The Cops have a tough job here because if they did wade in (which they should have done) there would be a load of people on complaining about police brutality etc.
Symptomatic of the way society is going nowadays, younger people have less and less respect for authority.  We need to see real action from Queens & UU this time though, suspensions or warnings will not cut it, if a few got chucked out it might send a warning to them.

Absoultely mental !!

[nifan]

wonder will any of them be waking up shortly and thinking what did I do yesterday, and having flashbacks, or will them not give a f**k and look at it as normal behaviour?

Just through it again there at lunchtime.
Them boys are waking up and are on the booze again by the looks of it.The sun seems to be giving them a second wind already.

I saw a few of them public order wardens dandering around - dont fancy their chances.

The unis will expel no-one. They are running scared of legal challenges to the expulsions. They pay lip service to disciplinary action. Load of auld bollox and we'll be having the same conversation next year.

saw a bit of it on TV yesterday - disgusting behaviour.
The Irish soccer jerseys, the Irish rugby jjerseys, the GAA county tops/tracksuits, the Irish flag - all defiled by a bunch of idiot drunken kids who need strict  lesson in discipline.

That said, the whole St Patricks day drink thing is beyond a joke and has been for a long time now - north and south of the border.
Dublin is horrendous. Cop friends of mine are telling me the stories of the past couple of nights work they have had to go through with.
While not as high profile as the holylands, its the same craic on lesser scale all around dublin.
Disgusting.

FFS lads, its Paddy's Day
Cut them a bit of slack..................

The video (as we don;t know what happened the car) shows them doing nothing wrong. The crowds gather every st patrick's day, but they don;t seem to be doing anything. Very heavy police prescence in the area on Monday night.

But it is when we hear Charlie's story that we understand what tools they are. Forget expelling them, the majority are only up for the day.

Ahhhh.......those were the days.....getting up and having nothing to do but crack open another beer...

Why dont the few residents left in the holylands just move out on 16th and back in in the 18th?  Leave the brothers and sisters to enjoy the day without annoying anyone!

Good solution for the lower Ormeau area generally on other days too?
