that piece on section o is the greatest load of bull.. the ringleaders last season that tried to cause trouble at the athlone town game in flansiro last season have bein banned at town home matches since then and havent being seen since. bet you it was them that posted it on that forum... they certainly caused the decline in section o and to be honest what ever goodwill towards section o by the club is now gone..

just watched the clip on the net just now and its not good to have section o mentioned in the same breath as bsc and shamrock rovers ultras..

A whole series based on youtube clips, bebo pages, dogfight footage that didn't even happen in this country, pikeys fighting (shock horror) and grainy CCTV footage of kids doing donuts in cars.
A couple of transition year students could have done this handily enough.
It really needed Alan Partridge as narrator though.
I look forward to watching more quality programming from TV3 such as "Americas wildest obese sex-crazed pets" and "When buildings fall down".
What is the point of this channel?

Ye I saw that a while back and I left a comment telling them to take it down

. I hadent looked back since as I'm not into that sort of thing

but they mustn't have taken it down.

Oh well the programme was sh!t enough, don't think anyone will take much notice.

**WoodquayBoy** · 11/03/2009, 9:19 AM

Watched it last night. Good Lord God but is this what we are reduced to, making shiiite like this? I mean, even take the soccer thing out nof it, how much were trhese muppets paid to log on to Youtube and download a load of images. It involved zero research, zero originality and was just a shocking piece of television

Bloody hell, when TV3 discover that there are big grey animals on the rampage at LOI games they'll have a flipping field day.

SkyOne will have an exclusive ... When Elements Attack

Scary stuff that, I hadn't realised the LOI had descended to such levels of chaos in the terraces, really opened my eyes this program,

I mean my god the bohs skooligans vs the rovers mathletes, these lads meet up in dimly lit carparks after matches and have sudoku competitions and play scrabble

I think you'll find that's the dangerous Belfield Bowsies. A nasty lot we are. We organise by mobile phone; none of this bebo lark, which is why TV3 didn't find us in their investigation.

We're - Still At Large...

**pineapple stu** · 11/03/2009, 2:43 PM

Incidentally, does anyone want to give this a try? Complaint form on the BCC site, specific here to inaccurate information (you presumably have to be named for this - Section O, for example), but there's various options. Mayn't do anything, but sure no harm.

**Inside Man** · 11/03/2009, 7:58 PM

Just plain Comedy

**the-blue-harp** · 12/03/2009, 12:13 AM

there are some saddo's too. rovers and bohs young lads should get themselves a life maybe go get themselves a woman or something. watching too much football factories has all their thick wee heads deluded.

What about when they discover your monkey fights Aidan? I can see a series being made on that one!

That's different. It's a legitimate sport (which is an important part of our collective cultural identity) and nobody gets hurt except the monkeys and some innocent bystanders.
