Apart from that there was no bother from either sets of fans. Segregated for
the game but all mingled and chatted away at half and full time. Bit of singing
and a bit of banter.
The Derry ones are a pile of balls. I remember last year when we got shafted by the Corkies there was some really heated stuff going on right in front of the stewards and **** all was done.Quote:

rovers had no stewards near us when in tolka and the bohs ones were grand and very helpful when they were asked to do something.
imo ours are crap aswell.

Personally I taught the Derry security was class,big,huge,shaved heads and mean faces,what else do ya need?
Harps was a joke,we had over 400 fans on Friday,no bag searchs.Two stewards(or stewerts as a few on the Harps forum call them:D) that did nothing,flares and smoke canisters were openly being passed around and once I seen a steward look directly at this happening and just looked away. 40+ bog/till rolls got in aswell
we had about ten stewards to four ucd fans on friday, feckin students dont know what theyll do next, feckin tax dodgers
250 odd people at Turners X last night and a steward tried moving about a half dozen of us from the St.Annes end... :rolleyes:
To be fair to the poor guy he explained that he didn't really care and that his orders were coming from above and when we told him that we were happy where we were he left us to it.

A Polish lad came over to us in the St. Annes last night and asked us to move to the designated away fan section :DQuote:
