When at the Rovers V Bohs cup match at the end of August,, rovers fans were holding up a Union Jack with Bohs written accross it. Where does the sectarian aspect of Rovers V Bohs hatred come from?? Rather confuses me/.

Boez/linfield/rangers song has been around for a long time.

Probably their connections to linfield, they seem to always have an english player playing for them, proudly displaying the rangers pennant in their bar.

BTW not all Rovers fans follow celtic.

No matter what they do though they will never merit any attention cos they are not a big club.

:rolleyes: Why wouldn't Bohs proudly display a reminder of the team they beat in the club's most famous European match? Gobdaw.

Maybe if yous had a ground of your own with a bar in it and beat someone of note in Europe you might want to hang up a pennant one day too.

By the way, you'd want to watch them stones, living in a glass house and all: where was Vincent Matthews from? And who did Jim Smith play for in Scotland before joining Rovers? You've been signing Brits and Huns with the best of us from day fecking one so get over yourselves. "Amongst the many class players who came to came to Milltown from across the water and from Northern Ireland during this era [1920s]..."

Oh and forgot to add boez fans wish they were Rovers fans. Always reading up our history and our forums.:D

When is the next boez/loyalist love in?

EB, you're wasting your time arguing with a superior intellect that can come up with gems like this...

All Rovers are superior to the minnows!

Serious question though but thanks for bypassing it.

Didn't Shamerock Rovers board of directors have to issue an apology for their link-up with the RUC a few years ago. The sectarian wierdness of the average Sham is probably the oddest thing in LOI football.

I'm still looking forward to the visit of the homeless part-timers and their football franchise to The Big Club tomorrow.

How does it go again...

15 Leagues
24 Cups
7 Company Belly-ups

Sorry, it's a new league this year so the correct figures are:
0 Leagues
24 Cups
0 Belly-Up's

The delusion continues.

Lads lads, easy up there. The only club in the south with fan connections with loyalism and linfield is apparently galway. Now i only say this because of frequent visits to terryland from the billy boys, this according to a linfield fan. So focus your attentions else where.
