Coke is brilliant, most of you making negative comments about Gerry are just jealous of his life. At least he enjoyed his 53 years, you lot will probably live to 90 but spend the whole time being spiteful and unhappy
It would shock me if most of you people had a nice word to say about anyone. Gerry may have made mistakes, but he was a good person. He wasn't just a voice, he was a father, a son, a brother and a partner. If you lost someone close to you, how would you feel if someone made the any one of the awful comments shown here? I am apalled at the total lack of empathy.
people will always tune in to an arrogant, obnoxious prick, eg. Simon Cowell, or, - ' Gay ' Burn ( homosexual rash ), or even Jay Leno , etc. This explains Gerrys radio & TV. popularity.
Having said that, I missed Gerry very badly last night,
Christ name a more odious so called Irish woman personality than this one. She has to be the most horrendous, unfunny and unlikeable shits Ireland has ever produced. her writing is appalling- full of middle class nostalgia that presumes everyone else had. I loved Gerry but she is just ughhh!!
@esnire Gerry Ryan was an overweight over-rated coke head drug addict asshole who came on the radio giving out about criminals and drug dealers when all along he supported them. He was a two face bastard! It's about time you took your head out of your arse and seen this you gob shit!
@DJEMMEY25 Far from it - he was highly intelligent, very funny and his radio made compulsive listening in the morning especially if he had good guestaa. Some of his shows could be crap but he was one fine broadcaster and I say that as a person who is highly critical and hard to please. Yes he was a hyprocrite and a drug addict...nobody is perfect. It was a sad way to go.
it was a shocking disgrace the very very limited air time that RTE gave the issue of the middle class cocaine epidemic in Ireland. Gerry was the most famous personality to die in Ireland from cocaine-drugs with the exception of Phil lynott. As regards Katie French..She doesn't come any where near Gerry is the celebrity stakes. We are bombarded for weeks about Katie's death yet Gerry got 1-2 day brief commentary. Absolute fucking bullshit by RTE.
fiona looney givin o'callaghan shite 'cos he spoke out about Gerry the Junkie.... sure she was one of his best friends so she obv knew he was a fkin drug addict.... sanctamonius cunt!
@fairhillnorrie - would you ever cop on, dont blame the dealer, If people like Gerry weren't looking for coke there wouldnt be a market. You dont blame bar men or publicans for causing alcoholics. We live in a country famous for drug taking, don't forget Alcohol is a drug. If Gerry was great why didnt he try to help people by being honest about his drug taking instead of being a hypocrite slaging off other drug users and dealers who in the majority are were alot less well off and educated.
How do all you celebrity worshipping IDIOTS feel today?? He died from Cocaine, a drug he publically dismissed and called users and dealers "scumbags" A fat fucking overpaid hypocrite, just like every fucking overpaid asshole in RTE. Boycott that disgraceful propaganda channel. I hope the truth comes out soon about this disgraceful country, plenty more people in the establishment are involved in consumption and sale of narcotics. WAKE UP
@rictvr The morning after that the young apprentice plumber Anthony Cambell was shot in while working in one of Marlo Hylands houses in inner city Dublin, 2006 I think, I clearly remember Ryan on his radio show saing that the "scumbag dealers and users of drugs are to blame" I have no recording of it but I remember it vividly.
Ah it's just one of those comments you make off the cuff as a joke. Sometimes it turns out you were sadly right, but she maybe had some of sixth sense working that day.
"Nurses are skilled and needed, and are always welcomed in Ireland."
Sure. That's why so many screw ups with the HSE, the infected blood scandal and the other scandals one could mention. MRSA due to bad hygiene in hospitals etc.
Meanwhile Irish Nurses are currently having to go to England to look for work. Coz the positions are taken up here with non-EU ppl.
"I think this article is xenophobic and creates hate towards immigrants" - you are entitled to your opinion. I think your opinion is wrong.
What these foreigners did HAPPENED. This is therefore reporting a FACT. A fact that Irish people need to know about. It is therfore not xenophobic, that is an overreactive fear based on irrational thinking. The article is fact therefore nothing to do with xenophobia.
"All nurses under-go health-screening, vetting and checks." Read the article again. The checks were done and found to be FRAUDULANT. That presents a clear risk and high danger of re-infection.
You cannot screen and clear what you do not know is about or who is carrying. You really think we would cope with another outbreak, look how the HSE handles everything, look at the haemophiliac disaster with infected blood. You are living in fantasy-land if you think we would cope.
WARNING IRELAND: FOREIGN NURSES BRINGING IN TB DISEASE
The Irish Medical Journal found that some foreign nurses recruited for Irish hospitals had latent Tuberculosis(TB). A study has found that some X-rays carried out as part of TB screening in their HOME countries were inaccurately reported.
The nurses studied, whose chest X-rays were done abroad were reported as normal, they were later diagnosed with latent TB.
Irish Independent 26/5/10
Ireland fought for decades to get rid of this disease

