Pity, it's great to have a loud and colourful away support at Ireland games, it adds to the atmosphere.

A group of Napoli "fans" travelled to the match basically just to start something with the fans of some particular Bulgarian club(can't remember which). The group had links with fans of a rival Bulgarian club.
I am surprised that the Herald has not ran a story blaming Bohs or Rovers fans for this !!!!
