We have been advised that there will be a protest on Saturday evening at Thurles , please take care when entering and exiting the property. Thurles Greyhound Stadium.

Racegoers should bring their pet or retired greyhounds with them tonight when they go racing and show those gobshites that we are not all going to be Tarred with the same brush, Just an idea lads its a chance to hit back at the gobs who know nothing about greyhounds.

Brian, who ever breast feeds you false information regarding me they must be short of things to do, you have already falsely accused me of claiming that people were using Cocaine at Thurles Just because i asked for the Final of a stake to be tested, if the IGB carried out their duties correctly we would not be in this mess, im done now with you Brian good luck with your assumptions in the future.

Brian, you say the people involved are the lowest of the low, I have never administered substances of any description to any of my greyhounds nor have i ever caused them unnecessary suffering, and i have never sent any greyhounds to CHINA. Brian as a matter of interest have you ever sent dogs to CHINA?????.

Brian i asked you a question and you never answered it never mind, now ill answer your question, First of all i will say that RTE blatantly used old material to tarnish us all with the same brush and some of their information was pure lies and nonsense, the Cocaine debacle has annoyed a lot of people because it has not been dealt with, and regarding Tony Walshes part what did the man say that was not already known to everyone and true.

Tell me this how did Tony get his part in the program was he approched or did he approch...any Greyhound person to be apart of such a program that was put together to rip our industry to shreds should be absolutely ashamed of himself we have Greyhound people on social media putting up pictures of how their dogs live people who are the absolute salt of the earth are put in a position where they have to convince the general public they are not the animals that program potrayed them to be...its a fu_king discrace... pardon my language...and no excuse or reason is acceptable as far as im concerned...

He was a disgrace Dave. He basically called everyone who's had any success in greyhound racing a drug cheat by talking about leaving the sport as he can't compete anymore because of drugs.
That is entirely inaccurate and slanderous towards the thousands of dog owners who run their dogs cleanly and successfully.

Dave explain how can Tony Walsh be the chairman of the IGOBF clg when Pat O Neill is the chairman of the IGOBF, the federation that is Recognized by the Seanad as being the official democratically elected federation that represents the affiliated GOBAS???? It's all a little confusing wouldn't you agree!!

I am a member of the Tipperary GOBA and i never saw you at any of the meetings.
What GOBA do you belong to Dave?
And also the IGOBF Clg claim that Tipp GOBA is affiliated to them????
How can that be????
Name five members from Tipp that support your IGOBF clg???
Name two if you havent got five??
In the interest of transparency for all.

Hi guys, I was at Kilkenny this evening and it was absolutely packed with ordinary families and their children, and not an Anti in sight. Retired greyhounds were paraded for every 11 races and one was 12 years old. All wearing velvet jacket saying RETIRED NOT RESCUED. Kilkenny people came out in droves. Also on one of the aniti's remarks on FB today, she stated that those trainers and owners (and they are a minority) ......... how little these people know about us only what they want to believe.

Having followed the link I find a story about an agreement between the IGB and the Judiciary regarding individuals protesting outside the gates at Shelbourne but I am at a loss in seeing how this will cost 'a heap of money'. I agree that someone has lost his marbles but it isn't the CEO.
