Probably spent more wedge in Limerick that either the council or the government. Why line the pockets of Dail with his tax when he can put money to good use!l

DGC - I can't believe the amount of people who defend how much the rich pay in tax. Those moaning about having to pay 50% on anything over 150,000 a year must be living on another planet. As you say 5% paying the most tax but 95% of the population living on thin air after essentials. The rich have a terrible way of trying to justify their extremely fortunate financial situations. Most of them get round the tax bands via corporation tax and other such get outs. Personally if i earned more than 150 grand a year i'd be moaning about very little financially speaking. Perhaps JP should launch a singing career then he wouldn't be paying much tax at all under Irish law.

If you want to see a likeable owner win a big race, you're in for a long wait.

No fan of JP McManus, but delighted for McCoy.

Ballyhackcharmer,

Well, seeing as I AM a fan of David Beckham and various other people who in my view have amassed fortunes by dint of hard work and providing entertainment to the public, you can rule out jealousy over wealth as my motive.

I'll leave it at that - we can all like or dislike who we please.
