Gerry Ryan was and will be for a very long time to come Irelands best ever broadcaster. He was simply the best. He DID take the paycut by the way. Yes, he had a weakness, probably a lot more than we will ever know, in that he was no different to you or me. hopefully god will bless him as I hope he blesses those who have seen fit to post some very nasty comments about a good man.
@bernard1027 YOU MENTION HIS WEAKNESS ..AS IF IT WAS NOT THAT IMPORTANT....HIS WEAKNESS AS YOU PUT IT ,KEPT THE MURDERING DRUG SCUMBAGS GOING,,,,HE WAS A TWO FACED TOSSOR
Disgusted to have to read such poorly opinionated comments by loathing jealous muppets!!! You and your pessimismis what is to blame for Direlands doom and gloom, have some respect for the dead and quit the shite.
@conisme Actually it's the likes of Gerry and his Celtic Tiger money-hungry ilk that are to blame for the doom and gloom. Now we know why he refused to take that pay cut; coke is pretty cha-ching.
To me, Gerry Ryan represented all that was wrong with Ireland during the Celtic Tiger years. His arrogant free loading, refusal to take a cut on his overpaid salary...he was a pig of a man, listen to him scoff pastries in the mornings and talking about mrs. Ryans knickers...I am happy that I don't have to hear his voice anymore, happy that I only occasionally see his fat pig head in the paper instead of every day and happy to find out that he was a hypocritical coke fiend. I would certainly giv
Gerry typical RTE freeloader ..allways name droped hotels, resturants,louie copeland, ahh the list go's on ,, had to be shamed into a pay cut ,,to make him look like he cared ..
Still unbelievable to think he's gone. The Gerry Ryan show played every morning in my mothers kitchen, for as far back as I remember. Your voice will be missed by so many every day.
Gerry, we love you, we miss you so so much, tears are streaming as I write, its been over two months and the ache so many have is still all to near,. you were part of us all. What a life, what a loss, what a man,
NoelDublin2302 how dare you accuse Bono of having an American accent. That is not an American accent, it's a FAKE AMERCIAN ACCENT!!! Ha! Ha! Fame destroys the soul!!! "The Tumbling Man"
sincerely hope gerrys family realise how much he was loved and how much he will be missed, i think it was because there was no bullshit with him, thats why normal people related to him, he sounded like such an ordinary guy, no airs and graces, fair dues to u2 for pitching in, they always do there bit, never forgot there irishness after all these years.
GOOD BYE GERRY YOU ARE THE BEST MISS YOU ALWAYS LOOKED UP TO YOU THANKS FOR ALL THOSE YEARS . Realy strange i only knew him over the Radio still... as if someone realy important to me has gone How much more awfull for those who knew him as he is in Person ???
deepest sympathy to you all may your sorrow vanish in lovley memory's all my prayer to the Ryan family and friends ....
This is u2 at their best.....people will alway's have a go at bono and the boy's but they will never forget their roots..........no matter how much money they have.......
