He is still a Bohs fan ..... I thought at the time he spoke loads of sense but i think he was a bit ahead of his time. The people who he approached just couldn't see the bigger picture. Shame really !!

I think most people saw him as a political chancer.... Where is he now if he was really so concerned?

He started off well ... taking a lot of time to answer questions on the message board .. and I thought that the many progressive contributions (at that time anyway) on the EL Messageboard, were going to get some publicity, and a wider audience .. and that he was going to represent us, and fight for the cause. But then he just disappeared ... I don't live in the country, so I was wondering if he was still appearing on TV or wheeled out for Questions and Answers and the like.

I see he has a webpage and is he is now a "number one best selling author" ...

Biographical Details

Born in 1961, Michael Nugent lives in Dublin, Ireland, with his partner Anne Holliday and their five cats. The Irish Times has profiled him as “witty, bright, articulate and hardworking… a bundle of energy and talent... fellow students remember him as a brilliant academic...” He is a number one bestselling writer, and has spent years studying happiness.

Michael is also a peace and social campaigner. He co-founded the Irish Peace Train. As chair of New Consensus, he led mass peace rallies and, with others, picketed and chained himself to the office gates of paramilitary front-groups.

Barking...

He is active in neighbourhood watch and community groups. In 1999 he ran for election with Fine Gael, Ireland's second-largest political party.

...and a blueshirt.

No wonder his name ends up on the same thread as Alan Hunter.

I think its unfair to include Nugent with the likes of Hunter.

I think Nugent may have meant well or he was a political chancer. He did seemed to be at least hold a reasonable discussion although easy enough to catch him on questions he couldn't answer. Nugent has however disappeared off the football map once the Sky Sports issue was "resolved".

OK. OK. I'm being cruel to get a few cheap laughs. I've never heard him speak, unlike Hunter. It's just the 'studying happiness' bit that tickled me.

Sounds like that Scientology lot with their 'personality tests'.
