Don't think its that we don't have the fight,i think at the moment we're just not good enough.When we have all the injured lads back we should have as strong a side as any but in my opinion the manager is restricting us with his system,would love to see us getting back to playing ball but i don't think that'll happen while he's in charge,he has his own ideas and obviously believes in them.Quote:

So the team are following your defeatest lead then? You have drawn 1-1 with the league leaders, sit second 4 points off top, have scored the same as the leaders and conceded only 3 more with over a third of the season left....yeah! sure catastrophic!Quote:

It really is a funny old game as we are a long way behind you on GD and Pats fans havent stopped talking about us already being champions.

I replied to your question with about 20/30 at the most. I was in Kennedys looking out the window at them at the time, just got in before they shut the doors
It was a rhetorical question really, but no you didnt say it was ok. The 'at the most' is a bit misleading in a tone of seeming acceptance, whereas something like 'there were at least' would sound a little more condemning. It is HomerJay id like hear an answer from tbh as he would be seen as somone who stands among those who would be accused and no doubt knows the type and people i'm on about. I do acknowledge though that HomerJay himself would not be a culprit
Bad types?Quote:

The usual crap afterwards for them., kept behind, ambushed etc. I would strongly recommend that all away fans visiting Oriel to get a home stand ticket and avoid the crap that their stewards dole out up there.Quote:

They were in The Park behind the Ecco Road drinking all day, Theres videos of them on facebook during the day aswell.Quote:

Its only Bohs, Rovers, Drogheda, Prob Pats now aswell this happens too in Oriel
Give over will ye! Away fans are kept behind at almost all grounds, whats the big deal with waiting 5 or tens minutes after ft. Ambushed...funny how for all the years attending LoI matches home or away i have not been 'ambushed'; i have seen sets of dirtbag fans going at it on occaisons but somehow both sets of idiots seemed well enough aware of what was to happen which is hardly being ambushed. We all know where hotspots are and the do's and don'ts in general and trouble or getting caught up in it is avoided. As for stewards doling out crap, iv heard this type of crap being siad about stewards all over the league at some point, but never heard what this crap is or found that it wasnt warrented in some way. "Sorry sir you are not allowed to smoke in the stand!" fan spends the next forever giving out about being given crap by a steward in Oriel*...boohooo!Quote:

Dont see why Pats would become an issue. Ive never experienced any major problem in Richmond. Pats only seem to have issues with their own fans in Richmond re seat allocation and overcrowding. What may or may not have happened in Oriel, as nothing more has been said, is unlikely to ever happen again so a once off!Quote:

Are we the only ones that the stewards in Oriel were completely sound to then? They were actually good craic in fairness to them.
Well done on avoiding trouble all your life, unfortunately away fans who just wanted to support the team got caught up in the train station fighting between the yobs.Quote:

By the bye, kudos for your voluntary work as a steward.
I thought that the stewarding of the Bohs match in Thomond was excellent What comes around goes around.
The stewards are the same week in and week out. Limerick fans may have simply behaved in a manner without preconception thats caused by the type of spurious comments similar to Daleymountrower's above. Im not a steward, i wouldnt touch the job, but as a sports fan ive found that politeness is more often than not met with politeness, and likewise ignorance with ignorance! In my experience the most pleasant stewards have been at Richmond Park, the least pleasant at Tallaght, though that is based on one guy who admitted himself that he had nothing to do with Rovers or FAI and wasnt very helpful in general.Quote:

'our yobs' are an oppertunistic scourge, 'your yobs' and everyone elses the same. Being coralled as you put it post match, is a nuisance be it United Park or Dalymount or where ever, its hardly a shocker when it happens. Bohs fans would never hang on around Phibsborough in hope of intercepting visiting support so kudos to you there!
