I was there last November - hooked up with a pal to watch Utd v Arsenal. I got to Limerick early so I could have a look around and found it rather bleak and scruffy. The market, which I had been advised was not to be missed, had about twenty five stalls :-(
My friend also cautioned me to keep shtum if Arsenal scored as most of the local pikies were all ardent Utd fans.
