Presumably for the same reasons the rest of us are expected to fulfill games in a stadium that has seen rascist chanting, bottles thrown, pitch invasions, away players confronted on the pitch, attacks on the LUAS or are you suggesting SDCC Stadium should not be allowed host games either ?

Well if Derry won't take responsibility and the PSNI won't take responsibility, who will and why should the games be played there if nobody does?

Have the incidents been reported to Derry City FC or the PSNI?

Edit: And if so, what has been the response?

Should Shamrock be held accountable for the attack by ten of their supporters on one teenage Rovers supporter on Church hill road a few weeks back? Or is that Sligo Rovers problem?

Anyone here old enough to remember the boot boys era?

Was too young but the first cousin has told me some 'interesting' stories.

Would it make a difference if they have?

How can Rovers not expect this type of reaction when their board do nothing to stop it?? They don't bother banning people, more interested in their €€€€€

YOu could then have legitimate complaints and a right to an answer, rather than just moaning on the internet

For whatever it's worth, the security alert close to the Brandywell that was mentioned earlier in the thread(it was the Courthouse in town if anyone knows the place) turned out to be a stolen car with 50kg of home made explosives. A nearby care home had to be evacuated. It's things like this in this day and age that makes me feel ashamed to be a Derry man. Part of me thinks things will just get worse but that's a story for another day. Anyways, back on topic debating if Rovers are scum/ how much security a football club should provide to visiting fans. . .

Heres a tip for the Derry fans.
Just deny it ever happened, demand some sort of video or photographic evidence, if that evidence is provided and indeed does show a bus getting bricked then claim the evidence has been doctored.
Then go onto your own forum and start crying about how your fans ar being victimised and how opposition fans either fabricate all storys or just exagerate minor incidents.
Then organise a very bad boycott of foot.ie.
Tried and tested.

we shouldnt really be debating incidents that happen outside the ground. Or if we do, then we shouldnt be attempting to apportion blame on a club. If we want to blame certain fans it shouldnt be unless there is actual evidence (real or doctored) of fans being involved (eg Bohs fans in Derry).

The incidents we should debate are the ones (which are seldom in most cases) that occur inside the grounds. What happens outside the ground for the most part is public disorder that is the responsibility of the police force to police.

Agree, and unfortunately the situation with the cops in Derry makes it a kind of unique situation. However considering the lack of interest from people on here and elsewhere I assume the same lack of interest will be shown should any minor incident occur away from the stadium in Tallaght this season, instead of mass hysteria.

Would you rather just continue a bitchfest on t'internet?

Tell me what happened and where it happened, and I will personally make sure that Derry City FC are informed.

Have you got details of what buses were damaged and where they were hired from?

there havent been too many incidents in tallaght though has there, hoopy? Not having a go but most of the stupid incidents mentioned here have happened in the stadium? The only thing i can think of is when the cops waded into the Bohs fans on the Luas for no apparent reason... im struggling to think of another major incident which occured outside the ground that was mentioned here...

Put May 7th down in your diary and check this mb for the awful tales of woe from the previous night's away fans.
