Crazy game in Lissywollen!
Without a doubt Mons started the hostility with a barrage of bad fouls but
we didnt do much to stop it. After twice catching Keady in the mouth with
a punch and kick, and then taking the legs of Russo twice in a minute or so,
Scully then launched a headbutt at our Assistant Manger. He then hit the deck
himself trying to pretend that he was on the receiving end of a head
in the face ... but stupidly he tried to convince the ref that it was our
manager that hit him! He was sent off. Graham Doyle then ran across to
the Athlone technical area and looked like he was making a swing at
someone and so he was sent off too.
Noel McGee then recieved and gave a punch or two from someone, as did Colm Jinks
and Aaron Mooney. Dowdy then won a mad peno when after slipping in the box himself
and loosing the ball, a Mons player ran back over and dragged him up when he was on
the ground. I think he thought Dave was diving but he just slipped.
Still cant believe Rossi hit the bar from it!
Lot of niggly fouls from both sides up to the final whistle.
Credit to MagicMe though for keeping calm ... the Press Box was the only
part of the ground that didnt look like WW III was about to break out

Some of what you said above I agree with and other bits I dont! Graham didnt look like he would punch anyone, he mouths off but has never been violent. He was trying to get through to check on Scully but was being blocked and was not swinging for anyone.Crazy game in Lissywollen!

Anyways was too shocked and disgusted by the scenes to react Ash. Otherwise, my handbag (and it was a big one) would have been used!!
Clinical stuff from Pats where other sides this season have been wasteful at Tolka, but maybe 1-3 flattered them as Rovers tired. Shocking crowd.

Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.

Oh, apologies so, when I looked up he had his arms out and was roaring so I thought ghe was looking to lamp someone.
I was chatting him briefly after the game and he did seem upset at the way the enrite incident unfolded. Apart from that
though it was a disgrace from both sides the way things continued.
Either way MM I do feel that Scully should shoulder a lot of blame in starting the whole series of events as he was a
disgrace on the pitch but I also agree that our players let themselves and the Club down somewhat by decending to his level.
We had a lot of famalies invited to the game as part of a welcome for a new school opening in the area so the whole event
wont have impressed them which is terrible for us as as you know we badly need people through the gates.
But hey, thats the most excitement there has been at an Athlone Monaghan match in years!

The standard of officiating in the league is so poor it is beyond belief.
