According to The Sligo Champion there were four arrests, three adults and one juvenile, arising out of Saturday night's incidents. The juvenile was released without charge and the three adults were up before a special sitting of the District Court on Sunday. Released on bail. Whilst the article did not give their names and addresses it stated that they travelled to the game by bus. Would a reasonable guess be that they were shams supporters?
Will be interesting to see the outcome of this.
Think Rovers will need to up their game if they have pretensions of challenging Dundalk. It was laboured win,albeit against a limited side. Think Brando' s form will be the tipping point between relative success and another season of mediocre dross.
Maybe we can get some of the loanees fron west ham sooner rather than later. Could make all the difference.
Ollie Horgan is gonna be on OTB on NewsTalk soon.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Without having listened to it, let me guess what he said.
"We were very lucky to beat Derry".
"If we stay up, it'll be a bigger achievement that being promoted".
"We'll do very well to get any points out of any games".
"We're no good".

"We'd do well to stop Dundalk hitting double figures on Friday"
"Honestly, I think we should stay at home."
Sligo Rovers "a limited side" my arse, they were the far better side on Saturday, playing a far more entertaining brand of football and but for on the field antics, throwing themselves on the floor at every opportunity and conning the referee they would have lost the game. Sligo Rovers maybe a new young team but they will learn fast and are a talented bunch who will do well this year in the league.
As for Shamrocks fans, they were a disgrace!
Is this problem with Rovers fans only a new thing?
Honest question. We've never had any trouble with them, in fact, we've always had a really good relationship with Rovers fans.
Hopefully all will go smooth next Monday night....
There is a small number of scrotes who come out of the woodwork for games with Bohs, Dundalk and Sligo and try to cause trouble. They're egged on by a small number of sad old men who are also rarely seen at games. Because these people don't actually follow the football team, they seem to mistakenly think there's some sort of rivalry with Sligo and target it as their big trip on the ****.
the incident with the OAP was that in Mooneys as well?
Gary Cronin is he the right man to manage Longford Town?
Saturday away games would obviously bring more of them out as well. A similar element travelled to Longford on a few occasions and did damage in pubs in Longford and nearby towns including foot.ie's spiritual home, Tarmonbarry. I think we moved any home games against ye away from the Saturday night recently.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.
