gufct, in fairness, IMO, there was nothing serious about the events in the showgrounds. Galway fans got an equaliser, and understandably were delighted! Let their emotions out.
Its not like they attacked a player is it?
[QUOTE=gufct;743041]Saigon to compare the two incidents is stupid and the waterford fans were actually on the wall not on the pitch and also trying to make a joke out of it with the mention of the Sunderland display by Macnas is just as inane.

Chill out GUFCT and by the way the Waterford fans were most definitely on e pitch and it looked alot more serious than what happened in Shligo. If you could call it serious.
The fine for unruly behaviour was heavy, but we probably would not have got it only for a supporter accidentally collided with a match official. Much worse goes on unpunished at other league grounds.
The fine for the flare is fair enough, as per the rules of the FAI. The individual who let off the flare was asked not to do so during the game, but this request didn't seem to register with him. :mad:
GUFC will be banning anyone who lets off flares in Terryland Park or inside any away grounds. GUST have decided to ban anyone who lets off a flare inside any EL ground from away buses. This was agreed on at a recent meeting.
The behaviour of our away support is normally exemplary, as supporters of other clubs will testify.
Good move Pa. But its sad as I think flares are an excellent addition to atmosphere in particular at the infamous play-off against Drogs. We lost but we were applauded by the Drogs fans as they left the ground while we stayed singing and waving flares. but I suppose times have changed and the some of the young lads of today can get out of control.
i seen the fan on the pitch and 2 stewards just watching from a few yards away.theres no consistency in the fines handed out.were rovers fined for letting off flares in terryland????if so how much???
:ball:To be precise they met with a three man sub commitee from the management c'tee. The fine was not as bad as people thought but a fine none the less. Its easy get carried away, rush of blood and all that but they will be monitored and hopefully it wont happen again. GUFC V SLIGO should be interesting in light!!!!!!
Were St.Pat's fined for the flares their fans let off in Terryland earilier in the season?
yes they have been fined numerous times this season.
