Hoorbags the lot of ye.
Why? Is it in case they have to dethrone Bohs if they are champions? If this is the case well it really will be win win for Shamrock Rovers in that if they finish second they may be awarded the title anyway, if they win the FAI are off the hook in that regard but they will have to deal with the Bohs financial mess exacerbated by less prize money and no champions league revenue. What a close season ahead of us!Quote:

All down to a delay:D
Come back to me when you're 30 and see if you still think that.Quote:

He got a suspension for the red card, he'll get another one for last night. What more do you want?
Should have been retaken;)Quote:

Why did the FAI's top ref award a peno to Bohs with 5 mins left? And secondly, why is there no cctv footage of the so-called pentagon plane?
Oh that's easy, because it was a clear cut penalty.Quote:

I thought Alan Kelly had a very good game but let a couple of very late tackles and instances of people kicking the ball away go without yellow cards.
It was a peno. No question. The awarding of it, I mean; not the execution of it. :cool:
Thousands of fans run on to the pitch after the All Ireland Finals even though they were repeatedly advised weeks in advance same was no longer allowed.
Kilkenny win the Hurling and their fans run on, stewards attempt to stop them, scuffles ensue with some stewards going to Hospital afterwards and fans claiming assault by stewards.
The whole issue was glossed over by the press - indeed with most coming out in support of the fans.
We all know of how often GAA games degenerate into on pitch battles and referees being attacked yet one person throws a bottle (I am not condoning it) at a football match and the world is about to end!!
That's it so drawing form that logic one more fight outside a chipper or nightclub everyone suffers the consequences and all of the poeple that go to them are scumbags and lets close them all - sure thats the way to go.
Double standards anyone in Irish press anyone??????? (Dont even get me started on Rugy - THe Gentlemans Game (sic) )
BTW I am a Bit O Red Supporter.
It was a definite peno. Crowe played for it but Sully should have done better.Quote:

You might want to re-read that post. Not suggesting you're thuggish, but that post sounds pretty thuggish.Quote:

The bottler (again not Jason Byrne) should be banned, the club should get a fine (justice must be seen to be done), but anything further would be unfair. It'd be impossible for any club to guarantee that wouldn't happen. Punters are allowed to have bottles of Coke and any club could have a yob capable of chucking one.
Rovers 'element' seems, in my opinion, to have lessened in recent years. Maybe I'm wrong. I know the Blues have had one or two Burberries turn up over the years. They don't go to the Tuesday night games against Longford, but make it out for special occasions. We've banned anyone who ever acted up. Fortunately at the RSC you'd need to be an Olympic-standard tosser to reach the linesman with a bottle from the stands.
Surely that's the most outrageously controversial statement in the history of foot.ie :eek: Ban this guy and kick Sligo out of the FAI Cup.Quote:
