As for the match as you know I wasn't at it but a win is a win and we needed a win. Roll on Monday!
KOH
That 'his da washes elephants and his mothers a hoe' chant was sung a couple of times by a group of about five lads. thought i heard monkey chants but it was someone shouting useless at him, ndo ran over to the ref and said something to him. obviously he took it as a monkey chant, whether anything comes of that only time will tell. we were pretty poor on the pitch and lucky that sligo were reduced to 10 but ill take a win, 3 vital points. seems like an age since we last won a game. Roll on Monday
Why is it disgusting ? And why are Sligo fans trolling other web sites and posting what they find on here ?
The only thing better than beating Sligo, is getting on here and reading the predictable bitterness towards the Ref, MON and our support after .
Very very funny
Plus posting what was posted on the ultras forum :)
Fair play to the Sligo fans, youse are the only bunch of fools that could get fans from every other team in the league defending Rovers fans
Is there major resource issues with the guards or something??
It's a well known fact that 99.8% of football hooligans are ponces, the Rovers crowd are no different.
"Ooh look at mes, I is well hard swinging my arms around"
They don't want to know about actual real trouble because they are cowards.
Throw 8 or 10 guards into the mix and all the jumped up hoolies become good girls and boys.
Even that Dundalk thing earlier in year, look at it, the second there's a few guards involved no one does nothing only throw hilarious shapes.
It shows the level of your ignorance when you label black people "coloured". That word is now deemed to be almost as racist as calling some the n word. White is also a colour in case you haven't realised.

As for the alledged racism on Friday, I wasn't there so don't know what happened. Reports suggest a couple of ****s sang the elephant washing song (which is sung at adebayor by man u, spurs and chelsea fans accross the water) at Ndo and were promptly told to shut up. While I don't agree with singing that song I don't believe it to be racist in that it is not about the colour of his skin rather the place he is from. In the same way fans of country clubs are called sheep shaggers, fans of country clubs call Dublin clubs fans Dublin scum/knackers etc. Is calling someone from Africa an elephant washer any more racist than calling someone from Sligo a sheep shagger? As I already said it has nothing to do with the colour of skin rather it's a slight on where they are from. Sligo fans were calling O'Neill and Turner orange *******s on Friday - racist? Rovers have more ethnicities in our ranks than any other club in the country. Ask Mark Rutherford was he ever racially abused by Rovers fans, ask Don Cowan now, sure we loved Ndo when he was playing for us. The reason he gets stick from us now is he's a former player who left to join Bohs, nothing to do with his skin colour.
Did you read my whole post or just the last couple of lines? Specifically the bits in bold below

If it was a white african would the elephant washing/hooring still apply though??
It's pretty obviously a racist chant tbf.
When I said 'do you sing the song..', I meant you as in 'some Rovers fans', not you personally.
So a couple of ****s sang the song. You were not one of them obviously, but despite not being at the game, you still know that they were motivated by the fact that he now plays for Bohs, and the fact that the stick he got took the form of a song about elephant washing was 'nothing to do with his skin colour'?
Just to clarify, it was more than a couple of people. No one was told to shut up singing it(only time your fans told your other fans to shut up was when some sang 'You're not fit to wear the shirt' towards the end of the 1st half, fickle really and right to be told shut up imo), it was sung on at least 3 seperate occasions during the match.
I dont really want to get into a slagging match, but i was at the match and I didnt hear anyone call O'Neill or Turner orange *******s. Buts thats not to say they werent called that , but how can you say that when you werent there.
Ye collected the 3 points on the night and if I were ye I'd be delighted too.
The main problem I have on the night is not with Shamrock rovers but with the officals.
Never have I come away from a game and felt as dejected as I did that night, unfortunately we are well used to getting beat but the manner in which it happened was hard to take i.e. officals had their own agenda
Sligo is not another country ( or continent), Sligonians are not an ethnic group....Stop embarrassing yourself.Quote:

We know that but let him think what he thinks. I can't wait for the semi final. No doubt there will be a Sligo fan on here telling us how some poor bloke in a wheelchair with a few weeks to live was singled out and attacked by Rovers fans, or some eight months pregnant woman was chased down the road and battered. Ps, chants of 'Junkies' will be heard in Tallaght tonight, but I'm pretty sure Pats fans won't be getting a taxi home to get on the internet as quickly as possible to complain.
Just let both sets of fans get tooled up on the pitch after the game and get it over with, one hugely entertaining blood-bath, then at least there will be something to bloody well talk about.
Such a pile of sh!te.
I love the Extratime.ie update from the 68th minute of the Monaghan v Devon game:
Monaghan United 2 - 0 Salthill Devon
68' - James Whelan has been fantastic for Salthill with a few good runs giving Mons players no chance and he was unlucky not to score after a run all the way up the pitch and past the mons defense. Monaghan have had plenty of chances, the best falling to Barry Clancy just in front of the goal but he didn't take advantage and hit the sh*t directly at the goalkeeper
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any more accusations of assault or battery, among other things, need to be backed up by evidence - be it a newspaper report, a photo, a video - whatever. Otherwise, it's libellous. That's not us being nasty because we want to close our eyes to this kind of stuff; that's just the law of the country.
Any more posts along that line and this thread will be locked. I'm already close enough to doing so cos of the amount of crap - almost entirely by Sligo fans - that's been posted already.
