Is that a recent thing? Did a 12 pubs station there myself not too mighty long ago.
Great pub by the way, the trad session nights are the finest.
Weâre splitting hairs over the term working class,
That map doesnât represent my view of Douglas, for example Douglas Comm wouldnât be on it, or Trabeg or anything city side of the village, while Rochestown as far as Passage is, I know Nemo are dry own in Trabeg now but they hardly redrew the map to facilitate a GAA club.
20k new houses sounds like an awful lot @Thomas_Brady, that would represent a very large percentage of the entire housing stock of Cork City
A lot of the areas that you describe as working class I would categorize as deprived, Ballyphehane is no worse than Grange these days
@thelimericks
I donât think there were any real Cork people challenging what was a fairly innocent statementâŚbut I suppose the sombreros etc were circling
Fellas be telling you Passage is middle class next
Lads, who gives a shite.

A campaign to relegate the Little All Ireland down the news cycle
Thereâs probably 1000 houses built alone in the last 2 years where Maryborough and Moneygourney meet. Loads of houses around Maryborough and up behind the garda station. Youâve a good clatter leading from moneygourney down to Douglas hall / Garryduff also. Mountoval yes is RoCo but itâs all Douglas these days.
is that Douglas GAAâs catchment? More or less?
there is something genuinely disturbing about Passage and itâs inhabitants⌠itâs the closest thing to hicksville/deliverance country youâll get in Ireland

Youâve Limerick lads born and bred in Limerick City schooling Cork City lads on the geography and demographics of Cork City and WINNING HANDS DOWN
Jesus this superiority over our Southern brethren is unprecedented, itâs in all aspects of life. Itâs like the end of Game of Thrones when the North rises and the Starks rule everything. Fuckin hell.

Is the gentrification of Cork the reason their hurlers are so soft these days?
Am, thatâs not a recent phenomenon. Cork has always been gentrified
Why are the hurlers so soft so?
Donal OâGrady + Donal Ăg Cusack = A lot of talk about spare arm tackling and refereeing the game correctly = Cork Hurling Culture promoting the skillful side of the game more than all other aspects + Referees policing the game accordingly = Soft Cork Hurlers

I donât think so, maybe more or less if weâre gonna be pedantic, but it stops at the start of the Grange road and stretches pretty much from Passage to Ballygarvan, and it doesnât include anything from the village towards the city including Douglas Comm etc, those people live in real Douglas, it also includes a large chunk of water,
Iâm surprised that all of Rochestown is in Douglas, I was sure Rochestown was a parish in its own right

No more about it.
RoCo is a townland in Douglas. Ive been trying to tell you this, Douglas is now the centre of a huge suburban area.
You have my attention, what does that actually mean in practical terms? Is it part of the address âRochestown, Douglas, Cork. Are the churches/ parishes unified,
Rochestown church is part of the Douglas parish. They are joined im almost certain.
