    I don't think it's a WUM; at best it's badly phrased. The entire post makes it quite clear what happened though.

    For clarity, I've changed the title to "wrecked", but I don't see the need for histrionics about it one way or the other.

    Yep I thought, Revenue, Gardaí or NAMA too. Probably says a lot about the current economic situation that we seem to associate the word raid with such activities.

    Offices broken into or vandalised would be a more appropriate title. I'm not sure it was a deliberate wind up though.

    Bad form alright. Anyone with a grudge against the global game?

    Can we change the title again please, as the new one is clearly also a WUM.

    I thought it meant that a Germanic tribe had attacked the premises on their way through from ancient Rome.....

    Very good!

    Thanks for the change, it's a rotten situation when your premises have been broken into, I just went through it and christ I'd love to get hold of the scum who did it! I was thinking though, surely there is cctv there and the crim's were picked up on it.

    ALternatively I was thinking it could be an inside job - maybe the Indo will do some research into the insurance details of the FAI in relation to the FAI Cup - maybe it's valued at 74.5million, therefore JD was right when he said "I'd write a cheque in the morning", he'd even have change for a new set of blazers!

    It wasn't. It's not my fault if people jump to conclusions, probably should have said wrecked or smashed on reflection. Apologies to whomevers sense of propriety I may have innadvertently offended.

    Is there any indication whether this was local GAA heads, the window-breaking element of another LoI fanbase, or anything else more specific than German barbarians?

    That didn't help his wife, but you're probably safe - he's currently two years into a nine year jail sentence.

    "Whom" isn't just a fancier way of writing who, you know.