@cahillgreg Why in gods name are you commenting on this video, this is about Gerry Ryan, a hugely respected Irish Broadcaster, not some English vs Irish video. And by the way if we are Physically insuperior then why have we got our own nation now? who did we as Irish defeat in 1921?? And the gene pool you talk about is not that different between the islands of ireland and Britain, we all come from the Celtic/Norman pot, they are millions in the UK who claim Irish ancestory and likewise here.
He was found only two hours after this. The coroner said he was dead for hours. The chances are that when she said he was dead he probably really was dead.

@TheEntropic1... All the people who die tragically from cancer, diseases, and many other horrific illnesses who decided that a rotten bastard like you deserves to live. Lowest form of scum.
@TheEntropic1 If your not irish then go feck yourself because you wont understand it so why bother giving an opinion on something you don't know anything about?! whats your point like
@TheEntropic1 u filthy talaban ugly black bastard shut ur fuckin pacy mouth....u fuckin black loser.....choclate cunt ya.....ur fuckin dead if i eva find u....heed my words.....
@TheEntropic1 it's not an Irish thing, most Irish people thought he was a fat overpaid prick who had an uneducated opinion on everything. just after he died few a willing to admit that they thought he was a fucking gobshite, i don't know why, maybe the feel he will come back and haunt them and attack them with his gerry powers. he funded criminals and was responsible for the deaths of many people here and in the third world with his scumbag selfish ways.
@RHCPfan458 here, people being shot dead, in the third world people being shot dead - through creating a demand for illegal yet pricey drugs - hope this helps
well said mrgucky Gerry was a true gentleman and a voice for people who needed to be heard. R.I.P. Mr. Ryan you will be missed for a long time to come.
This really shows how close Fiona really was to Gerry. i think it is an amazing example of our untapped 6th sense. Obviously, Fiona is a VERY tuned in woman! I know she must miss him terribly...as we all do!
A similar thing happened to me. I got a call late at night from my sister last week and I said I thought someone had just died as the call was so late. 20 minutes later, I DID get a call saying my aunt had died. We all have psychic abilities that we don't know of, understand or use very often.
How would she feel terrible? She didn't know! It's the kind of thing anyone might say when they get a phone call at an unearthly hour. It's just kinda sad in hindsight.
So so thinking Fiona Looney regrets ever saying that ... but u know Gerry wud have laughed and i think she knows that also ..... tough to have it up here and knowing she was his friend
Typical of Fiona Looney. She is a stupid ***** And she lacking in compassion. She badmouthed the late courageous Jade Goody when the latter had made the decision to live out her last days in the public eye in order to make as much money as possible for her children. :LOONEY (an apt name) had no right to judge. Just look at Midday on TV3 to see her - dreadful woman.,
I Didnt Personally Know The Man But I Know A Woman Who Was Best Friends With His EX Wife. The Man was a beast apperently. He drove his ex to thinking she was mad and cheated on her in many occasions. he even tried to hit on the woman i was talking about! total gobshite!
in all fairness... if and when i get an early morning phone call, i've always presumed there was someone dead or something wrong. she was totally innocent in her comments
I haven't said my thoughts on Gerry Ryan were good bad or indifferent!
I have however asked some of the folk to try and remember that the man has a young family, who in sure are distressed enough at the loss of their daddy without adding insult to injury by slagging him.
I hope your father is alive and well Damien, I also hope if he has/when he does pass away you don't read thoroughly nasty comments about his passing!
Theres a strange but interesting sidestory coming from the Ryan tragedy and thats do RTE really warrant the licence fee anymore.
Gerry was talented but within the whole organisation there is no one with a fraction of his talent, as a viewer we are bombarded with ads. Its in the interest of the government of the day to keep RTE on a leash. as will RTE bite the hand that leads to them being fed ?
Think about it 160 euro a year for RTE, isnt it time this was really questioned.
@John27346 - Your implying that you don't pay the licence fee? Thats grand but you see the the issue will never get resolved, every now and then you have to dive behind the couch, wonder if the knock at the door is an inspector, some pay some dont but i hope in the future if you dont pay you make a noise, put pressure on politicians etc, if two million people say I'm not paying it will soon enough stop, its a joke of a fee and if water charges come in, well hopefully
@fgm01 You know the ADs they have that says "We've heard all the excuses and none of them work"? Well that's not entirely true. I have the ultimate excuse which I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you.
Oh the poor girl. She was a great friend of Gerry's. I believe he had called in sick and she was covering his show. She obviously didn't realise how prophetic her words were. Annoyed with people posting here that she should be riddled with guilt.
Just saw old footage of Gerry Ryan joking about hoping that Gay Byrne would die so that he'd get the good jobs! - Suggests he's probably would have found it funny :D
idwtsasoj It's believed to have been a heart attack but he had been messing around with coke.
As much as I am stunned for his ex wife, partner and kids, he was known as a massive coke head, and heavy drinker and 4 stone overweight. The inquest is going to be interesting to say the least. I encountered him on more than one occasion and found him to be thoroughly nasty.
To all the fuckpots slagging the man, take into account that he has a feckin family left behind lads, who mist probably read these comments, including his five children (the youngest of which is 8years old)
If you have nothing good to say about the man, then keep your stupid arrogant bigoted comments to yourself.
@mrgucky people have a right to say what they want and not everyone thought he was great and they should be allowed express that. censoring criticism of gerry is making a demi-god out of him which he is certainly not...
Are you trying to tell me that Gerry Ryans children will never enter the words "Gerry Ryans death" into google and get directed to this page (just like I did?)
The man might have annoyed some of you, but 300,000 listeners cant ALL be wrong?
A poor little 10 year old girl has lost her father, and to the folk who feel the need to be arrogant and dam right offensive with their comments.......
Think of your father, or your 10 year old daughter/son on Christmas day this year....
@mrgucky Bang On! - Just watched the great Gerry Ryan being interviewed by Ryan Tubridy and he came across even more genuine and likable than on the radio. RIP Gerry.

