From 9.40 onward is footage from the match. It is clear as day the Bohs fans singing hadn't realized a minutes silence had started. As soon as they had they shut up.
Now what really happened, one of your vermin shouted "Glad he's dead" of a member and supporter of our club for 35 years. Very respectful.
Then another one of your pieces of filth showed their typical class and shouted "Dig him up" which was met by howls of laughter from more of the pieces of filth that support your club.
Glad we could clarify what really happened though. :rolleyes:
Thats a great twist on what you actually read on our forum.Quote:

Now lets clarify again what really happened. Two idiots, out of a crowd of 2,000, chanted for a couple of seconds, and were promptly told to shut up and and to never darken the doors of Dalymount again.
I dont think there is any real need. Our fans out able to self-police the actions of two idiots who were clearly inaudible to the targeted player. Pity Shamrock Rovers fans weren't able to self-police, the many more than two fans, who are clearly audible on TV racially abusing their former player Joesph Ndo.Quote:

You clearly weren't at it either if you saying any of our fans shouted anything, until we heard how a Shamrock Rovers fan told us how he was glad that a much respected fan of our club was dead.Quote:

Ah but it was inaudible - I was at the game in Tallaght, in that stand even - and didn't hear it. According to Bohs fans, that's alright so. The audibility is critical. Why did only two fans police it - what happened the hearing of all the hundreds of Bohs fans around the culprits and those fans 'policing' it. Are they the only two who heard it? Or did the others just not bother? Were the culprits thrown out when highlighted?Quote:

The hypocrisy of Bohs fans and bitterness makes the comprehensive win sweeter.
Ryan clearly couldn't hear it so I doubt he will need to rise above. I wonder will he rise above trying to celebrate in front of the Bohs fans like he did in the last derby?Quote:

As many as the more than two Bohs fans who broke through their own advertising to get on the pitch after the LSC winner in extra time? Only they seemed to run away again, so maybe they had a change of mind about their idea..Quote:

Now lets assume that only two fans did say it to them. That would be two more than the amount of Rovers fans who could say claim the same thing.
However clearly a lot more than two fans involved in this considering these idiots left the ground fairly promptly.
There is no hypocrisy in the fact that we practice what we preach in being an anti-racist supporters and those who behave in such a manner are not welcome by our fans.
I would consider hypocrisy to be more the fact that Shamrock claim to be serious about dealing with they're scummy element when convicted hooligans are welcome on their board.
Effort from a bohs fan 6 months late.Dick !! Get real or pish off !!Quote:

Audible or not, the television cameras were there, each shout was as loud as the next and heard clearly over the tv. If I was a rovers fan, I'd sure as hell be quick with apologies rather than trying to clear any name. Downright shocking behaviour.
Gypos never change as we can all see :)
Wow, Bohs11 sure comes out swinging at everyone doesn't he.
(Much like the several people lifted from the Jodi stand by the Gardaí during Friday's game)

You really have to love that bohs forum. 2 of their resident crackpots for example lying through their teeth as usual. First we have 2Ic who is telling everyone how he pointed out someone at the game who was making nazi salutes, and believe it or not that person wasn't even at the game. Then we have Madder, who thankfully only has to stumble up and back from Grangegorman to games, telling everyone it was just rovers fans throwing bottles, interrupting a minutes silence and generally acting the maggott, even though he is constantly being corrected by his fellow bohs fans. Bohs fans really haven't settled well into mediocrity yet. God help them when the noose really tightens around their necks in Zurich Bank park.
seeing as though you brought it up that would be the person who abused Simon Webb about his wife dying of cancer and was banned by SRFC for life and shortly thereafter had the ban lifted? He must be gutted to have missed out on Friday night in that case. Would have been a great chance to showcase his talents.Quote:

Meanwhile in the Des Kelly stand there's a little step behind the goal for usual idiots to spend the whole game jumping on to to wave at their mates, and of course when the goal goes in to jump over on to the pitch and awkwardly wander a few yards on to the pitch to show how hard they are. Can we not put Rovers fans in the other end of the Jodi if Connaught St doesn't have any repair works done to it? Seems like it would cut down on a lot of the crap, although Bohs fans wouldn't be able to keep an eye on the Nazi salutes and late-term abortions that Rovers fans get up to.
At these games, there's often 2 games going on. One on the pitch, and the other in the stands. Some people are not interested in what's happening on the pitch, and spend the 90 minutes goading and taunting.
I don't know if a silence was requested on Friday, but if it was, it was the worst possible fixture to ask for it, with very little chance of it being observed. Applause has become the norm in the league now, and it should have been asked for on Friday.
Yes indeed, how dare anyone expect fans to observe a minutes silence and presumably having hoardings around the place is also asking far far too much of fans. The pitch invasion is now mandatory and just has to be accepted. The comments by the scum in the Des Kelly Stand (and accompanying guffaws from the rabble around them) were,in fact, all down to Bohs ridiculous expectations of common decency.Quote:

No arrests on friday as far as I know Jicked,any evidence orjust still in "land of make believe" ? only one sides fans on the pitch as we both know and it was not Bohs.Quote:

