A better solution might be for Dublin City Council to reduce the number of pointless poles, some of which don’t even have anything on them, and other street clutter.
College Green, in particular, looks fucking stupid.
Love a good sticker.
“dozens of Temple Bar street poles” …so just one corner of temple Bar?
Oh no! Not the precious poles! I like the stickers.
A little sanding paper defeats the paint, who don’t they spend your money on something worth fighting for?
Smacks of that anti chewing gum path resurface they’ve tried in a few places since I was a kid. Kinda worked but it’s not bonded to the lower layer and is easily disturbed/removed
What a joke, as if cleaner lamposts will make Dublin suddenly shine
I love them, I take pictures of the football ones and put some up of my team (Shels)
Wish they could coat the place in junkie repellent
We’re all in trouble if society thinks stickers are ‘mini masterpieces’!!
>“I have not come across one single person who does not appreciate the stickers seen around Dublin,” said photographer Carl Foran, who runs the Instagram account @stickerzofdublin.
I feel like it’s like asking Guinness what the population things of drink.
I neither appreciate or dislike them they are just kind of there and I never thought much about them.
Feels like a waste of money to try tackle this though.
The stickers are awesome!
I’m glad DCC is finally tackling the real problems in Dublin.
Riveting stuff
I realise this is such a trivial issue but I honestly want to complain to DCC about this. Of all the things they could fix to make Dublin nicer – potholes and mismatched tarmac everywhere, filthy pavements, poles and signalling boxes everywhere – they choose stickers?? Seriously?? The stickers actually are one of the few things that add some interest to the commercial wasteland that is Dublin city centre
Guess I’ll just make special paint-proof stickers so.
IF ANY OF U PUT UP A STICKER WITH MY NAME ON IT I’LL FUCKIN BRAIN YIZ!
Yeah, it’s the stickers that make Temple Bar grotty and tacky.
This, this is the number one priority.
Forget war in Ukraine, housing crisis, energy crisis, etc.
So glad the council is finally tackling this awful problem.
Even with a new government DCC will still be comprised of Fine Gael brained fascists. They wanted all murals removed in case some one thought about making a political mural like those in Northern Ireland celebrating our freedom.
The stickers are a blight and have increasingly become a medium for extreme politics. This is a positive step
I actually like a sticker and I like that Dublin has a good sticker culture. I love seeing different football supporters from all around the world leave their mark. Out of all the problems in Dublin, this seems like an overly expensive remedy to a problem that doesn’t really exist.

Good, they’re horrible.
