fat man 4,741 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 I personally don't think JB gave or gives a flying f**k about the the lads in the book or the irish diging digging men full stop.I know a lot of the lads in the book,good honest diging men but bluck then goes and bans them from his site because they don't play ball with what he has to say.I have also seen him mention certain men as peddlers on his countrywise site,well he is no different as everytime he is on he is either tryiny to sell his books,mags.souviners,or maybe a game fair,to me he is not a dog man he is a money grabing arsehole.He now says he has his own line of black dogs,its only a couple of year back he was saying the same about his borders,and where is the border club he started?. 8 Quote Link to post

Rycas 0 Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Interesting thread, there is mention that Seamus Erwin bought a bitch called Tar from a bloke in Wales? Nope, he got that bitch from K.Smith in Glengormley,who got the bitch direct from Bill Brightmore. I may be wrong but wasn't K.Smith one of the first lads to keep Patterdales in Norn Iron? I know a few lads from Rathcoole and Monkstown had terriers that he bred. Quote Link to post
Wirey 23 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Rycas, is that breeding still about? Quote Link to post
Rycas 0 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Wirey. We are talking near thirty years ago here when Seamus put Blade over Tar but I'm sure there is a strong possibility that there are terriers about that can be traced back to Blade x Tar. Seamus would be the best man to know. Quote Link to post
BlackBuck 655 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 There's an interview with Ken smith in one of the old terrier year books . An absolute gentleman he was , kept some real decent dogs too . Quote Link to post
