supporter too.

Why did they shred all the documents for his trial? I presume the chap that did that has since been prosecuted, or at least sacked? Lol
Seanie was a lucky boy he got out when he did. Drummer shoved him out of the way at just the right time. Classic Drummer, a nearly man.
Seanie Fitz reminds me of Bertie, while both should have ended up in jail, the lack of adoration in retirement which they would have been expecting in life, was at least a little justice for them.
Supposedly Seanie was a very nice man to deal with in real life. Just not as smart as he thought he was. Like all these fellas being lionised in the bidness section every Sunday.
Seanie was a decent centre with Greystones first XV
Will you go along?

I might go for a bit of celeb spotting

Shane Ross will be deleting a few articles from the Google records today.
I don’t think that Seanie escaped the wrath of the public - in fact he is probably the first man mentioned on the street in relation to the dodgy bankers of the time.
Nice fella to deal with or not he was a crook.
Seanie put in an energetic round on a golf course near Malaga about 6 weeks ago. I wonder what happened since then?
No but he was away for a lot of the real messing that went on at the very end. All these Anglo lads lost fortunes as well. They weren’t defrauding people as such, they genuinely believed their own hype
I worked there briefly in the mid 2000s. Passage of time and being drunk at the time mean I recall very little. Seanie Fitz used to deliver a Friday morning pep talk in the board room and it was an open invite to all staff. It started at something ridiculous like 7am. It was one of those ones where it wasn’t mandatory to attend but it was frowned upon if you didn’t. You’d have line managers reminding their teams about it on Thursday evenings. Standing room only, everyone squashed in, listening and learning about the Anglo way.
I heard an amusing tale about a cleaner, a janitor and a phone handset in that very boardroom
I did a few months in the Limerick office myself as a young buck, a load of fellas who thought they were fucking class because they were lashing out loans to anyone who asked for them, the bigger the better. He wants €5m to build apartments in Charleville, go back to him and see will he take €7m.
Lads in their twenties making savage money and then having stock options worth a nice bit as well. A great early lesson to get in life not to confuse your luck with talent
Tis better be lucky than talented they say.

A great place to work though. Free bar every Friday

Ah come on.
The Golden Circle share buying stuff was fraud.
When the shit hit the fan the bollixology started
Lead story on 6.01. I hope to fuck they don’t make a documentary about him as well.
