None

We'll agree to disagree so.

And I think I know why none were thrown out on Sunday!

Melion · 23-02-2010 12:49PM

Do tell

Keano · 23-02-2010 12:55PM

For some strange reason Sunday drinkers seem to be a lot calmer. You'll get the odd few but Sunday is the best day to go out.

Melion · 23-02-2010 12:57PM

You're right to a certain extent but when the students from the Hotel Management college are out and the Senans rugby team are out after a match it can be a nightmare.

Aye the HTM crowd have way too much money. Didn't think the Senan's lads would be that much hassle considering a few work there as well.

Melion · 23-02-2010 01:21PM

The Senans lads arent hassle, just messy drunks

.

Jesus, we've gone well OT

OT- but has any of the Senan's lads ever got kicked out?

The next time I'm in the club I know who I'll be abusing :P

The Bridge may have its bad few but it don't need anymore!

Clareman · 23-02-2010 02:12PM

First time I was yellow carded was against Senan's, rightly too I have to admit, but still turned into 1 of those messey drunks after the game, had a great session afterwards, 1 of the lads even contacted me afterwards asking if I wanted to transfer to a Clare team (I was playing in Limerick at the time).

Clareman · 23-02-2010 02:18PM

Back on topic a bit.

Whatever about people being classified by where they're from, I personally think it's wrong for people to be given free houses if they are known criminals, I know that they will need help, but if you're a convicted criminal then you have a debt to pay to society, society should not be paying for you. Assuming that the people being relocated have never been caught up in any crimes, then why not relocate them? Do they not need to have the same support as others?

My biggest problem is that Clare are taking Limerick's problems, whatever the politicans want to say about Limerick city and county being different, the fact of the matter is they are both Limerick, Limerick should look after their own first and once all their resources are used then look to other areas for help

I paid that place a vist for the first time in about 9 months 2 weekends ago before that I had not been there in 2 years. I prefer a quiet pint

pappyodaniel · 23-02-2010 04:55PM

I think it best not to spread these people into areas where the Gardai would DEFinately not have anything like the resources available to them like in the city.

Sure, there are people in the Bridge who you might consider to be far from angelic, but they are Vauxhall Conference to Limerick's Champions League.

Last I heard there was a meeting yesterday between concerned residents and local councillors. I don't think it will happen.

I know this is anecdotal but I remember about 15 years ago when a traveller family decided to park their mobile home in the middle of the village, next to the river. In about 15 mins after their arrival, a crowd of locals confronted the family and told them to move on. The head of the traveller family wouldn't budge and refused their demands. At this, their caravan was pushed into the river and the family moved away from the bridge and never came back. Around the same time in Shannon a few traveller families set up camp on a road under construction leading from the town centre. Their was no confrontation, the numbers swelled, work on the road was halted for years and then we built them a halting site.

That is the difference between 'real' communities and Shannon. They look after their own and they will defend what they have and that's why I fear for what might happen if this family are rehoused in the village.

Do you seriously believe Sixmilebridge is a 'real community' and Shannon is not? Shannon is a lovely town. It's the real capital of Clare.:P

Your so-called community spirit has done a complete 360 turn in 15 years.
As I understand, not so long ago an unflavoursome family from Limerick was moved to Sixmilebridge as part of the regeneration scheme.
Did the community of Sixmilebridge gather in the community hall with torches and pickforks? Oh No! Instead a member of that so-called community welcomed them with open arms, so much so he had his wicked way with one of the wives in a local Sixmilebridge pub toilet, only for the wife to run back to the husband shouting rape and then the Sixmilebridge welcome committee was brought to South Hill in Limerick and shot.

It's not the family I fear for if such a family is rehoused in the bridge. They are only laughing going on previous events. It's the idiots who befriend these people thinking they can get along. These people should be left alone. The regeneration of these people will not be stopped unfortunately, and no amount of community fighting talk or putting down neighbouring towns will solve the problem. I understand you feel very passionat about this issue and you have every right to be, but the only people who can stop this are the councillors and to be honest I really don't think they care.

From what ive heard from a lot of people from the bridge, he is bang on the money(barring the shooting part)

Amazotheamazing · 24-02-2010 02:24PM

Heard a rumour that the family in question are just a mother and son who share the same name as one of the gangs but are absolutely no relation. Would love to see if all this anger and fear was to help kick out a single mother trying to do the best by her young child and get him away from a rough estate in Limerick before he's old enough to be involved in gangs. Disgusting that people still want to kick out single mothers in this day and age.

who was shot?

Her story is close to the truth but factually way off. A Limerick man was shot by another Limerick man in Limerick. The deceased was involved in an altercation in SMB a week prior to his murder.

The man I referred to didn't die and the man who shot him is still walking about.

Pappy, who is the deceased you are referring to? Sure we are talking about the sam incident? Goodness, that Sixmilebridge is a rough place.:D

Do you really expect me to name names? And yes we are talking about the same incident.

