Clearly. They were all counting the beans in '06.
Depends on the size of the client.
Depends on the chances of getting caught.

Michael Healy Rae of truth made shit of mac last night, fucking destroyed him. While that simpleton quinn bleated on about a vision and a club he he has run into the english third tier.
Well that isn’t true. He’s been gone for a long time now and their collapse coincided with his departure. He did a great job there

The Leinster Senior League are balloting their member clubs to see if they want the board changed. They sent a private email to each club and are disappointed it was leaked onto social media
Queen was spending money like confetti, he had three houses in Durham

Quinn lost a fortune on his broadband company. Part of the reason why he ended up on Sky and sold his house.
Former Ireland soccer international, Niall Quinn is set for a loss of around €2.5m on his ill-fated Co Carlow property venture.
Quinn confirmed yesterday an offer has been made for the ‘ghost’ 15 one-and-two bedroomed apartment block and adjoining pub built by his firm, Manorfield Taverns Ltd, in Bagenalstown.
However, the former Sunderland chairman is on the hook for a 50% or €2m share of the €4.1m personal guarantee provided to AIB on loans taken out by the firm to develop the apartment block.
The apartment block has never been occupied and new accounts filed by Manorfield Taverns Ltd with the Companies Office show losses at the firm last year further increased by €324,202 to €5.6m, due mainly to a further write-down.
The apartment block is expected to realise in excess of the property’s book value of €590,308 due to the current upturn but will still leave Quinn nursing a loss of around €2.5m from the venture.
Quinn owns a 50% share of Manorfield with Dublin developer, Cosmo Flood and in an interview yesterday, Mr Quinn said: “It wasn’t the best investment I have ever made, but I have other interests that keep the show on the road. I have got to take this one on the chin and move forward with other things.”
Mr Quinn conceded he will be left with “a big loss” from the investment.
The Bagenalstown property was put up for sale a number of months ago after the leaseholder of the adjoining pub ceased trading and Mr Quinn said that he hoped to finalise a deal soon on the offer made.
He said: “You win some and you lose some and like everyone I am hopeful of a better future than the last number of years. Like everyone else we have re-adjusted.””
New accounts for Manorfield Taverns Ltd show that the firm wrote down its assets by €209,692 last year and Mr Quinn said: “The firm didn’t trade last year and the write-down is associated with the leaseholder of the pub ceasing trading. The firm thought it prudent to record the write-down.””
Manorfield has bank loans totalling €4.62m, in addition to the €1.2m loan Quinn provided, and the Dubliner has given a written undertaking not to seek repayment of this loan for the foreseeable future.
QSat?
He’s branched into the conspiracy theory business now with QAnon.
Incidentally Quinn started off doing punditry on Sky immediately after he retired in 2002 but then left before coming back to it.
Actually his debut in punditry came way back when was co-commentator with George Hamilton during the 1994 World Cup when he was recovering from his cruciate injury. He did the Eire-Italy game at Giants Stadium anyway.
