    A totally isolated incident that unfortunately happens too regularly at weekends across much of Ireland today. It doesn’t detract from probably the greatest night in Limerick’s recent history.

    At least they didn’t bring them to regional in limerick. They might have some chance of surviving by going to Cork.

    Every town has its Muppets,it’s inbred,they don’t know any different.Our problem here is a bit more magnified,a town that time and again gets passed over by successive government’s ‘re investment.And a national broadcaster with considerable bias towards our county.So have your laugh at a few of our dimwitted citizens,we have our “all Ireland…”so F.Off.

    @Dave Walsh: dude ye get more than a fair share of investment. Cork as a County is hitting 500,000 people, and the promised “events centre” still hasn’t amounted to anything!

    @John: no what I’m implying is the under investment in many of our cities has created areas of social degeneration,which in turn leads to this type of behavior…the f off stands…

    I hope all the snarky Dub-bashers from the Crumlin article read this. But seriously though here’s hoping that lad pulls through.

    @I’m not wavy gravy: did you not know at this stage that everyone else is allowed to tear Dublin a new one in every article(even if it’s not about Dublin) but don’t dare say anything about their beloved counties.

    @John: The irony of course being that whether they like it or not Dublin carries this country on its shoulders.
