Just heard this on I102-104 Sportsnews aswell, it said the referee mentioned it in his match report and quoted Fran Gavin as saying if it's found to be true they will ban the player for a maximum of 5 games! Was at the game myself and didn't notice Boco react out of the ordinary to anything that happened, but as any player knows there's a lot of banter going on in a game that people on the sidelines never see or hear about.
There's definately no excuses for that sort of behaviour at all and the ironic thing is that I wonder if the unnamed player would be as brave saying it to Joseph Ndo at training or on the team bus??
I wonder what Rovers official reaction will be?
Disgusting stuff and very sad, 5 matches is the least they should be given this scum bag. Club won't stand for one of it's employees being subjevted to this by a fellow professional.Quote:

That's right. Look at all the abuse I've taken from you people on this board and Padraic has never banned any of ye.Quote:

I caan't believe Fran Gavin would comment on something if he did not have all the facts, will be interesting to see who the player is, will have problems looking N'do in the eye after it.
If he is foind guilty of something as serious as this, then I would hope something will accompany a possible 5 game ban, financial penalty might help send a message through to him.
Put a burning cross in his front garden.Quote:

Just becuase there was in house discipline which wa sprobably only a fine doesnt mean the matter should be dropped.
I doubt the whinger would be so dismissive of the matter had it been Joseph Ndo on the reciveing end of the abuse.
We just have to wait and see what the FAI Disciplinary Committee do which will hear the case on 6th May. But its a Dub club :rolleyes:Quote:

Ya that will show them they are serious about the whole issue.
You can take it that McGuinness will receive the minimum five match ban.
Lets see :rolleyes:Quote:
