Annual Eve Of All-Ireland Rally.

On Saturday , September 19 , 2009 , Republicans will hold a Rally in Dublin in support of republican prisoners .
Annual Eve of All-Ireland Rally , Saturday 19 September 2009 , Dublin.
Annual Eve of All-Ireland Rally , Saturday 19 September 2009 , Dublin.

Hi !

" One of the largest public rallies seen in Dublin for years was held by Sinn Féin at the GPO on the eve of the All-Ireland Football Final . Headed by a Colour Party and a pipe band , a parade of more than 2,000 people marched from Parnell Square through the main city thoroughfare as a protest against the continued unjust imprisonment of Irishmen without charge or trial .
Contingents from all over the country took part and many carried banners and placards including groups from England and Scotland . In the Ulster section was a strong representation of the Derry supporters who thronged the capital city for the Final . One placard they carried asked - ' Why are Six-County Nationalists interned in the Curragh?' ....."

(From 'An tÉireannach Aontaithe/The United Irishman newspaper , November 1958)

The Annual Eve Of All-Ireland Rally will be held this year on Saturday 19th September : those attending are asked to assemble at the Garden of Remembrance in Parnell Square at 1.45pm from where the parade will leave for the GPO .

Thanks!

Sharon.

fair play to RSF for this rally. RSF allow us all to remember our history, they are like an historical society in Ireland who always remember that what our people did decades ago must be done today. While 'others' continue to look forwards wrongly, RSF will always look backwards and be guided by those who have left us, our tradition of marching is strong!

Hi Larry !
Thanks for that - I'll see you and the kids on the day!

Hi Looking back !
Not so much "looking back" - although , politically , that in itself is no harm - as recognising that this issue is still a 'live' issue today, unfortunately.
If you "look forward" without realising where you have been , you run the risk of walking in circles.
Beir Bua agus slán go foill anois,
(and thanks again , Larry!)

Unfortunately, this clashes with the Stop The Cuts! No More Bail Outs! Protest! also happening on the same day, Saturday, September 19th, Starting at 1:00 PM at the Garden of Remembrance, Parnell Square! Now I have a very serious dilemma: which March do I go on? I know many others are going to have the same dilemma too. It's probably just unfortunate that the two equally important Events are happening on the same day at almost the same time and I suppose it's a good complaint that you have to choose which Event to attend given that up until recently there was a serious lack of any major Protests happening in Ireland!

Hi Torn Between two Marches!
It was decided today to hold the Eve Rally at 12 Noon on the same day (Saturday 19 September next) , from the Garden of Remembrance , instead of the originally advertised time in my lead post.
Apologises for this change to those who have made their arrangements based on the previously stated time , but it's for the better in the long run , as the RSF members and supporters going to the Rally all voiced concern re wanting to attend the 'Stop The Cuts!' protest as well.
And now we can!
Thanks!
Sharon.

best of luck to all who are going to both of these - good idea for rsf in changing the time , fair play for that
i'll be at the rally with a few mates and then we're gonna take part in the protest
hope they both get the big crowd they deserve

Hi Larry !
Both events do deserve a big turnout and all the RSF supporters and members will be going straight from the Eve Rally to the protest , so we'll probably meet up again at some point on Saturday .
See you then , Larry - thanks!
Sharon.

Sharon

The march went well yesterday. It is a pity both marches clashed on the same day. Good speakers.

Our country sure needs a change of moral conscience.

I met a friend of yours setting up the stage.

Hi Scorpio and Dogged !
It did indeed go well on the day - although the change of time did affect the turnout , I think.
The speakers , Pat and Fergal , are both 'old hands' at delivering speeches and are very confident at doing so at street level (especially as Pat knew they had the match in the bag!) .
And you're right about the poor state of our collective moral conscience - people seem to have just practically given up ?
My friend at the stage area whom you would have been talking to , I think ,would have been either Andy , Paddy or John , as those three were 'seconded' to that particular job - myself and five others were on 'leaflet duties' , and we were very busy at same , which is a good sign.
Thank You for the comment !
Sharon.
