As if they haven't had enough problems in the last few years.

Oh well, it could be our way of paying them back for the golf ball attacks in 1996.

Good luck to John Ward, who is a decent man, even if he failed here. Perhaps he'll be able to set Joe Dunne up with a new job, he may be looking for one before long.
