Do any of you know how many penalties have been awarded to Bohs this season?

**MariborKev** · 04/07/2009, 12:27 PM

Saying this thread has gone off a tangent anyway.....

Me entering the ground last night with an absolutely massive bag(packed with scarves for Derry fans, but usually a candidate for a bag search for flares etc).

Stewart: "There is no way I'm f*cking checking that, away ye go"

-Joe McGlue, FAI head of Security about ten feet behind yer man, less than happy

Me: "Yes Joe, how's the form" and wandering on in.....

The "tribute" by the Dundalk cheerleaders to Michael Jackson at half time

. I thought last week was weird with a Glens fans taking off his artifical leg and waving it round his head during their chants, but I think last night topped.

I do sometime give credit when it's due and there's no harm in giving a compliment but your practically creaming over each other.

This forum attracts pages and pages of posts pontificating on, and often exaggerating, negative incidents involving alleged fans. Yet when well deserved plaudits are given to "rival" fans you get stimulated to use sexual innuendo in a risible effort to ridicule it. Sad

An awful lot anyway but Bray have also got a few. We've got five at home so far.

I wouldn't bet on it.

Dundalk's Michael Collins played last night, despite the fact that he was to serve a one game suspension. I'd expect the points to go to Derry.

Somebody asked whats happening to Mervue with heavy defeats recently.Just to point out they are a completely ameteur team,nobody is getting paid.The players do a days work then go training and playing matches.How much are Shel's players on?
Obviously with Kildare in that division they wont finish last but i still think they will finish comfortably mid table.

Michael Collins was not suspended and in fact only came within the FAI's jurisdiction this week.

Both Collins and Drogheda united's Gavin Whelan were hit with an automatic one match ban after been sent off during the cup friendly between dundalk and drogheda prior to the start of the season. Both were to serve it in the next match that they were to play in. Whelan served his. Collins was due to serve his this week and didn't. Will be an interesting situation for the FAI to deal with.

Collins was not registered with the FAI when this happened so they can't take any action.

So the other 500 or so non naive(sic) travelling fans are legitimate targets?

I know its not the point but even if Collins sholdnt have played last night, we were that bad that Dundalk could have had Roddy Collins in midfield and still won
