O Dulachain's Lament ... and other old songs

Conclusion of letter from company solicitor Neil McNelis to the shareholders of ATSL - 1-1-2019


Cormac O Dulachain SC's wonderfully vague ''Agreed Statement to the Court'', from May 23rd 2019



Excerpt from Affidavit of Declan Molloy from November 18th 2019, dealing from paragraph 14 with the events of May 23rd 2019. [It should be noted that this affidavit was unchallenged by the opposition]






Excerpt from Affidavit of Cieran Temple from March 22nd 2019, as drafted by Cormac O Dulachain SC. Paragraph 5 deals with the differences between our company and Athlone Town AFC Ltd. 


                      


                Minutes of (purported) Meeting of Athlone Town FC - May 19th 2017


                                       Minutes of AGM of Athlone Town FC - June 28th 2017                                       [This was primarily a vehicle to pass Motion vii (illegally presented, in defiance of Rule 37 of the Club: ''The agenda of the Annual General Meeting and any Special Meeting shall be published in the local press at least seven days before the Meeting and shall include details of any Notices of Motion''). The motion itself is misleading, as it refers to a company which had been incorporated on July 20th 2015. The constitution was not given to the members prior to their vote. One member Gerry MacManus was refused entry to the meeting by the paid security guard]

A Cuckoo in the Nest

    Just one hour ago, a Mr. Pat Keegan (I think) delivered court documents/summons/whatever to me on behalf of Mr. Richard Stapleton, the solicitor of Garda David Dully and, depending on who you talk to, a relative or not of Mr. Michael O'Connor (the man in the video). I have no intention of opening the envelope, but I will continue to fight for justice by whatever means are available to me ... including here. I'm no longer scared of them or their courts.    I don't know how much it cost to travel to the World Cup from Ireland, but the American company Sports Travel Fan was doing an eight night stay and three matches for $11,685 (or E10,636).    Based on the tax returns of Athlone Town AFC CLG and making the surely reasonable assumption that its two directors split their 'remuneration' 50-50, Michael O'Connor paid himself E37,500 in 2019, E37,500 in 2020 and E37,500 in 2021. There is no reason to think he didn't pay himself a further couple of E37,500...

Associated 2 - The Drag

Sometimes the little things are the most revealing. In Court 24 on one of the many days when I believed that there was a point in turning up, three barristers standing at the back of the court were having a conversation. One of them said  ''Nobody ever questions the costs of litigation when the State is paying'' and they laughed.  Two months ago, the High Court ordered the taxpayer to hand over half a million euro to the ex-Athlone Town (the old club) player Michael Sheehan. Sheehan had a bit of a contretemps with the Gardai at closing time in Athlone eleven years ago. It appears that Mr. Sheehan got a bit mouthy after two others in his company were caught acting the maggot in the middle of the street. It was probably an overreaction to charge Sheehan under the Public Order Act. In the cold light of day, feelings might have been hurt but no blood was shed and the incident doesn't sound like it should have been a big deal for anyone involved. But the jury didn't ...

Just to let readers know that the post was deleted by Bloogger.com, not by me. It was flagged for review and judged to have violated the website's Threats and Harassment policy. It is funny how bullies always turn cry baby when their targets find an effective way of fighting back. That said, from Blogger.com's point of view the decision is understandable. The service has already given us a lot and its community guidelines are reasonable and deserve to be adhered to. So from now on, I will adjust future content to err on the side of passive resistance.                                                                     ***** I have three responsibilities:  1. to achieve justice for my company. Not to ensure that my company wins, but to ensure that its hard fought for evidence is considered and weighed against the op...
