Ahem, I thought we were discussing Diversity Day. This event is an opportunity for EVERYBODY (football fans and others) to balm out in the park listening to choons for a good cause. P.S. Revelation Sound will be there all day long with the bass pumping. C U there! (I'll be the one in the People's Republic of Cork T-shirt)

Jesus'd be turning in his grave if he stayed there!

Some people love the place, some people can't stand the place. I'm sure that goes for most towns and cities. That is pretty much irrelevant to what's going on on Sunday which is a celebration of diversity in many forms.

Bishop Lucey Park as its officially known is also known to the good or otherwise people of Cork as 'De Peace Park'.

I take it you're not coming Pat but thanks for your helpful comment in any case.

its good but ironic to see diversity celebrated in "bishop lucey" park. the park was donated to the city of cork by the church of ireland.

to show their appreciation for this gift the good burghers of cork named the park after a fundamentalist roman catholic bishop: cornelius lucey. (connie lingus as he was fondly known to some)

only in cork could you get such ignorance, spite & petty-mindedness. (well maybe on ravensdale rd, shankill rd, rathcoole, waterside, portadown)

hmmm, how about 101 reasons why i hate cork?

(before any leesiders rush to the defence, let me point out that i spent 18 years in that parochial town)
