Vs. Sligo Rovers

[Schumi]

I presume Sligo will deal with the issue.

I won't hold my breath on that one.

[SligoBrewer]

I won't hold my breath on that one.

it wont be dealt with..i promise you that

[feo123]

not a hope of anything happening, 100% certain of that! yer man was a bit of a muppet it has to be said, i dont condone the bottles being thrown, it was totally stupid and should never happen!! i was right in front of the fella wit his top off and he waas trying to get by the lady steward and shouting 'do you wanna go' at the rovers fan(s)

A list of ground regulations are in the programme.
Drinking in the ground
Directing foul and abusive language at individuals
Failing to adhere to directions of a steward
These came out at the meeting afterwards.And ye are supposed to be the educated ones.

[pineapple stu]

In the first five minutes, you said? Don't think the above stand.

Ground regulation 8 says "Any person who fails to comply with the instructions from a steward may be ejected from the ground", which I presume is the reguation which you allege we broke. You can't actually break the above regulation, therefore we didn't break that either.

You don't refer to your lie that we had a bagful of cans either.

I assume you were one of the stewards then? How do you respond to the inept stewarding at the match? How are the stewards going to respons to the formal complaint made against three of them? How do the stewards justify standing and watching as yer man in the Celtic top deliberately started looking for trouble during half time?

Our club has acted appropriately and swiftly. I've yet to see any such action from Sligo, whose fans (with one or two exceptions) and stewards insist on taking the moral upper ground.

[Poor Student]

I don't know if Sligo hire private stewards but they seemed to be volunteer fans. Some of them were as animated as your average fan on the touchline with matters regarding the field of play. Such recruitment policy lends to unobjective stewarding. The Carlisle in Bray suffers from the same problem.

All are volunteers.Security people are on contract.Most of them have been F.A.I trained by mccluskey.6 UCD FANS CAUSED MORE TROUBLE THAN 250 DERRY FANS.A BIT OF MANNERS IS ALL THAT IS NEEDED.

There were more than six of us.

Care to address my issues and stop dodging things?

Again, the one UCD fan who caused trouble has been dealt with. What are Sligo going to do about their trouble makers?

There was 8 UCD fans in the singing section and more UCD fans in the other stand. I was in the group of 8 and I didn't violate a single one of the rules you stated.

If the money isn't there the money isn't there but you're going to have poor stewarding. I'll repeat again, their sheer laziness and lethargy resulted in the second incident taking place. I don't condone his behaviour and he was rightly chastised. However, they knew it was coming and passed the buck onto the next steward and next steward until he was down the other end of the stand and trouble flared up.

[red bellied]

The reaction on here by some is way over the top. One muppet takes off his shirt and makes threats at the Rovers singing section (laughable more than anything). Another idiot reacts and pegs a plastic bottle at him. Countless posts over nothing, really petty stuff.

Bring your own stewards next time if you feel the Rovers volunteers arent up to yer standards.

You're right; good spot. Changed. Just looking for consistency and acknowledgement is all.

[SligoBrewer]

im not trying to be funny here right, serious question for the ucd lads... how many stewards at a game would ye have?

would 4 or 5 be enough?
or is it campus security?

They're private. You can hire them if you like.
