1. Despite my repeated mentions of it, they have to a man failed to even reply to my comments on the Racial abuse of Darren Mansaram.
I can only take your word that this happened... i was in the middle of the Rovers crowd and have to say i didn't hear any that, if what you say is true then of course all right minded Rovers fans condemn it 100%... as I say I din't hear this and please don't retort that I've selective hearing....
In relation to some of the other comments made here by both sides. My own view is that it's sad that a few idiots from both sides often manage to take away from the genuine enjoyment of what for all of us is probably our most eagerly awaited game of the season... what gets me here is the amount of " oh yes you did, oh no we didn't " style comments that are engaged in on this thread. For the record most Rovers fans couldn't care two hoots as to what is or isn't the roots of Bohs and Rovers fans do not turn a blind eye to hooligans, our board does not contain known friends etc of hooligans... and the bottom line is that 99% of fans on both sides just want to go to the game , hopefully see their side win and slag off their friends etc who support the other side....
Instead we have to enjure mindless morons who shout out during minutes silence or idiots who want to attack Rovers fans/ the gardai and vice versa on occasion.... the worst thing is that for fans who have young kids you can't bring them to such games... I know some would say it would of been safe to bring a kid to Fridays game, well IMO it not possible because were they to see the fighting between the Bohs fans and the Gardai they would of been genuinely scared and I for one won't put my kids through that and thus they have to miss out going to the most "exciting" game of the season...so shame on the morons from both sides for doing that....
Really bugs me the way you come on with an all high and mighty post about the real Bohs and scumrock fans and then you blame us (bit in bold)!
The only fighting I could see was the scumrocks trying to break through police and stewards, and when they couldn't they threw bottles.
Tolka now has CCTV, you'll easily be able to pick out your lot who were causing trouble. Will you?
I doubt it.
One of them is very easily identified, the small stocky lad with the black scumrocks top.

I also used the phrase "vice versa on occasion" in relation to Rovers fans and fighting.
Your fans were wrong to fight with the gardai, our idiot/s who shouted during the minutes silence and threw the bottle on the pitch were also wrong.... bottom line because such morons exist I can't take my younger kids to Rovers/Bohs games... what's high and might about that ?????
Serious question: Do you think the bottle throwers and people who tried to break the Garda lines will be banned?
Serious question? Why are you the only boez fan making false accusations about racial abuse?
You cant deny there were a number of arrests in the ballybough.
One idiot shouted out during the minutes silence from our end. Scum. A coke bottle was thrown at Heary. Disgrace.
Seats broken in the ballybough.
KOH
I'm not, two others mentioned it on this thread too, though one heard it from the same source as me, but at least it shows I'm not "making it up". I'll admit my phrasing of the subject at the beginning was wrong and maybe added to the confronntation but the reaction I have got from several of you and particularly you NY and FH singling me out has been over the top.
I know Rovers fans in general are against racism, but I also know all sorts of toe rags on both sides turn up for this game and few others to cause a bit of trouble. If a small number of them were making these noises do you think the whole stand is going to hear them. I just reported what I was told and I see know reason why he would make this up.
Why would I bother lying about it:confused: As I said it's inexcusable no matter who it came from but it came from a kid(17 or 18) standing in a big group of other kids.
This thread is going nowhere and it seems clear that BP is determined to have the last word on the issues so it's just going to keep going with accusation followed by counter accusation and bore the ****e out of everyone else on here.
I went way over the top here, I should have waited for evidence to be produced an I apologise for the way I apperoached this issue. I would like my posts on this thread and the other thread on the matter to be deleted by the mods. I should not have posted hearsay on here. Once again. I assumed wrongly that Rovers fans would be able to back up what I was saying. I in no way wanted to accuse Rovers fans in general or the club of anything. Apologies.
Rovers were the better team in my view on Friday night. Best moment of the night was the guy in the pink shirt getting verbal abused. Bohs centre backs were a shambles and worst performance of teh season in my view. Great save from Murphy in the second half. Fergal Harkin was top class when he came on and should have started before Kingsbury if fit.
Any mods on here? Please delete my comments. and my account if you feel it necessary.
Crack open the champagne
Love the way everyone is able to slate someone for passing on info that he heard.
BP has taking back all comments on the matter and apologised, if Seaniesarmy actually read the thread he will see that BP was passing on info so why ask stupid questions like wheres the tape?
why is this in the EL general forum?
Excellent entertainment on a dreary slow Monday at work lads. Please don't delete anything mods:)
