It's hardly accepting the challenge though is it? If 2 sets of hooligans want to meet up and kick **** out of each other away from the ground it doesn't really bother me but thats not whats happening. Cowardly scum are targetting innocent fans on buses and attacking people on the streets when they out number them 15 to 1. Accepting the challenge would be fighting with other like minded people.
DFX: seem to remember a gang of lads being attacked by so called Rovers Fans getting off teh No 10 on the way back from Belfield a few years back. anyone else remember this. Rovers where at home in dalymount that night
Bohs fans are saying that these people are banned from Dalymount. Having hooligan fans flags flying at your games would suggest otherwise. I think thats the point being made.Quote:

The point is the kids and teens look who are involved in this **** look up to these ****s. They see the BSC flag in front of them on match night, they get a sense of pride and honour and feel part of this group. The fact is the club are now afraid to ask this lot to get of said flags.Quote:

The solution is for the Gardai to get off the donut munching asses and do something about it. Problem is they'd prefer to be in the ground away from any possible incidents as it makes their night easier.Quote:

which was done, which is being done and has been let go for so long that unfortunately this is the next step.Quote:

regarding the flags Swano, i understand the point of the question but i merely stated that its hardly at the core of the issue. As stated we have banned most trouble makers and members of BSC. Unfortunately not all. And i agree that allowing this flag at the games looks bad but really you cant deny that the club has acted in good faith to try to rid the ground of these c*nts on matchnight.
I don't think there's any point in the traditional "you're worse than us" type argument. This is a problem for both clubs and would best be tackled by both clubs together. I don't know what can be done about an incident like this but that doesn't mean both clubs should just give up. I've been on the recieving end of various different incidents like this and sadly for every one I post up a Rovers fan can post up an equivalent. So lets at least try not to get in to that argument as it will achieve nothing. I hate both sides scum.
That was a different night to the one Block G is talking about. And without getting into tit for tat bóllocks, there were Rovers hooligans in The Mill that night who rang the Bohs scum element and "called it on", some of whom are currently banned by Rovers.Quote:

Agree with everything there. As I've said before it's up to the Gardai to act. They were warned that it might happen last night after the incidents the previous weeks. They turned up at the wrong junction. It's either gross incompetence or else they didn't want to have to deal with it. I'd reckon it's the latter.Quote:

I'm just saying, it happened. Suggestions on the Pats forum at the time where that it was pre-arranged between the two sets of scumbags. It seems to be a growing trend, and it's kinda worrying.Quote:

I thought they were taking the p1ss but it was unnerving heading towards Tolka. I was at the Shamrock Rovers v Bohemian derby there a few weeks ago and Rovers fans were telling me to expect that the 16 could be attacked on the way home. This is developing into a serious problem (not to say yesterday's incident wasn't serious enough). It's hard to say what's to be done but it's a poor state of affairs. I hope everyone who was caught up in the incident is doing ok.
People caught engaged in hooligan activity are banned from Dalymount. Obviously the people hanging the two flags haven't been caught at anything. There are definitely far more casuals at away games than home games. As for what happens on Dorset St, its been said over and over again, we can't do anything about that.Quote:

The people they are attackin never made any challenge?
I think the point he was making was that "ordinary decent Rovers fans salt of the earth that they are" sing run away, taunting the BSC that they don't stand up and fight.Quote:
