FULL OF CHEATS ALL THEM GIRLS FROM ARMAGH, ONE IS SAID TO HAVE WHIPPET AND COLLIE IN HER DOGS PEDIGREE AND EVERY BODY KNOWS IT CAME FROM RUDDYS

 

i know another one from ruddy to i heard today and she she be ashamed to after the trouble she was in one time

 

Ladies & Gentlemen - very loosely speaking! You do your sport no good whatsover by throwing allegations about and turning people against each other. At a time when I think terrier & lurchers are going to come under even greater scrutiny and threat it is a time for coming together and organising not fighting over the breeding of dogs. Allegations are easy to make but difficult to prove. There will always be suspicions and I regret to say envy about really fast dogs especially those which are bred closer and closer to greyhounds. That is why we introduced the new Novice Racing which - if we decide to carry on with terriers & lurchers at our shows - and that is at present uncertain after 2012 - will be extended in 2013.

 

My personal congraulations to the terrier/cross group who displayed great enthusiasm for the new events.

 

Regarding allegations of 'cheating' at Ballywalter - NO ONE OBJECTED ON THE DAY - I took the decision to classify Kirsty's dog as such she ran legitimately. AND the guy who ran 2nd did not object - he was the one who was most affected by my decision and I have been in touch with him and have duplicated the prize Kirsty won. The Harpurs have now agreed with me amicably that the dog be re- classifed for our future shows. That is the end of the matter.

Albert,

as you know I have been attending these events for many years and I have a few all-ireland titles under my belt. My dog Maverick has been an exceptional dog at both racing and showing, he is getting older now and no person has ever approached me with a problem with the dog. I have kept and bred 4 generations of this bloodline ,and have put together some of the best collie/greyhound whippet bloodlines in the country into my lines and I am extremely proud of the results I have achieved. There are numerous close relations of the dog still around the shows . As I plan to continue working, racing and showing my line of dogs that a few are intensely jealous off, I am arranging a DNA test for the Maverick to prove my word is good. I would like if you could be present at this appointment ?

If I can I would be delighted to be present. Allegations are easy to make!

Ballywalter is now over and against a backdrop of economic doom and gloom and uncertain weather, the event took another step forward in terms of number & quality of exhibitors and overall attendance. Overall I thought our terrier,lurcher and whippet judges did a good job. Now we move on to Shanes Castle on the 7th & 8th July for our 25th All Ireland Terrier, Whippet & Lurcher championships ( show & racing) and our Master McGrath & Novice Challenges. Racing will be on Saturday and Showing Sunday. The fair is also very special to me as it is my 50th Fairs since I brought the Game Fair concept to Ireland in 1978.

 

We will be bringing in some new rules to see if we can put to bed the allegations of cheating and disputes over racing once and for all. I say allegations because, to date, no one has proven that anyone cheated. One of these rules will be that anyone who feels they have a legitimate complaint can lodge £20 and make an objection THERE and THEN. We will not consider complains after the event including those from people who weren't there! If the complaint is upheld the objector gets his or her money returned. If the objection is not upheld the money s forfeit and will go to a cancer charity.

 

I genuinely hope we can have a large, trouble free and enjoyable event which will justify the time and effort we have put into organising it.

 

I hope to be at Mourne Show , as a spectator, on Sunday I would be delighted to meet any of you who have had a disagreement with me on any subject. I feel that we should be able to agree to disagree!

Well ive seen it all now !! you spot a blatant cheat, you point it out and it buys matt his dinner ffs Albert catch a grip man ! many moons ago my lad competed with his pony and if you had a beef you had to pay a fee within a timeframe...has it came to this???/?? ok so what happens when all the complains floods in on the line ? do you stand the cheater down or do they get there trophy after coning everyone ? Albert your all about money and the matts too Gone are the days of 15 yeras ago when a trophy and a smile ended the day WISE THE FXXK UP

[AlbertJ 569]

Are you for for real!

 

A similar system applies in KC shows - if you want to lodge an objection you lodge a fee which is returned if your complaint is upheld AND Forfeit if it is not. If your complaint is genuine it would not be buying anyone a dinner! . Easy to complain and make allegations and what is even funnier lots of the people who make allegations on this forum were not even at the events they complain about. At least this system will filter out the people who do not have the balls to make a complaint except behind an alias and who whinge for weeks afterwards on the internet!

 

In 2013 we are thinking we will take a more money orientated approach to events within our fairs and like other organisers NOT put any money into those events which appear to attract only poor sportmanship AND wild allegations- anyone think of which events will be the first to go!

 

As I said before we don't need to AND WILL NOT in future put good money into getting insulted by guys who don't have the balls to post under their real names!

Here here well said I am not the only one thinks your a tit

[flash3241 32]

Nice to c u back again dog balls between u an wetnoseman use make a fine pair of tits but who's complaining

[AlbertJ 569]

Here here well said I am not the only one thinks your a tit

 

Well I probably am for putting up with people like you. I, at least, am not afraid to make my comments under my own name not hide behind an alias.

 

I think you should go back to 'cheer leading' for Moira! That appears to be the only event or people you support!

 

AlbertJ

[Wetnoseman 26]

well moira isnt all about money so should be a good day out and there be no Lees !!

[AlbertJ 569]

An interesting point of view - HANDS UP ALL OF THE TERRIER, WHIPPET & LURCHER competitors who don't like a good prize fund and prize money?

 

I must have got it totally wrong in persuading my colleagues to treat TL&W enthusiasts the same as other country sports competitors such as clay pigeon, gundog and anglers and let them compete INSIDE the fair and to put an investment of several thousands of pounds of our money into giving them a similar prize fund to other sports in terms of good trophies and prize money. Now if you want us to reduce the prize funds to equivalent to Moira then that can be very easily and profitably arranged!
