He sells half time raffle tickets so he's close enough
i was informed on way out from finn park thatthe two culprits have being identified and that action is being taken in the form of notifying their parents. i was also told that ameeting was to take place on the sat morning regarding incidents like this that have cost the club fines in the past. i am not a menber of the management committe but do sell half time raffle tickets among other duties that i carry out on behalf of sligo rovers. if these guys are true supporters maybe thay should own up and apologise to the club and pay the fine when it is announced. i have no say whatsoever in what is going to happen to these guys but i have being informed that action is going to be taken
what the hell is telling their parents gonna do? youd swear we were in primary school! faie enough the lads shouldnt have done is but, should the blame not partly go Harps side, they had no stewarding our side, the only steards there were Mr's. Burke, Carney and McClout. bit of a shambles us havin to bring our own MC members up to steward at an away game!
Clubman is an ex-committee member
what is banning these people going to do for the people who are being so in favour of this? It is obvious to everyone these lads were too drunk and only doing what they thought was a laugh, what was happening on the pitch seems to be irrelevant and anyone using a special olympics match as a way as a way to further scrutinise these lads is not right. The lads have definatly learned a lesson and are more than wiling to rectify their mistake with a donation and that should be good enough for everyone. some people here are too quick to judge they just need to get off their high horses.
If they are so anxious to be on the pitch why not bring them onto the pitch next Saturday night and introduce them to the crowd before the game ?
I agree we shouldnt judge these guys so quickly I know they ran on to the pitch and we tought they were makin fun of the speacial olympics crowd but there were off there trolleys and they wouldve done anything that they tought would be a good laugh a donation to a charity for special needs and should'nt be let inta pub BEFORE a match just incase don't think everyone should be so harsh even though its there fault for drinking so much
everybody seems to forget that these guy traveled to see the club, more then we can say from a lot of other supporters and aye they were drunk and thought it was a laugh. It turned out not to be. Are they the only ones ever done that? and flares rule, they should be allowed and not banned!!!! If the fines are such a big problem for the club maybe they should play with no supporters then you're sure of no trouble. A pint and football go hand in hand and sometimes we all get drunk and do stupid things, and in this case they already said they will make a donation. a lot of other people would just wait till it blows over, not these guys. to me its case closed and GO ROVERS!! gardai and banning for life what a bol**cks!!!!
Maybe the idiots didn't notice the people on the pitch were special needs but they had to notice that there were kids on the pitch for and they stayed on for a few minutes when they were playing a game. They should of been thrown out(maybe it is a tad much reporting it, but I wouldn't blame anyone who did).
They should be paying a donation to special needs and barred for at the very least 1 game, if not what is to stop anyone else doing it again.
Well, Rio kicked a cailin at The Bridge on Saturday and he got away with a bunch of flowers. How come no one has blamed Ray Gallagher yet ?
have you read the thread,if you have they said they were so why keep winging about a donation when they are going given one and it is being put way out of proportion,when the lads ran the pitch in derry during the game and their was nothing about a life ban but when they run on the pitch at half time they want to ban them for life how stupid.
ok i accept that they have apologised to the club and are making a donation its not for me to say that they should i only reported here what i was told. so let that be the last of it i can understand over exuberance and drink can change the mentality of a person. so im sure they have learned there lesson.i do believe that they come from decent families so i suppose we all make mistakes. i will forget the incident nad put it to bed at the end of the day rovers nned all the support they can get. good luck and up the bit o red
But there was no kids on the pitch at the time. And am I to assume by the above that is not the 1st time these two fellas have done this? All it would of took is for someone at the game who was also drunk to try and remove them and the incident could of gotten a lot worse.
will everyone please stop talking about this on this thread if you want to talk about the 2 lads who ran on the pitch why don't we make a thread for it ? this thread should be about Sligo Rovers performance in the match
Good result against Harps and a bullet header as well by Mauro.
