pete 2,499 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 I just watched the documentary "You've been Trumped" The bullying tactics he has used to get his way are totally disgraceful. Thank god he never bought our club like he said he looked at doing. His money would have been good but he is a Persona non grata for me. The SNP and the Police also play a dodgy role in the whole affair. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,499 Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 is he even all that rich. They say he is a billionaire but as we saw with Murray most of that wealth may be his companies which can go sour very quickly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,114 Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 is he even all that rich. Only one billionaire on that programme and that was Sir Ian Wood. "You've been Trumped" was nothing other than a hatchet job, the overwhelming majority of the local population wholeheartedly welcome Trump's development with open arms. Two major projects up here Trump's Links and the Aberdeen western periphipal by-pass were both unduly delayed by two "white settlers" protesting, surprise,surprise both of the "white settlers" f*&ked off back south. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose there are 2 sides to every story but some of the hard handed stuff like cutting off the guy's water and building mounds in front of their land seems a bit like bullying to me. Maybe he would have done that to Parkhead right enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he would have done that to Parkhead right enough. It works both ways, the programme didn't show the machinery that had been trashed, the hydraulic oil pipes cut, the greens dug up etc,etc. Though I do think the whole process could have been handled better, Trump didn't understand the clash of cultures and certainly some of the criticism heaped on him was merited. The use of Local Hero was clever in parts. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted October 22, 2012 Author Share Posted October 22, 2012 Is the course now complete? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,114 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Is the course now complete? Yes the course is but there's just a temporary clubhouse, no hotel, timeshares or housed built yet. Everyone who I've talked to who has played there say the course is hard to play but stunning. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
