Sad day that fellow irish people would attack them because they were Cork Sopportes. I hope it is comdemmed by all and that this type of stuff will not crept into our game

Thats disgraceful....but please note they were Dublin "so called" supporters! I doubt they know anything about GAA if this is how they behave themselves.....

its no surprise to anyone who has had the misfortune of attending dublin games what some of their support are capable of.

Disgraceful, but I doubt to be fair that they were actually GAA Dublin fans.

The report doesn't say they were 'Dublin fans' but dubliners.. This is not really GAA related, just louts drunk abroad picking on someone is a Cork shirt who was in the wrong place at wrong time. A disgrace all the same

Dublin G.A.A. supporters do not behave in this way. No way were they associated with the G.A.A. I have never seen true G.A.A. people behave like this and the Dubs are among the best supporters of our national games !!

I see Hoganstand have published a story about it. Must be some way related to GAA eh Meath Bhoy?

I would doubt if they were GAA fans. Probably a crowd of drunken scum who were looking for any excuse whatsoever to start a row

Think of the good press Ireland will be getting over that eh? Talk about letting your country if not your county down! What satisfaction do these people get?

Dont forget there is always two sides to every story....drunk people are the same no matter what county they are from.

I dont think that just because they werent fans makes it any Better. They were Irish people in a different country who recognised that the other people were Cork GAA supporters and were beat in the All Ireland final. Who are we to know they werent Dublin GAA fans.

Its GAA related cos the person attacked was wearing a GAA Cork jersey-personally I have always found the real Dublin GAA supporters to be brilliant
