you should leave them up until you are no longer the champions of europes greatest rugby competition, show your pride in the flag keep leinster blue for as long as possible that way you will remember everyday ye are the champs. who knows ye might never win it again so enjoy every minute.
then again if ye retain it you might need to take them down to wash them
Just because a post upsets you, that doesn’t mean that it is wrong. People have different views in all aspects of life, this is a key ingredient to an interesting conversation.

Rathdown motors in Terenure still have them up. They deal in Hyundais and I noticed this slight similarity...

Cant believe your neighbour asked you to take them down, the cheek of him! Is he trying to sell his house to munster supporters of something????

I'm leaving my house flags up til the end of the week, I'll take them down on Monday.

So much for that - still have the flag up outside the house!

On Monday night, went to walk the dogs in a place I hadn't been for about 2 years and passed a house with a huge Leinster flag in the garden. Well done house in Kilrane on way to St. Helen's beach :happy clapper: .

The great thing about having the Rabo Final next week is it gives an excuse to leave the house & car flags up all week.
