shams v bray next friday

[Bry Boy]

Well stevo da gull , I think you are being a little unfiar to the supporters.
how about the rovers fans on the pitch ?.
whilst one of our fans gets barred for running on the pitch,the rovers fans dont ?.
they can get in with fireworks and flares and there is no problem, but our supporters bring in a smoke bomp and there up quick enough.
and the rovers fans that got in the bray section s*****g on.
and for the two fingers , what is that all about,we will get fined because a little young lad stick the fingers up.
is this a nancy club ?
look this is not a rant or any sort, but just saying the problems at our club are very much minor to other clubs.

I don't have a big problem with people sticking their fingers up. I'm just pretty sure that you can earn the club a fine by running on the pitch to do it, which makes it stupid.
Throwing a bottle at the linesman (pretty sure Hooperman wasn't beside him at the time) is really stupid and thuggish. I also don't think you can justify behaviour by saying 'it's not as bad x, y or z's behaviour'. I know that we don't have a large problem at the club, and I hope it stays that way.

As for the fireworks and flares. I suppose it's just tougher to make your way through a few thousand Hoops to confiscate a flare than it is to go through a dozen Bray fans to get a smoke bomb. Not trying to make excuses, I reckon it plays a part though.

....infact i seem to remember a bray player throwing a throw in straight out cause he was rushing to get away from the sideline.

:confused::eek:

It was a sh!te throw!

I noticed the bottle being thrown all right but didnt see much else mind you I was sitting a bit further down, the smoke bomb just seemed to gas everyone who was around it:confused:. I also doubt we'll get fined, watching back the RTE coverage, they had such a riciculous hard-on for Rovers that Bray fans could have literally set the place on fire while standing on their heads and no one would have noticed :rolleyes:. As for the game, was very impressed with how we started and showed good fighting spirit to come back. Personally thought Dempsey was our best player on the night hopefully his and Shields? (my poor memory) substitutions were thinkin of Tuesday and nothing serious!
