Mucho superfluous hysterics and harrumping bout this on FB Monday night. Boring.......
Most pertinent commentary IMO was provided by Waterford Whispers News:

Would genuinely be interested in seeing how the schoos handle it
Kielys owners seem really naive by their quotes and not very litigation savvy by their actions

Re: Brawl outside Kiely's
According to the guy who took the footage and put it up on the social media, the Kiely's bouncers handled the situation very well i.e. didn't overreact and were a calming influence.simonokeeffe wrote:Think its in domestic rugby, and the need for class warfareleinster10 wrote:don't know if this is in some other thread but anyone any info on how this all kicked off.

This is part supposition but any of no bouncers/not serving in plastic glasses/letting anyone drink or take drinks outside was asking for trouble. Especially the last one.
Barstaff intervening in a street fight is a potential litigation nightmare too (not saying theyre morally wrong for doing that)

It's feckin 5 o clock on a weekday evening in Donnybrook after a schools cup game. Hardly 'asking for trouble' to do any of that!simonokeeffe wrote:

As for the gobshites that started it, too many Heinos and got too pumped up singing the school songs obviously.

According to the guy who made the vid,they were tanked up on cans not on pints from Kiely's. Too boot he said it was recent past-pupils and not schoolboys doing the macho-man impressions.

Re: Brawl outside Kiely's
As previously, this has very little, if anything, to do with the Schools per se. The usual form is that recent past pupils get liquid lunches and gee each other up with interaction on social media and then head to D'brook. Depending on the result and nature of the contest, the verbals may spill over into the physical.
A few years since the last time, but definitely not unique.

And fancy schools can still turn out plenty of knobs
Letting people especially that age especially lads who have been drinking cans etc half the day mix in with your customers just outside your premises is a really bad idea
Have worked in city centre venues long enough and often enough to have seen that repeatedly eg when Dame Lane was basically one amalgamated beer garden
@RTB how sad do you have to be to get that worked up over something like that? (The past pupils)

Re: Brawl outside Kiely's
I'd say there are only a select few schools that would get that worked up about their schools - and they happen to be fee paying rugby schools.simonokeeffe wrote:Teenagers must be better behaved where youre fromwixfjord wrote:It's feckin 5 o clock on a weekday evening in Donnybrook after a schools cup game.

Re: Brawl outside Kiely's
There was a young man killed as a result of one of these brawls some years back. I can’t figure out why this cr@p still goes on.

Re: Brawl outside Kiely's
I was in Annabels for that. That night was crazed in general, saw one guy throw all the glasses off a table and he only got a warning from security ffs. Going by statements in court they got nowhere near all the assailants eitherdomhnallj wrote:There was a young man killed as a result of one of these brawls some years back.

It is needless stuff.

in bygone times thats all Donnybrook was know for

Re: Brawl outside Kiely's
Donnybrook Fair was a fair that was held in Donnybrook, Dublin, from the 13th century until the 1850s. It has given its name to an Irish jig, an upscale supermarket chain, a broadsheet ballad, and is a slang term for a brawl or riot

Turns out it was a non dub event.
You know I'm going to lose,
And gambling's for fools,
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't want to live FOREVER!
