Shels have a hooligan problem
Dundalk have a hooligan problem
whats your point.? Especially when Bohemians have acknowledged the problem and outlined what they are doing to eradicate it.
Whether you like it or not the league is in the **** together. Why do you, Dodge and others use this stuff as some sort of game of oneupmanship?
Ridiculous.Quote:

I shall look forward with relish to reading the newspaper reports of Derry City hoolies disgracing their club in European Competition this season
ah wait...
Hey hold on a minute, surely hooliganism is hooliganism regardless of the country it is committed in, regardless of the amount taking part, regardless of the number of arrests?? You cant make up the rules as you go to suit your own argument. Any problem is a problem.Quote:

I don't. I try and rubbish posts that attempt to make an anti Bohs fans thing into something more sinister, say, for example, like it being "anti Irish rascist"Quote:

Public Hangings?Quote:

As these things go, the cops get to blacken Bohs fans' names with risibly OTT preparations, then loftily absolve them when the dreaded riot doesn't materialise.
Police praise fans
Served its purpose though: they get to justify their existence, and Dodge and all the other hooligan story vultures can lap it up. The loser, of course, is football.
Wouldnt agree with that at all, from that list all have had problems with young lads acting the ****** or schooligans. Rovers and Bohs are the only ones with adult hooligans. I know we have a lot of idiots following our club but i couldnt imagine them organising a fight in a foreign country. (just waiting for a wise crack about the only way we'd be in a foreign country is on holidays :))Quote:

Would i have been prevented from getting off the train and wandering into Rhyl town centre?
If you were wearing colours then yes you would have been, if you weren't then I'd assume noQuote:
