    There used to be a pub round Sth William St called Bartley Dunnes. Some of you may even be old enough to remember it. Not long before it closed, there was a memorable skirmish there, when a biker rode into the pub (sunny day - doors wide open), jumped off his "hog" at the bar and ordered a pint, to general applause from all on the premises. Apart from one dissenting voice who complained loudly about "fecking bikers" or something similar. Cue chairs and tables in a graceful arc through the air and an impromptu ballet of bad ass rucking and blows.

    It really was like something from a movie.

    Much better, towards the end is the funniest part of the video, when the Garda show up. You just couldn't write it.

    Suddenly the Guards arrived with their sirens blareing. The knackers took to their heels at a great rate.....





    Yeah. You could:cool:

    It was clearly a domestic dispute, and domestic disputes always sort themselves out.

    That was a great performance by the lad wearing the greyish jumper. He took at least three full force smacks of the hurley, disarmed your man and then landed a few hooks.

    9/10.

    MOTM.

    Yes including this, and also almost the entire suburban area of Northside Dublin, West dublin and North county Dublin including large parts of Southwest Dublin.

    Unless you are fortunate enough to live in one of Dublins few decent estates then this kind of lawlessness is the norm. Albeit not as extreme as this on a day to day basis, but not far off!

    dont forget large parts of the south central city, south east and to quote you - 'almost the entire suburban area of southside dublin'

    when you list the working class/disadvantaged areas of dublin there are more south of the liffey

    the real upper class area of dublin is the eastside along the dart line, north and south

    The thing with the Northside, is if one part of an area gets branded a ****ehole say Coolock then the whole of Coolock is kip, this is not the case near 90% of Coolock is fine.

    At the end of the day, no matter where ye live there will always be scum.

    like brookfield in blackrock. thats a kip but you never hear of the whole of blackrock being branded a kip. the traveller camp in foxrock is another example. between mount pleaseant square in ranelagh and rathmines is notorious. the list goes on

    Jesus Christ... I really don't see the funny side of this at all. I don't give one damn for those caught up in the fracas but I do care about my city and it makes me sick to think that the rule of law is so routinely dismissed by thugs such as these.

    Again, yet again, the Gardai show their true colours. When are people going to wake up and stop defending these people?

    The Concorde pub in Rathmines in the 80's - "wigs on the green" didn't even begin to cover it.

    remember maddison that was where copan is now? the biggest drug dealer on the southside that lives in a very upmarket area not far from rathmines was involved in that. it was probably the most dangerous pub in the whole of dublin at the time.

    Coolock garda station covers a huge area

    Turn on the news, "man arrested and taken to Coolock Garda Station" and the message goes out it was Coolock

    Could have been a completely different area though

    Midnight mass at christmas - the record was apparently 40 coppers and two vans, few cars, loads of bikes. And there was still trouble.

    the garda will never respond on till the end because its just to much paper work involed.they got the call and they said let it happen and we will arrive when its over, job done. the garda are thinking like the people nowadays , the country is fk'ed and they did'nt cause it so let the bloody politics sort it out. their wages are cut and garda stations are closing and there is no money for policing.

    He took a fair few whacks of the hurl and was not only still standing, but was on the offensive.

    He's like a superknacker.

    How can you expect the Gardai to be everywhere? They need time to respond, this seemed to have kicked off and was over in under a minute.

    As long as they don't harm any civilians and don't damage property then I'd be happy to let these scum knock 50 shades of sh*te outta each other. Why not let them do it in a steel cage and maybe RTE can pick it up.
