****** mr Browne....being an upstanding member of the Linfield Community you will know that the agreement between Glentoran and Linfield was that when a league game was invovled, any supporters who do damage to a ground pay for the damage. That means as we done damage to Windsor on mcBride day we pay for the damage and we honoured that agreement!
On the 23rd April Linfield did not honour their agreement for paying for the damage, which will not be fixed until Glentoran recieve payment, be it from Linfield FC or their sugar daddies IFA.
In Cup games whoever held either semi final, be it Linfield or Glentoran they paid for the damage.
On saturday, the damage done to South and Kop stands, that was similar reasons to why Glentoran FC refused the use of grounds for neutral games last year to the IFA (somethign your fans give us a lot of stick over). A club only gets a couple of hundred pounds rental fee for holding a semi final which they are not invovled in, but it is their liability insurance which cover the games, not the IFA's, the Glens objected to this and were happy to see them go elsewhere as the money recieved hardly covered the electric bill for the games.
Kinda blows your theory outta the water big lad, though Im sure they'll be another spin on it, but lets not let the FACTS get in the way of things eh!
You do realise that there was damage caused in the North Stand at the Final as well?
