    This whole Northside/Southside comparison is outdated... the entire county of Dublin is now one big melting-pot of scangers and weirdos.
    All that remains are the stereotypes.
    Both sides of the city have areas I wouldn't walk through at night without an M16.

    I'm surprised to see so many Glasnevin folks here... I always wondered about all the pale nerdy looking peeps wandering around here, maybe there's something in the water?

    Correct the PALE is not just Dublin, it goes as far north as Dundalk, south to Arklow and West to Kildare. Spot on, no bother to The_Bullman :)

    Used to live up on the North Soyad in the lovely Corduff estate-the place where a shop,post office or chipper didnt seem to exist for more than 2 weeks before being robbed out of business.NBot to mention Factory John Gilligan was a former resident.Now Im living up in Cavan.
    Anyway Dublin isnt just a North Soyad/South Soyad skangers snobs division like you had 50 years ago.Back then the city didnt extend far out of the inner city.On the south of the Liffey in parts you had mainly good parts bar the area near the liffey,whereas the North was just as bad as it is today.But then half the inner city moved out to Tallaght,Clondalkin and Ballyfermot,whereas places like Castkeknock and Malahoyad were annexed to the Northsoyad.

    I dont like the way this is going, if it continues down this trend of slagging, it will end quite abruptly.

    Im from the Southside...
