Mindless drunken vandalism

mickydoomsux

Seriously though, i'm from Kilkenny and i have to say that GAA fans are complete scumbags. They'd nearly spit on you if you said you had no interest in either Bogball or Stickbogball.

The amount of cases of refs and players etc. being assaulted at club games around the country is shameful. Guess that what happens when you get a load of boozed up farmers working themselves into a frenzy over an amatuer game.

I feel bad for the guy that got his car wrecked because i've even seen it down here after big games. They people are the 'alright-bud'-Anto's of the rural areas of Ireland.

So what? They televise the games, don't they? Why should the same small neighbourhood have to put up with this scumbag behaviour for half the year? Let's share the 'love' around.

As others have said, Croke park has been there for a very long time; ye knew what it was like when ye moved in. I do feel sorry for anyone who's property gets vandalised, it's the vast minority of the crowd and it lets us all down.

Odd for Fairview. Would make more sense closer to Ballybough. Plus wrenching a door takes a whack of time.
I'm not quite calling shenanigans on this story, but given the amount of Gardai in the vicinity of Croker DURING games (and their subsequent disappearing act when games are over) I'm perplexed how someone would have had the time to commit that damage in a heavily policed area during daytime.

The cops went down the road when they were parking, so they thought it'd be grand, but I don't know what their presence in the area was like during the match.

And it's the vast minority of scumbags who give everyone a bad name on that front too.

I don't think the students ever leave, tbh. Plenty of them in there many's a weekday evening. The same noise levels as the GAA-heads, but less p!ssing in gardens or random acts of vandalism, however.
I'm not in the vicinity of that boozer so I don't get to suffer like those in its immediate hinterland do. If I was, I'd probably consider investing in a sniper turret!

The topic is clear and straightforward. Please try to stick to it. If other topics are of interest, you can open your own thread on them.

Your thread derailed from the topic at hand a long time ago.

Confused.
Croke Park existed for a hundred years, therefore residents should just stfu and put up with their property being destroyed, shouting till all hours outside their doors and cleaning up the p!ss, sh!te, rubbish and vomit out of their gardens, doorways and paths?
Are you suggesting that GAA games at Croker have ALWAYS led to such behaviour? Because that would suggest a ban on the association was in order.
If not, I fail to see how you can berate residents who want to live in their community, near where their kids go to school, their workplaces and the city centre.

The Garda presence from an hour before games until the traffic clears afterwards is enormous. Then they vanish. Then the culchies get drunk and the 'fun' begins.

Yup. And they go home after games and do their boozing in their own areas. As, in fairness, do a lot of the Northerners, and those from the likes of Kerry or Donegal (long drive home, presumably.)

This wouldnt have to do with the large amount of people from dublin moving to the country would it. It might, and it mightnt. My ignorant stereotype was meant to be exactly that, ignorant, as is yours about "culchies".

Did he actually see it happening? When you get 60,000+ people together of course some of them will be scumbags. However any around at 3a.m. plus on a Sunday night would more likely be "culchies" already living in Dublin I reckon.

It's simply fact. I'm happy to call them rural residents of Ireland if you prefer, but that's simply more wordy and they don't deserve to be aggrandised in that fashion, as that tars all rural residents with the same brush.
These people come up to Dublin for de match, ayte de sangwiches, cheer on de lads, skull de pints and then trash de area. They're culchies at their worst.

I could take a poll of the area if you like. But in my anecdotal experience (being further away from the heart of darkness), there is less hassle from the likes of Cork, Kerry, Donegal and the North, yes.

I've seen horrors... horrors that you've seen.
But you have no right to call me a culchie.
You have a right to kill me.
You have a right to do that... but you have no right to judge me.
It's impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means.
Horror... Horror has a face... and you must make a friend of horror.
Horror and moral terror are your friends.
If they are not, then they are enemies to be feared...... They are truly enemies!

The problem is not Croke Park, the problem is a sizeable minority of GAA fans.
Other sports and events do not bring the same problems.

