Barriers at Croke Park

Madam, – Joe Nugent raises several points questioning the need for barriers at Croke Park

Madam, – Joe Nugent raises several points questioning the need for barriers at Croke Park. Let me throw another line of thought into the debate.

After-match pitch celebrations are nothing new at the stadium but have only become problematic and over exuberant in recent times. Maybe the numerous bars open within the stadium since rebuild play a major role to this negative behaviour change? One only has to observe the intensity of trading along with some customers demeanour at half-time to question whether these bars are making any positive contribution to the enjoyment of the majority attending. It only takes a few to spoil it for many. – Yours, etc,
