where was the game played?? they play on one of the back pitches in beleek don't they?? no roping around them pitches

That mob are a disgrace. Have intimidated refs and away teams for years and nothing ever done about it. Once saw their fans take over both dugouts and make the visiting team stand near the endline. Anyone going to do something??? Dont hold your breath:ball:

I think all clubs and Refs have a part to play. Clubs don't have to accept that kind of "hospitality" and the league/refs have to start enforcing rules re the crowding of the dug outs and surrounding areas by subs and supporters. The problem is refs will often restrict a manager to the technical area when it suits eg: if they question a decision, yet at times will allow supporters to stand around dug outs and side lines. I was at a Mayo league match last week where club mentors/managers(although 100% well mannered) watched the match from either ,on the touchline, or 2-3 yards inside the pitch, with no reprimand from the ref(and that particular ref was no wall-flower!) Need a bit of uniformity about who is allowed inside the perimeter of the pitch and then clubs who breach or refuse to comply with those rules can be punished. Obviously this will not prevent thuggish threats from outside the pitch, they should be dealt with by the Home club or the league if reported and found to be true.

[FONT=Arial]I understand one of the previous views that there is an element of abuse or outbursts at all mayo league games but the level received at Ballina United is a disgrace. It would be a real shame if it was ignored by the Mayo league as I would not blame referees or other teams in the league if they refused to travel to games down there. The majority of the abuse comes from the sideline... The Mayo league should state new rules stating who is allowed in the technical area and get every club Chairman to sign off on it, if they have not already done this???. If clubs continuously refuse to comply then disciplinary action should be taken???[/FONT]

fully agree but it's still up to the refs to police it. they are the only club in the mayo league that do this. they played a cup game in claremorris last year and had about 50 people around the dugout and along the sideline(approx:5 yards on the pitch) the ref was to intimidated to move them. if this happens regularly than the league should take a stand and refuse them entry to the league in future years or at least dening them home advanage for future league and cup games

played them a few years ago in the divisional cup when we rejoined the league back in 2002 and i remember a 'fan' threatening one of our supporters with a golf club when we were winning!as far as i know that type of behaviour is commonplace there and won't change unless the mayo league do something about it.the club itself won't

i know that, but unless a report goes into the mayo league after every game nothing ever will be done.
most refs fear for their safety on that back pitch, nevermind players and supporters.

The ref on the day actually held his own quite well and didnt seem intimidated by them even with all they said to him. Ive heard other refs being in fear down there and I certainly wouldnt blame them.
I understand about sending in a report but there was nothing directed at our club but im sure Mr Conlon did send in his.
It seems already that lots of people have witnesses this "Mob" as hardcore so rightly puts it. Credit to posters for coming out and saying so too !

Doubt the Mayo league will do too much even with a report. Only answer is for every visiting team to video the game and the surrounds:ball:

Are you my arch nemisis Purplemonkey :mad::D

glenisland 3 claremorris b 3

Charlestown 3 Swinford B 1

Cross Celtic 0 Moy Villa 3, match played in Glencorrib.

Snugboro 0-1 Connrangers

Bad start for Cross. Looks like survival is the name of the game. Amazing what the loss of a few players can do. In this game we had most of the possession for the first half hour then Moy Villa took over and Cross did not have a response to their first goal.

Not too surprising results, charlestown the pace-setters, cross cant be too happy with thier results, but i suppose it is early in the season............

Not too happy at all. Only consolation is that the 3 teams that beat us are at the top of the league.
