I can only go on what I see. Glentoran fans can turn up for a game, realize they arent at an old firm game, and win lose or draw, leave the ground and behave them selves and make their way home peacefully.
Linfield, can not.

Also judging by the songs your fans sing, they are simply Rangers fans looking for something to do to pass the time, you I could probably throw in what happened in Manchester last year as well.
Behave yourselves and support your own team, take a leaf out of Glentoran's book.

I'm not outting a dirty spin on anything I think the security arrangements are over the top myself but well they aren't really anything to do with Cliftonville, the point I was making is that Linfield fans are getting screwed over by the powers that be on that one in the same way that Glens fans have been screwed over by the setanta cup organisers and I think a lot less of them will go to the final because of this! All in all though it could be worse maybe they could be made to play all their home games against Linfield at windsor for years![]()
So, you've taken a panoramic shot of your support in Boras yet use one of our support taken from mid-section and showing the support down to the end of that section?
Don't be going to court with that as Exhibit A, panstick.
PS: "putting my tits away" might have been a problem if I was in Zagreb, ain't that so![]()

i can understand why yee would like a nuetral venue but there will be a bigger crowd at a final in cork than there would be at a final in dublin and gate receipts are split 40% each and 20% to the settanta cup committee.
also dublin is closer to belfast than cork.
we have travelled the most in this competition by a lot.
turners cross is also a better ground than any in dublin at this stage too.

Well the measures imposed on Cliftonville were a major hinderence on them in terms of any competition they were involved in as it meant they would never have home advantage if they drew Linfield. Also at least you get a new stand to sit in with seats and a roof unlike Reds fans at windsor who for most of the time they went to windsor for 'home' games had to stand on the kop and bear the elements. Also I don't ever recall the Blues fans having a grenade thrown in at them while at Solitude!
I can list a few just off the top of my head,
Tommy McDonald getting hit in the head by your support.
Again at the Oval our players having to run in at Half and Full-time through a shower of coins/bottles etc from your main stand
A referee needing a police escort from the Oval because your support.
Trouble down at Loughgall a few years back
The year fireworks where legalised and the Glentoran supporters thought it would be a good idea to fire rockets into the Kop Stand whilst dropping a firework on Paul Leemans/Stuart elliot (can’t remember which one) mrs.
Down and Omagh when your supporters tried to attack Roy McCreadie, spitting and trying to tear down the fense.
Should I go on?
