GLUEY

Sure what do you expect from the little knackers. Giving the rest of us youths a bad name. :P

blackbetty69

They do but they would need 6-8 working in security to prevent fights on this scale. And that just wouldn't be economically viable.

Oh ,It was that big....

For those of us who don't know Thurles very well, can you describe in some detail what goes on in Supermacs? Where do these guys come from, how many of them are there, what do they do there all the time?

tuxy

Was anyone there last night. Loads more fights and then they had to close because the water from the upstairs toilets was leaking through the ceiling onto people getting served.

Furet, it's just random people from the town and surrounding villages that can't handle their drink. Just it's a good bit worse than other places I have lived.

Seems to be the same with this particuar fast food outlet in other towns too. Mainly due to over indulgence in alcohol and the fact that they stay open late especially on weekend nights and its usually the only place left open to get food and everyone congregates in it and this is what causes the trouble. It only takes one muppet to start.

amazing where they get the money to get slaughtered drunk every other night! eh?
a well known TD here has stated before:
All state welfare payments being claimed by people involved in violent crime should be just cut off. These type of people can afford to lie in bed all day and are out terrorising communities all night.
I agree with him.

I'm from Kilcommon and its this kind of carry on that has stopped me going out in Thurles. Too many hicks and inbreds coming into town and looking at you funny cos you dont chase people round a field with a stick. Know well the villages ye are on about and the carry on. No matter how drunk I have ever got in Thurles on the occasions I have been out, I would never dream of behaving in the same way as my sad to say fellow county men. The abuse they give to the lads working in Supermacs is vile. Knew a few of the workers there and I dont know how they do it. They are the ones that sould nearly be running the country with the abity they show to put up with the stuff they go through in there. The moment you stick up for any of the staff or tell them to cop on, you're told to shut up or treated like some type of blow in (more than likely because they resent the fact that you dont live there anymore and have discovered a world beyond theirs, where their only experience of a freign culture is atrip across the border to a neighb ouring county to watch a GAA match). Its great that someone has put this up here to show what has to be endured. They should be ashamed of themselves. Booze Britain has nothing on us at this stage

tippspur

The UN needs to be called in to police that place;)

GirlatdRockShow

yep,it's quite the battlefiled!

Is a night out in Thurles really scummy these days?

tommytoofar

thats being polite bout it....

tuxy

My plan of action on a Saturday night is
Milleas - HQ - avoid supermacs and just head home with a few friends and cook food.
Yes the streets are full of scum but I don't let it affect my night

Not a fan of Noel Ryans myself. Milleas is where the castle tavern used to be only upstairs, the old pub is now an off licence. Generally a mature crowd with a good mix of ages. I'v never seen any trouble there and would be really surprised if there was. All the staff are sound too. There is a juke box and most people play rock music on it. It's normally turned down fairly low so it's a good place to go for a chat. Only bad thing is I did get a bad pint of Carlsberg there last Saturday but hopefully that will be sorted again by next weekend.

Yup it's a very different crowd in there. Check it out any Friday or Saturday night I think there's a good chance you will like the place.

Indeed.
The only problem is...what is that these people can do with their money that sensible people can't?
Govt. is secretly dependant on these people.

Why doesn't Superkaks invest in some plexiglass to start with and close up earlier..nah that'd make too much sense.

digzy

tbf to thurles this crap goes on all over the country every weekend.
maybe because supermacs tend to be fairly big with the resulting crowds things are more likely to kick off.
drunk scumbags will behave as such. perhaps the bosses and cops should get fast food outlets to shut earlier and it'd prevent this war zone stuff.with booze on board a usually sensible fella can become unruly and it only takes 2 to start something.
if people had no place to go when clubs/pubs shut they'd fcuk off home and not be hangin about kickin off wing mirrors, shop windows, pissing everywhere..........etc
