AlbertJ posted a topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
Congratulations to Pat McGrath from Carlow who won the Master McGrath Challenge with his dog Joey. The heats had some of the tightest finishes ever including John Humpries dog Rebel beating Fiona Devlin's dog by a nose. My congratulations to the NILRC and the Bannside Club for organising two excellent days of sport for the lurcher, terrier and whippet community and for the sporting manner in which the results were taken. Three fine dogs in the final of the All Ireland Championships Show with Des Mackin's terrier pipping a lovely little lurcher and a fine whippet. Judges Tom Barry, Tracy Gill -

Ireland Objection System At Shanes Castle Fair
AlbertJ posted a topic in Gamefairs, Meet Up's and Events
It is unfortunate that after quite a few terrier, whippet and lurcher events we get allegations of cheating, unfair judging, poor line judging decision, breeding of dogs etc. To make sure the terrier, lurcher and whippet events at the Game Fair at Shanes Castle are run as fairly as possible- as I indicated in an earlier post - anyone can make an objection on the basis of making it a formal written objection and lodging £40 with me or at HQ. The objection will be investigated by a committee that I will put together with a member of the organising club, myself and an independent person -
