I hate to say I told you so but I told you so. The Dealer called it correctly with regards to the elections in Dairygold.

Two weeks ago, The Dealer predicted the outcome of the Dairygold board elections. Board vice chairman Thomas (Tom) Feeney was seeking re-election to the same position and was going uncontested.

There was then a three-way shoot out for one position. John McKeogh was finishing up his term on the board. A dairy and beef farmer from Limerick Ger Dwyer, John Fitzgerald from Mallow and Tim McSweeney from Blarney all wanted on to the board.

I predicted that Dwyer was out in front and, as sure as night follows day, Dwyer has won his seat on the board.

Dwyer has come up through the Limerick regional committee.
