This seems like a fringe guy, and the sources may be a little thin for someone so "out there". I notice the article does not give any outside source for whether his predictions actually come true or not, and I suspect there's a good reason why that information is omitted. Self-proclaimed psychics never like to have their predictions followed up on either. --MelanieN (talk) 16:15, 22 December 2009 (UTC)MelanieN[reply]
I agree. I like reading these articles about ordinary people but should a man who predicts "sunny weather for the Irish summer" and snow during the winter really have an article? 86.132.142.166 (talk) 11:51, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I know Michael and last year every prediction from the weather to who would win the English and Scotish football premiership titles as well as what trainer to watch for in last years Grand National came up trumps. He doesn't force his predictions down anybody's throats and is also well known in Donegal for his charity work...Jimmy McC. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.78.7.19 (talk) 21:37, 28 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
