    Because the D1/D3 area is know for the refined manner in which it's residents like to converse?

    No sweeping genarlisation - just making the point that claiming vulgar language isn't common around Croke Park is a fairly pathetic argument.

    Having lived and worked in the area for a number of years (until recently), I've not complaints about the area (people swearing or not doesn't bother me in the slightest).

    That said, I used to walk home from North Wall Quay to Alphonsus Ave in the evening and the type of language you'd most commonly hear wouldn't be the exactly "parliamentary."

    Read the full thread. Who's calling people c***t's, who's threatening to urinate on people's property? Who's being aggressive and trolling? The Garth Brooks fans, not the residents.

    Nobody claimed that, your just making stuff up to be honest.

    The poster merely said they wouldn't like that sort of carry on around their home, not that it never happens.

    Also if you've lived in "the area" you'd know that large area's around Croke park are occupied by non-nationals on one side and student/teachers from the schticks on the other.

    "Well, yeah, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man"

    Where did I call other people cúnts? The person who threw a bottle of bleach out a window targeting kids would be a 'scummy cúnt' is what I called it yesterday. No where did I call others cúnts.

    Except for this quote here implying that vulgar language isn't common in the Croke Park area.

    But keep making baseless accusations. Really makes you look like you've plenty of reasoned arguments :pac:

    I never said anything about who lives in the area, merely the type of language that I used to hear on the walk home. There's a mix of various nationalities in the area. You seem to be forgetting the entire population to the East of Croke Park though (Summerhill, Ballybough Rd, Portland St.). That's pretty much full of native Dubs.
    Or do you think that the people hanging around outside the Sunset are not native Dubs.

    I didn't say that anyone was being aggressive or trolling.

    You tried to imply that swearing/vulgar language is not a normal occurrence in the areas around Croke Park - I'm pointing out that such a claim is nonsense - nothing else.

    What a scummy cúnt. What will throwing bleach down into a crowd of concert goers achieve?


    So let's look at this,

    First it was bleach thrown onto ONE young boy but no one else has seen or reported this and no guards were called over it.

    Next it was onto a CROWD of concert goers but again no one saw anything and no guards were called

    She knew which house it was allegedly thrown from and which window but didn't call the guards

    One last thing.....where does it say in the article that the boy was only 7 years old?

    To coin a phrase i once read in an idiotic post
    there's something wrong with you there i think
    :rolleyes:

    Where does it say the child was 7? were you there? If so how come it wasn't reported to the guards?

    sorry but this is a made up story.

    He doesn't care that someone made a completely unsubstantiated claim on Joe Duffy, which they didn't bother reporting to the Gardaí at a time when there was a fairly sizeable Garda presence on the streets, and when there would be thousands of children passing the point of the alleged incident for plenty of time later.

    I think he might have a point.

    The licences haven't been officially granted (which is not rare for events, take EP, Oxegen in the past, big outdoor gigs - all have been granted last minute in the past at times).

    But these concerts are without a doubt going ahead.

    Unless they don't:rolleyes:

    Also, aside from the fact she somehow got seperated from 80,000 other people, she didn't notice till they got back to clondalkin, since when are there no lights at the luas stops/on the luas.

    They probably didn't take much heed of it at the time, from reading the baby, it was only when they got home, they discovered the t-shirt was destroyed.

    I read the article again

    Amazing how it paints Croke park as being great
    his mother Deirdre described how her young son's perfect night turned into a disaster after the concert.
    Everything was great, right down to the security and the gardai.
    “We came out and we were shown what way to go.
    following the directions the gardai gave us.

    AWWWWW HOW CUTESIE WOOTSIE:rolleyes:
    he wanted people to see the One Direction T-Shirt he bought at the concert. It was €25 of his own money and he wanted to spend it to get this shirt.
    “I looked up and I saw one window open with no lights on. It was only when my son said to me ‘Mum, that smells like the swimming pool’ that I thought, Oh my God, they’ve just thrown bleach out the window at us.”
    There was no trouble or drinking going on. These were all kids rushing to get home. They were all tired.”
    “He had such a good night and everything had gone great. He got to see his heroes perform and for this to happen he couldn’t fathom.”

    Paints CP in great light and the locals as bad as possible :rolleyes:

    He wanted people to see his t shirt, even though apparently it was so dark you couldn't see it.

    She said she knew thought it was bleach immediately. But didn't feel the need to tell the gardaí - leaving potentially thousands of other children to have bleach thrown at them?

    It's BS, made-up rabble-rousing - just like everything else on the Joe Duffy show.

    there could be, but really what sort of absolute mental weirdo does it take to do ALL that instead of just going on a short holiday that week, or maybe you know, take a few deep breaths and relax for once in your petty life?

    why bother prolonging your "misery" of the whole thing by extending it to court etc?

    i find it actually genuinely hilarious for all the (only word for it) STUPID people who moved to this area and didnt think there would be events on!

    oh and BTW, i live less than a mile away from croker and i'm all for it. bit of buzz in the area!

    There could be both.

    The concerts will still go ahead though.

    I really do feel sorry for the residents. I go mad the one day the rally passes the house and we're locked in, never mind 5 solid days of disruption. But the Shiite talk and bickering on this thread is getting unreal.