We all know this,of course it's going to be a melting pot but why move them like cattle to graze in neighbouring counties. It's a Limerick City problem, so keep the undesirables in the city. It's only passing the buck.

Oh so you mean move them from weston to moyross or from southhill to garryowen is it?

The murder carried out on the ennis road limerick this morning should go
to remind us what kind of scum we are dealing with here.
Unfortunately shootings have lost their shock value in certain areas of limerick, lets not have it happen here.
No amount of money invested into rehabilitation of these scum will change their lifestyle.It is bred into them.Sorry, but they are a lost generation,victims of their own enviroment.All resources should go to convicting these scum on a continous basis, If they cross against a red light,Lock em up,litter,Lock em up.Continual harrasement by law enforcement officers is what is needed.When they are imprisoned ,keep em in solidtary confindment so they cannot order any more hits from jail.The minute they are released ,keep em under surveilence and the minute they put one foot outta line , bring them back in again.
Now some may argue about their civil rights, I normally would ,but these guys have lost the way of life and dont deserve to benefit from our civil laws as they dont care about yours or mine.
Zero tollerence is the only tool we have to use against them.

I really dont want to be digging up this post in five years time saying
"I told ye so" as another victim is buried in Clare. Unless action is taken it is inevitable.

Sorry i forgot nobody was ever murdered in clare by a clareman.. So do we put every gangmember on 24/7 surveillance in the country? And whos gonna pay for that? Clare is a huge market for Limerick drug dealers.. So in fact in an indirect way clare druggies are fueling the problem too.. So maybe when you guys have your own act cleaned up then worry about the people next door..

Also clare has its fair share of ruff familes too.. i know a few well dodgy people from clare living here in Limerick you dont see us whinging.. Every weekend there is a massive influx of clare people into limerick.. Use us for all your needs (Shopping, Socialising, Schools) and then turn your back when we need something? This is a typical irish attitude and untill we all tackle things as a whole we are all just going to blame the next guy for everything like you are.

We just don't have the resources to cope with an influx of troublesome families i.e Gardai, community centres etc.

I know it sounds like a cop out but it's not in my interest to reside in areas where serious antisocial problems may arise.

Shapey Fiend · 25-02-2010 04:54PM

They're letting all sorts of scum in. Look at who they left into Shannon:

Would like to point out I have lived in Shannon for almost 30 years and in all that time only one murder has ever occurred...A Shannon woman shot by a Limerick man. It wasn't related to any feud or gang/criminal activity, just relationship problems.

My intention of this thread is not Limerick bashing. I love Limerick.

My point is the gangs are fuelled as much by consumers from Clare as from anywhere else. It's not Limerick's problem (or Dublin's or Clare's), it's Ireland's. Unless you think no one in Clare uses drugs? (probably imported via Kilrush by a Clareman btw)

That doesn't mean we should have criminals from Limerick City thrown into our villages and towns. Yes they effect Clare too, but that doesn't mean they should be moved there. Just like crime gangs all over the country, they are an Irish problem not a Limerick/Dublin/Cork one.. but that doesn't mean villages and towns in Clare, Galway, Cork and County Limerick should suffer.

Clareman · 25-02-2010 11:17PM

I always find it quite amusing when people are being relocated from 1 place to another and then it turns into a slagging match between the 2 locations. If people were being moved from Ennis to Doolin cause Ennis didn't have space for them, Doolin would be complaining that they can't cope, the new people were going to bring a crime wave, that the place would be rife with drugs, crime and prostitution, Ennis people would be saying that if it wasn't for people coming in looking for drugs, stolen goods and sex that they wouldn't have a problem and other places should help out cause it's their fault anyway.

The sad fact of the matter is that large urban areas will always have a higher numbers of undesirable activity/people, some local, some imported and rural areas won't have these problems because they just don't. The fact of the matter is that rural areas will have their own problems, in fact they may have a higher ratio of the same.

Limerick has it's problems, Clare has it's problems, whether Clare should help Limerick is what is open to debate. Ireland is a very small place, the mid-west region is a smaller part of that, a lot of Limerick people work in Clare, a lot of Clare people work in Limerick, but most Clare people would prefer to work in Clare and Limerick people in Limerick (closer to home, less of a commute), personally I think that Limerick should look after their own people first, there are as many small communities in Limerick (like Sixmilebridge) that can cope with the "overflow" as there is in Clare.

Settle !
I dont care what county they come from.
To answer your question ..YES.
Put all gangbangers under surveilence 24/7.
It will cost a small fortune ,but it will be money well spent.
An ounce of prevention is worth more than a pound of cure.

Shapey Fiend · 26-02-2010 03:23AM

Well if they're moving people from Limerick they need to move them to Ennis not Sixmilebridge (and I'm from Ennis), because we have a proper police presence. Places like Kilrush already have serious social problems and the government is shutting down the garda station. Rural areas certainly don't have the resources to deal with any kind of anti social elements.
