    2 pitches used by Cabinteely FC, Seapoint RFC and some 60 odd teams across the grades in Kilbogget Park have been destroyed by a stolen car, later burnt out on the spot. If anyone knows anything about these scum, call the cops. This is your taxes, your kids facilities, your park, your community. Hope they die roarin'.

    Amazing that nobody saw and reported this.

    That's a right mess. Only solution will be to plough it up?

    We'll have to agree to disagree. I didn't even mean it in jest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,247 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    Its cos the kids these days have nothing to do. Not like back in our day when there was a theme park on every corner that stopped us being degenerate scumbags.

    The council should spend money on the future and build sports pitches for them...................

    No consequences

    Revolving door justice system
    Ineffective gardai


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,644 ✭✭✭✭punisher5112


    Very surprised nobody seen it or heard anything. Gardai could have caught them and surprise surprise nothing would be done as the judicial system is a joke as with the legal profession.....

    Not far but to be fair usually the joy riding and burning out stunts are done by regular everyday knackers :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,312 ✭✭✭patrickbrophy18


    The people (:rolleyes:) who did this are vermin with no clear purpose in life and are taking it out on society by desecrating a much valued amenity. To add insult to injury, they torched a car which burnt the soil around it and probably sent all kinds of pollutants into the air.

    So, I don't blame anyone for wishing the worst karma on them. Or, should that be car-ma ;) ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,254 ✭✭✭Esse85


    The scum that did this if caught and found guilty should be tied to the goal posts and whipped to within an inch of their life.

    This would send out a message that this carry on won't be tolerated.

    So easy to be a scumbag in today's Irish society, zero consequences or repercussions.

    There is a little scrote that regularily rides a motorbike around those pitches. I go jogging through the park every other day and often see him.
    He comes accross the Wyattville Road road from the Ballybrack area into the park, wouldnt be surprised at all if he wasnt part of this or knows who was. Totally disgusted by it.
    I'm surprised they were able to get a car onto the pitches at all, I wonder was it though the new entrance being built off the N11?, I noticed that the path through there was wide and open yesterday and thought that odd at the time.

    Have a weather station?, why not join the Ireland Weather Network - http://irelandweather.eu/

    Thats the little fecker alright. Sometimes he brings along a few mates and they all have a go. Honestly makes my blood boil. I've often wondered what kind of parent allows their child to behave like this, boggles my mind.

    Killinarden Park in Tallaght wrecked as well today.

    Apparently the 40th burnt out car on it since January 2018.

    In fairness, I'd say loads of people saw it, but nobody bothered reporting it because 'why bother'.

    People are fed up with a non-existing police service and a judicial system that has become a parody of itself. Whether the people involved were caught or not would make no difference whatsoever. Slap on the wrist, if even that.


    You have to be absolute dirt to do that to a playing pitch. It's just like owning a scrambler bike, graffiti, or joyriding in general. It's an act of contempt to the area and people living in it. Yet if any of the decent residents does anything, they'll be targeted by the scum, and the Gardai will shrug their shoulders.

    I would disagree on both counts people living in the houses backing on to this park are exactly the kind of people who would call the guards and would ensure the guards and judge are very aware of the impact to the locality.

    Possible they were driving without lights on and people just didn't hear it with such good windows these days.

    Looks like 4 wheel drive. Couldn't make out model on phone.

    Of course people knew, pointless ringing the Gardai as we haven't got a functioning justice system in Ireland.

    Parent, are you joking after the vermin has spit out the runt all parental responsibility ends it just gets in season for the next night of wackers or damos passion or a drunk **** in the lane as it is.

    The only hope is a single vehicle accident involving them and a wall.....😉

    That not true. If they were caught they would have got a good talking to and warned that if they were caught again they would get a very good talking to.

    Yeah but that's just the first two times. After that they might get a verbal warning. Which is an even longer talking to. Then they'll be sh'ting themselves!

    I said bad area mentality, its the first step to allowing an area to get bad is to not report things to gardai

    It is (or was) a Honda CR-V, older model. Most of them sold in Ireland would be 2WD only.

    But it's for a reason, in fairness.


    If people called the Gardai, and a couple of minutes later a squad car or two appeared, and they started busting heads, then people would have no issue ringing them in future.


    But when you have repeat, consistent attempts to ring them, and a couple of hours later a single garda car might possibly wander through your area, shrug their shoulders and leave, then you start to think 'what is the point?', and then you stop bothering to call them.

    ...and that happens because, in turn, even if the Gardai turn up mob handed throwing bodies into the back of the paddy wagon, bringing them to the Garda station, doing the paperwork, up in front of the judge etc they’ll just be freed to return home an hour later anyway. So what’s the point?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 664 ✭✭✭starbaby2003


    I’m not sure if posters are familiar with this area. I would doubt very much people wouldn’t call the guards in the anticipation they wouldn’t come. Have a look at Shrewsbury Lawn. This is the estate backing on to the pitches.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,386 ✭✭✭✭rubadub

    I saw at least one guy on twitter say he did report it. Did the gardai or some other source make out like it definitely was not reported or something?

    There is a halting site, but I presume he meant scumbags rather than travellers. I use "knacker" to describe scumbags, as do most people I know.

    I'm not trying to be rude with you or anything, but I'm not sure how to reply to that. It sounds like you're writing it in a sense to challenge my post, but we're actually in agreement from the content of your response?


    The Judicial system doesn't like to punish anyone, so the Gardai couldn't be bothered catching the scum.

    The Gardai couldn't be bothered catching the scum, so Joe Soap isn't interested in ringing the Gardai.

    Joe Soap isn't interested in ringing the Gardai, so the scum do what they want.

    The scum do what they want, because the Judicial system doesn't like to punish anyone.

    (and around in circles we go).

    A park not to far away from this one has had issues with antisocial behaviour over the xmas holidays too! Off Springhill area

    Kids were throwing fireworks at 7pm in the evening! I was out walking the dog and there was a big group of them (none older than about 15) at the entrance to the local park and there was firework wrappers scattered around them, had to walk through them and they were all shouting and roaring at each other (girls and boys) so I took a different route to avoid on the way back - few minutes later they were letting off fireworks and I was worried about all the dogs etc who were out walking so I called Blackrock garda station and they'd already received numerous calls and were on the way.

    When walking dog last night we saw the garda car drive into the park and chase a load of youths as apparently they melted the swing seats in the playground launching fireworks from them..

    Who's supplying kids with fireworks so they can use them without supervision??? I'm not against fireworks but dear god young teenagers would be the last group of people to be allowed use them unsupervised! I just hate when they get set off so early in the evening when cats and dogs etc are out and so easily spooked :(