Perhaps you should ask why gardai took that stance rather than blather on about security deficencies. Thats Dundalk,Derry Pats and now Bohs where shams have trundled out the old "inadequate security" line to explain fans misbehaviour. Any chance it might dawn on you that the problem is the scum element of your support rather than everyone else's security ?
Just to set to rest the minds of those precious darlings about the place who seem to be asking after my whereabouts here when any incident of a nature as tenuous as this occurs - I'm off to attend a special meeting with SARI and the United Nations this afternoon where we are due to discuss such subjects as direct transport links between parts of the same city, the price of fish, the future of Greece within the European Union, "Pigs Heads and their Juxtaposition in Modern Calcio" and the state of Liechtensteiner football over the past few seasons.
So not to worry your pretty little heads about it all - it's being flagged up...
I'm not going to get involved in a blaming game as any right-minded person knows this shouldn't have happened and it has been well condemned in all quarters.
Two things I don't understand though:
1. Why does a sligo fan feel the need to start this thread and make the thing even worse than it already is?
2. Why do we persist with minutes silences nowadays anyway? The minutes applause is far more fitting and has become more the norm in recent times.
Anyway, perhaps the time has come for this thread to be locked as it serves no positive purpose whatsoever.
Actually it was all in the one thread concerning this weekends fixtures, but one of the mods decided to split it off as it was a seperate topic on its own. The OP wasn't starting any trouble. To your second point, are LoI fans really that much of neanderthals that we can't respect a minutes silence for a deceased fellow fan? Reaaalllly??Quote:

And why are people saying it should be a minute applause and not silence, to drown out any abuse.. Are we really saying society in general or football supporters in particular cannot be trusted to behave like a half decent human being for at least 1 minute of their lives. If so we are really fecked as a society. Plenty of minute silences go off with no issues all around the world in football grounds all the time. Pity thats too difficult for SRFC supporters to comprehend. LoI football... I dont know why I bother any more.
In some cases, yes. This thread appears to pay tribute to that. And Ollie Byrne's tribute at the Brandywell was a minute's applause, for just that reason (not sure what other clubs did).Quote:

sorry, no idea if they were charged or not but there were two blokes dragged from the Jodi towards the Leo Burdocks corner by 3/4 Gardaí with their arms behind their back.Quote:

For instance, hundreds of Rovers fans were trying to shush the two blokes and the gang of knackers they were in who were laughing at what they said, which was reported in the Irish Times as the Rovers crowd making "hissing" noises.
So all the Bohs hypocrites are out in force on this thread. We have the evil Rovers bringing a new low by disrupting the minutes silence. Well not quite actually, any of you hypocrites remember late June 2007, Rovers V Bohs, a minutes silence for Terry Palmer's dad Larry, a lifelong Rovers fan and former player? Well some of those nice well behaved Bohs fans shouted abuse during that minutes silence. Not quite the angels you make yourselves out to be really. I don't condone what happened Friday but the hypocrisy from Bohs fans is very annoying.
Likewise the holier than thou Bohs fans complaining about the "scum bag" Rovers fans invading the pitch when we scored. Again I don't condone it but just look what we have here, rewind 4 months and these were the scenes in Dalymount. Another example of hypocrisy coming from D7.
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pi...8&id=513078383
Then we move onto the now infamous photo of Rovers fans posing for a photo doing a roman salute while on an away trip in Italy of all places posted here yet again. Funny how Bohs fans wouldn't dream of posting this photo though.
http://i34.tinypic.com/9zvu4g.jpg
Then we have the whole racism thing. They crucified Rovers over noises heard on an RTE video that may have been monkey noises but could have just as easily been a Hoops Hoops chant as was proven in a video of Rovers arriving at Dublin airport last year when fans chanting Hoops Hoops sounded exactly like monkey noises. Nobody knows for sure what they were and nobody in the stand that night heard any racism. Now we have Bohs fans admitting a couple of their fans made monkey noises at Ryan Thompson on Friday night but it's ok because nobody heard it and one fan told the cuprits to F*** off.
Finally, do you remember the game in Tallaght where Jason Byrne skyed his peno into space? Some gobshíte in the Rovers section threw a bottle on the pitch and it glanced off the linesman that night. Bohs fans were up in arms, calling for points deductions, games behind closed doors etc. Fast forward a year Bohs fans launch at least a dozen bottles at Gary Twigg for having the temerity to score against them again. Last Friday night bottles were thrown on the pitch again by Bohs fans, Pat Flynn picked up one of them drank some coke out of it and threw it back. It was hilarious but Bohs fans aren't on here calling for points deductions and games behind closed doors for themselves. Funny that.
Bohs should really learn that people in glass house shouldn't throw stones.
The difference is that Bohs fans took a stand against it and Bohs fans' self-policing saw the two idiot kids removed from the stand without any need for stewards to get involved. It was actually something to be proud of and heartening to see. Did Rovers do the same when there were monkey chants in Tallaght? No? Didn't think so.Quote:

Good to hear it Reiteoir. I think you should really concentrate on the auld racism though. I know how much energy you put into it the last time. But can you check on amending the legislation that prohibits the sale of something twice? It's terribly unfair.
We only have to go back a month or so even...Bohs fans running 20-30m onto the pitch from the halfway line directly at Rovers fans, nowhere near the celebrations. I'll have a guess at 30-40 of them. Note also the far left Sunday Mirror advertising hoarding at 58 seconds, it's not there at 73 seconds...Quote:

It is moronic views like this self justifying nonsense that are responsible for the ongoing behaviour problems that are associated with shams - someone did something in 2007.... bottles thrown NEAR Gary twigg (in an incident he was suspended for)...etc etcQuote:

Perhaps allowing a convicted football hooligan remain on the board sent out amessage about the clubs stance and they are now reaping the rewards ? Then again maybe its just every other clubs poor security.
No doubt we will get a public statement from shams supporters clubs threatening to boycott matches in Dalymount unless we desist from having minutes silence
Any hooligan directors there ?Quote:
