    The name I would give the dog is Neart agus Heart. Neart is the Gaeilge for POWER (as in physical force or strength), so Neart agus Heart keeps it Irish and has a subtle ring to it.

    YOU SAYING BOLT (from user Maurice Boland)

    Good man Maurice. You’re in for a night to remember this Saturday. We’ll be in touch.

    Thanks to everyone for taking the time to enter. A very high percentage of the suggestions were absolute rubbish but there were a few surprises like Dee O Gee (Chazza, you dirty dog!)

    Thanks – Ken

    PS – For those interested Trap 1 wins the Derby. Defo

  286. Lee Says:

    Great, steal my Usain Bolt idea and make it a bit worse and bravo, you won! Stewards enquiry surely?

  287. Lee Says:

    I mean, call me a sore loser (which I am!) but my Chew Chain Bolt was at least dog related! What does you saying bolt mean? Fair play Maurice, you won but if I was giving you the prize it would have been for Michael Yelps. More of a doggy theme. Can’t believe you saying bolt posted just after my chew again bolt wins this. STEWARDS ENQUIRY!

  288. wex Says:

    come on lee u had enough goes, all rubbish, fair play maurice!

  289. Lee Says:

    You need a sense of humor transplant. Terrier wogan is gold dust.

  290. Lee Says:

    ……And Maurice had a lot more goes than I did by the way.

  291. wex Says:

    gold dust just like ur good ideas! Terrier Wogan was prob ur best effort though.

  292. Spud Says:

    Lee are you old enough to bet? Your sour grapes and latest comment would suggest not!

  293. Lee Says:

    Sour grapes as mine was funnier ‘Spud’

  294. Lee Says:

    My gripe was that I came up with a topical dog related fast person name, then ten mins later someone copies the person but turns it into a non dog related name and they win. This must be how lewis hamilton felt at the weekend!

  295. Spud Says:

    What’s that Lee a loser??? Take your oil man you lost to the better entry.

  296. tonton zola mokouko Says:

    lee - take a deep breath and go and find something better to do with your life. calm down angry man!

  297. Wex Says:

    don’t think urs was funnier lee sorry, you saying bolt much better play on words, chew chain bolt is not remotely funny! U can name ur pet dog that and whinge about how u were robbed to him, he myt listen or care!

    Birds of a feather Lee and idiot boy, wonder why that would be??!?!

    I’ll be there tonton losing all the dough that i’ll pick up on Liverpool beating the Mancs, I might vene dip into the funds from Tyrone stuffing the Dubs if things aren’t going too well.

    What are you going to do with your Tyrone money idiot boy? Oh aye thats right you bought into all the usual Dub hype, ah well once a loser always a loser!

  301. Lee Says:

    I wish I knew what tyrone and dubs meant. If you mean the fat lad off corrie then i’ll back the other one. I’m baffled. I only came here to try to win a trip to dublin. I also suspect you think I and the user idiot boy are the same person because he half agreed with me. Well i’m afraid not. And as for the other bloke feeling big in the shower, I can confirm I have never showered with him so thats false as well. As I have not won I shall not return, so your ‘hilarious’ posts shall pass my eyes no more. Good luck with the coronation street bet though.

    Those bits were not addressed to you Lee and i know you are not idiot boy as you are able to string a sentence together without resorting to childish insults of other people.

    I just checked this again for nostalgia, i’m the Lee who should have won this competition! But i’d like to point out the post directly above this that’s posted by Lee is not me! Why would someone want to drag me down by copying my name? I’m sick of people copying me! I bet the rude Lee above wins a prize just to rub my nose in it!
