This is all code for a mass organised pre match brawl Millwall style right?
Donnybrook , is the natural place for such a disorganised gathering -

The Indo better not get wind of this or they'll be hyping up the Leinster-Clermont riots expected in St Stephen's Green with fans hitting each other with bottles of fine wine and blinding each other with camenbert! :D

The natural place for this is , DONNYBROOK/ˈdɒnɪbrʊk/ , has to be , tradition dictates ..........

"A scene of uproar and disorder; a heated argument.

We are in Ireland, in what was once a village on the high road out of Dublin but which is now one of that city’s suburbs. King John gave a licence in 1204 to hold an annual fair in Donnybrook.

By the eighteenth century it had become a vast assembly, held on August 26 and the following 15 days each year, a gathering-place for horse dealers, fortune-tellers, beggars, wrestlers, dancers, fiddlers, and the sellers of every kind of food and drink. It was renowned in Ireland and beyond for its rowdiness and noise, and particularly for the whiskey-fuelled fighting that went on after dark. A passing reference in, of all sober works, Walter Bagehot’s The English Constitution of 1867, gives a flavour: “The only principle recognised ... was akin to that recommended to the traditionary Irishman on his visit to Donnybrook Fair, ‘Wherever you see a head, hit it’.” The usual weapon was a stick of oak or blackthorn that Irishmen often called a shillelagh (a word which derives from the town of that name in County Wicklow). The legend was that visitors to Donnybrook fair would rather fight than eat.

As Donnybrook progressively became a residential suburb of Dublin, the fair became more and more a nuisance until a campaign was got up to have it closed; in 1855 the rights to the fair were bought up by Dublin Corporation and it was suppressed. It was around that time that its name started to be used to describe a brawl, at first in the form like Donnybrook fair but then elliptically."

We should apply for a heritage grant , reviving ancient traditions . http://www.worldwidewords.org/weirdwords/ww-don1.htm

Hi guys
Can I suggest everybody sticks to plain English on this post, without plays on words, references to football hooligans etc, to allow for the fact that English is not the first language of the Clermont supporters. Funny as some of the comments are, they are likely to cause confusion in the translation.

D'accord , je dessolate :
L'endroit normal pour ceci est, DONNYBROOK/ˈdɒnɪbrʊk/, doit être, tradition dicte .......... " ; Une scène de tumulte et de désordre ; un argument heated. Nous sommes en Irlande, dans ce qui était par le passé un village sur la haute route hors de Dublin mais qui est maintenant une des banlieues de cette ville. Le Roi John a donné un permis en 1204 de juger un annuaire juste dans Donnybrook. Par le XVIIIème siècle c'était devenu un vaste ensemble, s'est tenu le 26 août et les 15 jours suivants tous les ans, un recueillir-endroit pour des marchands de cheval, des fortune-tellers, des mendiants, des lutteurs, des danseurs, des violoneurs, et les vendeurs de chaque genre de nourriture et de boisson. Il renowned en Irlande et là-bas pour son rowdiness et bruit, et en particulier pour le combat whiskey-rempli de combustible qui a continué après l'obscurité. Une référence de dépassement dans, de tous les travaux sobres, la constitution anglaise de Walter Bagehot de 1867, donne une saveur : « Le seul principe identifié… était apparenté à cela recommandé à l'Irlandais traditionary lors de sa visite à la foire de Donnybrook, `partout où vous voyez une tête, le coup it'. » que l'arme habituelle était un bâton de chêne ou de prunellier que les Irlandais ont souvent appelé un shillelagh (un mot qui dérive de la ville de ce nom dans le comté Wicklow). La légende était que les visiteurs à la foire de Donnybrook combattraient plutôt que mangent. Pendant que Donnybrook devenait progressivement une banlieue résidentielle de Dublin, la foire est devenue de plus en plus un ennui jusqu'à ce qu'une campagne ait été levée pour l'avoir clôturé ; dans 1855 les droites à la foire ont été raflées par société de Dublin et elle a été supprimée. Elle était autour de ce temps que son nom a commencé à être employé pour décrire une bagarre, d'abord dedans à la forme comme la foire de Donnybrook mais d'autre part l'elliptically." ; Nous devrions solliciter une concession d'héritage, rétablissant des traditions antiques. http://www.worldwidewords.org/weirdwords/ww-don1.htm

Parfait : La plupart des défenseurs Nobel Montferrand satisfont me permettent d'expliquer que notre maison originale est dans Donnybrook et le parc pas du RDS ou de Croke, il est l'emplacement historique de ce rassemblement rustique irlandais traditionnel.
