To my great consternation I read more about the Sports Council's bullying of the IABA and its executives today.
Mulville said that he had serious problems with individual leaders of the IABA and that the IABA had 24 hours to reconsider the reappointment of Billy Walshe or the A SPORTS council ,which he seems to own ,would reconsider its funding of the IABA.
He had his chance to take on Joe Crystle the Chair of the IABAand most certainly one of the leaders of the IABA on National Radio last Friday but like every coward who meets his match he ran and hid for cover.
This wouldn't be the first time that Mulville ran for cover when he met real men.If memory serves me right he tried to intervene in the Cork hurlers strike some years ago but ran away when the going got tough.
Of course these Government appointed hacks feel free to bully everybody they deem unworthy and they consider defenceless.
In this they mimic the attitude of their political masters who have spewed a contempt for the populace which is the unholy child of fascist blue shirt father and an authoritarian Stasis East German type mother,which must face the murder run of abortion before it emerges,which is a serious threat to democracy.
Garrett the Good set up the LOTTO ,which denuded the plethora of voluntary organisation of finance and has made it into a political slush fund to buy up votes and has encouraged its organisers ,including the present Minister AND ITS EXECUTIVES TO BEHAVE LIKE LITTLE DICTatORS in administering money not even theirs .
Naturally the menopausal auld wans and their one trick pony panellists who deface RTE speak uno voce in favour of the Government which nourishes them.
These gob shites are so far up the arseholes of the Rugby failures that it is embarrassing to even listen to them spout total bullshit.
Just put JOE in the Ring against Melville and his sidekick Tracey.
Come on Crystle.

Joe Crystle a man of total honour.
My late father was a Welshman and proud of it.As a young man his sports of choice were rugby and boxing,He tried his hand at both and I don't know how successful he was .But I do know that these sports were the sports of choice of the ordinary people in Wales.
Which is probably why he continued to attend them when he moved here.
I well remember going to the National Stadium on the South Circular Road to watch National and International boxing matches with him.I enjoyed them immensely I must say.
This was long before the Sports Council and its its obnoxious politically appointed operatives were ever heard of.
Boxing people produced world rated combatants by the dint of hard work and through amateur effort.
And not to put a tooth in it was and is overwhelmingly the sport for tinkers and working class people,not for know all toffs who know as much about it as my arsehole knows about snipes hooting.
Recent events in South County Dublin illustrates perfectly just how Governments and their pet appointees have succeeded in killing off and persecuting tinkers and their families.
They.the Tinkers,and the working classes just don't rate which is probably why Kieran Mulvey and John Tracey felt totally at ease hogging the airwaves and threatening the IABA and its democratically elected officials with all sort of sanctions if said ASSOCIATION didn';t bend to their bullying and intimidating demands.
It goes without saying that neither man has any expertise whatsoever in boxing nor its promotion and I suggest would run a mile if confronted by a togged out opponent.
Singing from the same hymn sheet they have threatened over the airwaves to -
- Review the Sports Council funding off the IABA with repercussions going forward
- See how funding is given and establish from latest review of accounts just how it is spent
-Review IABA CHIEF'S Fergal Carruths role ,We pay him and are not happy.
--We pay the administrative staff and are not happy
--The Sports Council totally funds boxing and is unhappy.
In this these little Dictators have striven to drive a wedge between the democratically elected Officer Board and the imaginary ordinary membership .
Joe Crystle is the Chairman of the Board and I know him well.
His father,also Joe I think, and his brothers founded the Ras Tailteann and made it the international success it is .Needless to say no mouthpieces like Tracey nor Mulvey nor their ilk were around to help out.
The same man,a a Guinness employee,who self educated,founded Dublin Institute of Technology to give ordinary working people ,who had not the wherewithal to go to University, the chance to advance themselves.
It was rumoured that he blew up Nelson's Pillar in 86 although this has since been claimed by another boxer of renown.
As far as I know he died of cancer some years ago in Public Ward in DUBLIN HOSPITAL. AS A MATTER OF PRINCIPLE, ALTHOUGH HE COULD WELL HAVE USED THE OFFICES OF HIS SONS TO SAY GOODBYE IN MORE COMFORTABLE SURROUNDINGS.
He is buried in Kilmessan.
He has three sons ,Joe,Mel a Senior Counsel.and Terry a surgeon in Navan Hospital.
To my knowledge all three held the All Ireland Heavy weight crowns at different stages and boxed professionally .
If memory serves me correctly all three appeared on the same bill in Navan some years ago.
These guys have forgotten more about boxing than Tracey and Mulvihille will ever know.
Joe is a trained barrister and has not forgotten his boxing roots.
These guys were also formidable hurlers with Drimnagh Castle School years ago and ,although a little after my time often changed epic hostilities with my younger brothers in Cumann na Bunscoile competitions.
Borth families knew how to hurl and protect themselves.
Now as stated both Tracey and Mulvey have hogged the headlines belittling ,bullying and attempting to intimidate the IABA and its officers backed up by journalists who speak uno voce in their favour and sneering at the fact that the IABA was slow in responding.
Knowing JOE and in the certain knowledge that he is the sort of guy that would not countenance anything underhand nor improper I was not surprise that he gave the other side of the story on Radio and totally routed the mumbling mouthpiece Mulvey and a disturbingly partisan Des Cahill, from the fray.
Mulviey wouldn't be the first bully to turn and run when confronted by an intellectual and physical equal who he couldn#t intimidate and shout down.
I WOULD TRUST Joe WITH MY LIFE NO QUESTIONS ASKED.
As for the SPORTS COUNCIL and its mouthpieces THERE OUGHT BE A FULL ENQUIRY INTO ITS MODUS OPERANDI AND HOW THE PREJUDICES OF ITS MEMBERS DENY NATURAL JUSTICE TO THE BODIES IT CLEARLY THINKS IT OWNS,STARTING WITH THE MINISTER.
