That's bad form. Is that the black Merc bus with the Youths crest on it and everything?
know it not Limerick supporters but Limerick need to provide safe parking for buses traveling to their ground be it a team bus or a supporters bus or at least someone to watch the buses as then are easy targets for mindless vandals

yes 1000's euro worth of damage
shocking, the cliches about Limerick just keep coming and coming.

Not many clubs do this you realise and we have accomodated club buses in the ground before (they do have to be there early as they would have to drive in before the first supporters started to arrive). I've travelled to Shels and UCD on the supporters club bus this season and there hasn't been secure parking provided, same when we've travelled to places like Cobh, Galway and Athlone, in fact I'd be surprsied if you could find many clubs from any league you want that allow sc buses to park in the ground.
Bad form from whoever did it but it's the society we live in, not just a Limerick problem too I might add before people like Splurge go off on one and I'll remind all of you that fans from other clubs have done a lot worse this season to other teams supporters.
Buses are allowed and do park inside our ground. Supporters just have to get off it beforehand to pay in through the turnstiles.

as you have parking in the ground players buses etc should be afforded that facility.
dont try and water this down with other issues,if you had 2 pitches we would warm up on the training pitch,ask athlone we always do.vandalism is moronic and that is what happened,we have been there before several times but this time a MORON has put your club in a poor light,that is the issue stick to it!!
Jesus don't wet yourself champ, I've asked you two questions
Did you, as a club, ask to drive the bus into the ground?
What time did you arrive at? (Cause you can't drive in if supporters are walking in now can you?)
Do you know the answers to these questions?
I've already said it's an unfortunate instance, but that is society isn't? Stuff like this could happen to your car parked on a street in any town so it's not an exclusive problem that we have down here
Every town & city in Ireland has scum who do this. Theres no respect for anything these days. Mick Wallace & others are trying to do something positive for young people, what happen is a disgrace , but not exclusive to Limerick. I think we saw over the last few days decent poeople fro Limerick & everying thats wrong about not just Limerick but the whole island.
They were probably told that they couldn't park in the ground, but that there was a poorly lit patch of ground to the rear where they could park instead [in a cunning revenge attack for the fiasco in Wexford last season].
Anyway, disgraceful behaviour from some little scut who's already gotten away with it.
Have to say, it was a lovely bus.
Lads look at the video footage and there's loads of parking in the ground. I think the question of why the bus wasn't parked in there should at least be addressed. It's an unfortunate incident, but it could have happened anywhere, I've witnessed young fans of other clubs walking past it talking about doing exactly the same thing. It's a lovely bus but it's also very attention grabbing and sadly in todays society it's going to attract the wrong sort of attention. Hopefully it was reported to the Gardai and it may be possible that the vandalism was witnessed or caught on CCTV.
