    Bohs have a hooligan problem. And this goes to prove it. End of.

    Cheech, from posts here and newspaper stories over the past year or two i can deduce that

    Bohs have a hooligan problem
    Rovers have a hooligan problem
    Pats have a hooligan problem
    Drogs have a hooligan problem
    Cork have a hooligan problem
    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?
    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    Ridiculous.

    Travelling to a foreign country for a pre-arranged mill takes it up a few notches. Trying to compare to isolated incidents at other clubs is exactly the kind of thing that my posts above refer to.

    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.

    Id also like to point out the final paragraph of the BBC report (ive pasted it below for ease of reference) and also reiterate that the 6 fans arrested were refused tickets by the club.

    "A spokesman for the Football Association of Ireland confirmed that its chief security officer was in Rhyl for the game and said none of the Bohemians' 520 supporters were involved in any incidents. "

    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"

    In other newws, genuinely feel for Bohs fans who booked trips to Riga.

    We've done all of that.

    Do you honestly think that Bohs as a club and the majority of Bohs fans are sneaking regarders in this respect? I'd be interested in your suggestions as to how BFC are supposed to stop youngsters -claiming to be Bohs fans - on Dorset St. stoning buses from Tolka on a night when we're playing in Galway, or how we're supposed to stop lads without tickets from taking the ferry to Holyhead.

    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 )

    I vote for nuking the city centre from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

    Excellent post. When all else fails, get your mickey out and wave it around.....

    We managed 3 rounds without an arrest two years ago, with a total away support of over 7,000 fans.

    Just a question.............I was seriously thinking of going to see Bohs in Rhyl even though im not a Bohs fan but would like to get behind Eircom League teams abroad, and I lived in wales etc, but in the end i had other commitments so had to cancel. 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 no

    I wouldnt comment on something you dont know about 2 out of 3 of our group were wearing jerseys and walked 15 minutes through the town centre to our hotel from the train station at about 1pm, and all other fans on the same train did too, and not a word was said to us, apart from a couple of friendly comments from locals...