@TheEntropic1 it's not an Irish thing, most Irish people thought he was a fat overpaid prick who had an uneducated opinion on everything. just after he died few a willing to admit that they thought he was a fucking gobshite, i don't know why, maybe the feel he will come back and haunt them and attack them with his gerry powers. he funded criminals and was responsible for the deaths of many people here and in the third world with his scumbag selfish ways.

A similar thing happened to me. I got a call late at night from my sister last week and I said I thought someone had just died as the call was so late. 20 minutes later, I DID get a call saying my aunt had died. We all have psychic abilities that we don't know of, understand or use very often.

How would she feel terrible? She didn't know! It's the kind of thing anyone might say when they get a phone call at an unearthly hour. It's just kinda sad in hindsight.

Typical of Fiona Looney. She is a stupid ***** And she lacking in compassion. She badmouthed the late courageous Jade Goody when the latter had made the decision to live out her last days in the public eye in order to make as much money as possible for her children. :LOONEY (an apt name) had no right to judge. Just look at Midday on TV3 to see her - dreadful woman.,

I haven't said my thoughts on Gerry Ryan were good bad or indifferent!
I have however asked some of the folk to try and remember that the man has a young family, who in sure are distressed enough at the loss of their daddy without adding insult to injury by slagging him.
I hope your father is alive and well Damien, I also hope if he has/when he does pass away you don't read thoroughly nasty comments about his passing!
That's all I have to say on the matter...

Theres a strange but interesting sidestory coming from the Ryan tragedy and thats do RTE really warrant the licence fee anymore.
Gerry was talented but within the whole organisation there is no one with a fraction of his talent, as a viewer we are bombarded with ads. Its in the interest of the government of the day to keep RTE on a leash. as will RTE bite the hand that leads to them being fed ?
Think about it 160 euro a year for RTE, isnt it time this was really questioned.
RIP Gerry Ryan.

@John27346 - Your implying that you don't pay the licence fee? Thats grand but you see the the issue will never get resolved, every now and then you have to dive behind the couch, wonder if the knock at the door is an inspector, some pay some dont but i hope in the future if you dont pay you make a noise, put pressure on politicians etc, if two million people say I'm not paying it will soon enough stop, its a joke of a fee and if water charges come in, well hopefully

Oh the poor girl. She was a great friend of Gerry's. I believe he had called in sick and she was covering his show. She obviously didn't realise how prophetic her words were. Annoyed with people posting here that she should be riddled with guilt.

idwtsasoj It's believed to have been a heart attack but he had been messing around with coke.
As much as I am stunned for his ex wife, partner and kids, he was known as a massive coke head, and heavy drinker and 4 stone overweight. The inquest is going to be interesting to say the least. I encountered him on more than one occasion and found him to be thoroughly nasty.

To all the fuckpots slagging the man, take into account that he has a feckin family left behind lads, who mist probably read these comments, including his five children (the youngest of which is 8years old)
If you have nothing good to say about the man, then keep your stupid arrogant bigoted comments to yourself.
Rest in peace Gerry.....
