Just for anyone who missed MNS last night, Sava's brainfart is about 30 seconds in here and well worth watching -
Question is - red or yellow card?
Come on now, the LOI is tiny. If dundalk were to contact those in attendance, they'd get their details from the club or the supporters club. I know this hasn't happened. Now if they, independently, found out who was in attendance, and got their contact details without going through any of the Pats representatives, then that raises another couple of issuesQuote:

Can you not await the outcome of the investigation before criticising Dundalk FC? You are giving the clear impression of pursuing an agenda irrespective of the facts that have yet to be established.Quote:

I know for a fact that the club wouldnt know half the people that were there
I'd consider it a very unlikely scenario that Dundalk independently tracked down only non-regular travelling Pats fans to question about an incident involving a very active Pats fan who was presumably in the company of mainly other very active travelling Pats fans.Quote:

I merely stated that their investigation hasn't gone so far as to ask any Pats fans what happened. Maybe the FAI investigtion superceded the Dundalk one and they, essentially, stopped doing thier own investigation (I presume they asked their safety people and stewards for their side almost immediately). To be honest I think that's most likely.Quote:

What I was replying to on here though were these posts
So your saying Dundalk asked Pats for names and contact details for supporters who travelled and Pats said "we don't know any of them". Not the supporters club members, not the season ticket holders, not the people who had contacted the club to give their own evidence/story about the incident.Quote:

Sounds logical
As above, I think Dundalk's investigation proabably stopped when the FAI got involved. I think some of the cheerleading here from Dundalk fans is hilarious though
What was yourman doing when he fell down the stairs? Was it after a goal or something?
I'm not sure that has been established. I've heard he was standing on a seat and I've also heard that he tripped over a dividing railing. I've also heard that he was drunk but I can't confirm any of this as I wasn't in the stand after the game. So conflicting reports.Quote:

It was an unfortunate accident and lessons should be learnt, no point continuing to take each others heads off.
The problems were LONG before the gate was opened, and tbh, that issue is the smallest of all them.
He was waiting to leave the ground at full time. Again, the issue isn't that he fell (that happens). It's the (lack of) response from stewards and others that's in question.Quote:

As for the poor responce after it happened, well that's not on. All clubs should take note of this and train stewards how to act when such indidents happen. The level of training for stewards is very poor all around the league. ( yes I know they are volunteers etc)
Such as?Quote:

However, the attempt by some Pats fans and gutter bloggers to smear the club and suggest sinister behaviour on behalf of stewards without any evidence is contemptible and opportunistic.
Listen I've been over this a million times. You can easily find out. jinxy's right, let's leave it until a report is pblished/announcedQuote:

Your tweet on the night certainly does not tie with your comment here.... "that he fell (that happens)". The goal posts have been moved then, it is no longer that stewards 'got their way' and that their actions lead to a fans injury it is now that they lack response after the accident. All seems too hazy and kneejerkish.Quote:

Logic would suggest that Dundalk had an internal investigation and forwarded findings to the FAI who were conducting an investigation accross all parties involved.
I hope Hanno is getting on well with his recovery!!
double post
The one i heard is that he fell over laughing when 'We are the Champions' was played!Quote:
