handled badly by all sides in fairness. The Brooks camp stating it was all 5 or none at all completely underestimated how far Irish people are willing to dig the heels in when they feel they are being bullied.
Im not sure which residents groups wanted the gigs cancelled either. I live a 5 minute walk from croke park and to be fair the disruption caused by a big gig such as the one direction concerts earlier in the year is only marginally more than any semi decent sunday fixture in the hurling or football
prob just a fuck you for the sake of fuck you kinda thing

Wouldn't have a huge lot of sympathy for his case, but he does point out that his family bought when CP was still a 60K dilapidated GAA stadium hosting a dozen or so matches a year all on Sunday afternoons.

There's a lot of history to this situation that a lot of people are ignorant of. This latest episode is not an isolated incident by any stretch.
Firstly, I heard every note of the first Garth Brooks concert in perfect clarity and I lived 3 miles away at the time. I can't imagine how loud it must have been in Drumcondra. Initial complaints from the residents weren't just ignored, they were ridiculed. Despite the complaints the Robbie Williams (I think it was) concert the next year was even louder. After that the first lawsuit was filed.
There's a hugely antagonistic relationship at this point which seems unreasonable if you're looking at it for the first time, but if you know the backstory it's all a rich tapestry. Just a perfect microcosm of Ireland itself, really."I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S. Thompson

Originally posted by Hitchhiker's Guide To... View PostYep, could sadly hear every song of One Direction in Spencer Dock. Must be crazy loud if you actually live there. They need to have a decent concert venue with proper capacity - maybe a new version of o2 but with triple the capacity. Holding concerts in a football stadium seems fairly dumb. Had the misfortune to watch Madonna in the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff and you're really just looking at the TV screens as Madonna herself was nearly invisible from that distance.Profit before people.

Originally posted by Walter Mitty View PostHis life was under threat before the operation and the father made the decision if he lived it would be forgotten about.
Fast forward and be found out from an older brother that the father could have sued.
This is where he is now, he has known for about a month
I suppose the question is ' does he have a case because he didn't find out of his opportunity to claim compensation until a few years too late'Originally posted by Kayroo View PostLike I said, have to chat to a solicitor really. If he never knew then his date of knowledge (important term) is really up for argument. Did the cause of action accrue at 18 or when he found out. In either case 2 years isn't that long in real terms so speak to a solicitor in the immediate future.
Given that there were publicly viewable scars then I would have thought his date of knowledge runs from 18, unless he was at that point in some way mentally incapacitated.
Your friend has two possible actions essentially, one against the Health authorities [where it would look like he is out of time UNLESS he was in some way prevented activating his date of knowledge at 18], or secondly against his parents, as they effectively denied him the opportunity of suing the Health Auth by failing to tell him the truth.
Something similar has arisen in the past, in relation to undervalued settlements in the case of minors and one INsurance company in particular, there was no Court decision in the cases as the Insurance Company paid a 'fu*k off' figure to stop the cases being opened in Court.
In either case, or in any case, you can't take anything on here as legal advice, as you can see even posts from as eminent a personage as Kayroo can miss out on stuff. The best advice ALWAYS is to consult a solicitor. If he gets it wrong there is professional indemnity recource, if someone on here gets it wrong your friend has no recourse at all.

Who was is that said that this Brazil team won't get any credit thats due until the semi final? It was someone here Im sure.This may or may not be an original thought of my own.
All efforts were made to make this thought original but with the abundance of thoughts in the world the originality of this thought cannot be guaranteed.