Large Stadia should only be allow to be built in large open areas away from the city centre (eg Berlins Olympicstadion). The redevelopment of Croker and Lansdowne should never have been allowed in situ. Both organisations should have been told to sell-up and move out to the M50 where they could build suitable proper stadia without having to waste so much of taxpayers money.

However, sports "fans" in this country complain about inconvenient ideas like that. But that's only because deep down they're more interested in the occasion & in getting to the pub than the sporting event itself.

This is the universal experience of the residents in the area, my own included. The soccer fans hung around a bit, few pints, off home. The rugby fans were gone within an hour. Concert goers, a few will hang about but most head into the city centre.
Only a minority of GAA supporters feel the irrepressible need to get hammered and destroy the area for hours on end.

I've repeatedly stated that every time there is a big GAA game, usually but not exclusively involving two teams from down the country (though not usually from the island's extremities), it ends up with the neighbourhood being trashed by drunken GAA supporting scumbags.
That's a pretty well-defined cohort of people, and hardly tarring the entirety of rural dwellers with the same brush.

BS from start to finish.
This thread is about objecting to the trashing of Drumcondra EVERY SINGLE TIME there is a big GAA match on at Croker, due to the scumbag drunken behaviour of idiots up in the city for the day who drink themselves out of their minds and treat the place as a toilet, trash bin and playground to destroy.
I'm not interested in anyone's stereotypes, as I've repeatedly said. I'm interested in GAA fans either fecking off home after games, or else behaving like civilised human beings in other peoples' place of residence.

From which county were these GAA bog supporters from? The ones that were seen destroying Drumcondra last night.

If he'd seen them doing it, they'd be in the Mater hospital on life support right now.
I was down the road around 1am last night, and the only people out were either foreigners heading home (from work, presumably) or else drunk mongs in GAA shirts.
Oddly enough, of the four times he's had his car trashed in the past year, every single time occurred on the Sunday night after a GAA match, never during the winter, never on a Saturday night when the area's packed with students.
The odds are heavily stacked in favour of it being drunken GAA supporters.
Speaking personally, the last time Kilkenny were up in Croker, I decided to leg it to the shops at half-time to be confronted by some pr!ck in the gold and black shirt taking his lad out for a slash in my front garden. I grabbed some scissors from the bookshelf and that seemed to discourage him.
I never have to spend an hour clearing burgers, cans and sh!te (I mean that literally) from my garden after soccer games, rugby games or concerts. It's only ever after big GAA matches.

BS yeah? fairly pointed statement...maybe you could - in your infinite wisdom - explain which part i bull-s'hitted you about?

it's an 80,000 capacity stadium in the middle of the city of Dublin with pubs nearby (which are the areas i'm assuming you're refering to). as far as i'm concerned enough said. you cant paint a feckin zebra and call it a horse. you're gonna have an element in every crowd of 80k that's not so nice - but every crowd of that size will cause some element of trouble.

start a campaign to get the pubs closed and for the gaurds to make it policy to move people from the area - no use just using it as a reason to tar the millions of people from outside Dublin with the one brush ffs.

Like they do anything. Like they're even there after matches!
Last time I was coming home from work late, and a GAA match had been on, I witnessed one lad coldcock another in the middle of Drumcondra Road. He knocked the lad completely out. Cue plenty of squealing from girls in GAA tops. I sat in the car and called the plod. They took 15 minutes to arrive, I gave a statement, told them which way the culprit had ran in. They didn't even bother going to check. Instead, they just radioed the ambulance and fecked off again.
The Gardai are only in the area for a few hours from before the game to when the traffic departs.

toiletduck

Right, so you don't actually know who did it. Good.

I'm not defending what happened. Whomever did it was a scumbag. Turning it into a "culchie" bashing thread is ridiculous though.

Funnily enough I have witnessed people from Dublin doing unsavoury things too. Does this mean that everyone from Dublin is an absolute scrote? Of course not. Cop on to yourself.
