:frowning:

they can take Loughnane but give us back Bill

His only downside was that he was from Cork. Other than that he appeared to be a gentleman. RIP :frowning:

promoting tobacco isnt the actions of a gentleman mate

The Yes brigade have a lot to answer for now.

I never saw him promoting tobacco. Would it have been before my time or what was his role?

FFS, some decorum please, now is not the time for this my dick is bigger than yours type shit

Poor auld bill is holding his permanently now

his job until today was to lobby the government for the tobacco industry, he was close to FG and arranged meetings between FG and the tobacco industry. He also defended the carry on that was going on in rehab

That’s me clamped mate. Thanks for the info.

I don’t feel as sad upon hearing this as I did when I heard that Derek Davis had died.

RIP Bill

Ah FFS. There won’t be anyone left in the country that I know when I go home next. RIP Bill, you were a decent oul sort (leaving aside the PR company conflicts. His PR company btw was hugely successful and profitable). Having to put up with those two oul biddy’s talking shite about football year in and out must have taken it’s toll.

due to cronyism

I read about his death on the back of packet of 20 Major. Rip Bill.
