    Ahh yeah your well behind its been postponed since wednesday evening

    I was in town on Saturday, thankfully nice and quiet, but did notice a slighter bigger Garda presence than normal?

    but also, on Nassau Street I overheard a tracksuited man on a his phone saying, "was just up at the Dail. No, it was sh1te. There's no-one there, nothings gonna kick-off. I'm going home".

    Not much to go on, but I suspect some people were determined cause trouble. Even if those dastardly Loyalists never showed up!

    Sure everyone knew that a section of the Irish republican movement was going to be there, ready to have a go at our police. He obviously didn't get the memo that the 'counter-protest' was cancelled. It probably ruined his Saturday.
