It was Xano.
Heard a story last week about an ex-LOI player who was lifted by the Gardai about 6-8 weeks ago with 1/2 a million worth of drugs in his boot. now obviously this is a serious thing and dont know how true it is so i'm not going to mention names etc. Apperently he has been refused bail because of the runner another ex-LOI player did a while back.
Has anyone else heard anything like this?
It was Xano.
Yep I heard the story and I know who the player is
Appreciate that people so far are keeping names out of this by the way; if anyone does start speculating without links, the posts will be deleted for obvious reasons!
Edit - really obvious clues count as naming as well, especially if google can throw back an answer in 30 seconds.

If someone is caught with 1/2 million euro worth of drugs in their car surely it's in a news article somewhere online?
I think a keeper we had in the 94/95 title winning side is either awaiting trial or currently inside. Ps we had 2 keepers that year and it wasn`t Jody Byrne.
#DundalkFC - First Irish club to win an away game in Europe (1963), only Irish club to win a game / points in Europa League Group Stage (2016).
Warning folks- anyone who starts throwing names about will be the recipient of a ban.
Who Cares?!
I remembered that, I thought this was different with the 6-8 weeks mention.
Why would the actions of one ex-LOI player in respect of bail have any impact upon the bail hearing of another ex-LOI player ??Surely it would have more to do with the likelihood of jumping the state - which is unconnected to someone's previous employment (unless they were a private airplane pilot or something that made jumpign state ridiculously easy).
I'm sure judges appreciate that LOI players aren't a distinct breed or race.....![]()
not wishing to get technical but you can freely name anyone here seeing as the defamation, libel, slander laws etc do not cover internet or new media etc. i know that from my law classes in my masters in journalism. do having said that it is best to err on the side of caution
Putting allegations in writing about a named individual can constitute libel. There's always people willing to complain to dahamsta (as site owner) about stuff like that (much less than that, in fact). I don't care what journalists have been telling you (I rarely listen to them at the best of times), naming names is not on.
Edit - Dublin man jailed for internet libel, 1999.
Think Mark has got things mixed up here so
Ah well its only the internet, I wouldnt think anyone knows your identity so dont be worrying![]()
i've checked the lecture notes and adn that what it says!
any the tax payer paid for my course
as i say, best not to mention names either way
Media law is a thorny bushel of grey areas and trip wires in which it is best to take nothing for granted. Throwing names around speculatively - whether in a newspaper or on some internet forum - is not a good call.
