Seemed like a harsh yellow for Twigg, he didn't go off the pitch, just celebrated near where he scored. Congrats to Bohs fans who set the Tallaght Stadium record at a fantastic 12 bottles thrown at the one incident. Fun game that![]()

hopefully the bohs lads on here will be on soon to condemn the actions of their fans today. as a previous poster says, it was 12 bottles they threw at twigg today.
i think we all know what would be the reaction on here if the roles were reversed.
It was Madden-esque. I wonder will Fenlon trot out Madden again in the final meeting between the two teams, he's been woeful every time he's played us for two years.
Ended up in the middle of the Rover fans today some of the soundest fans ive ever talked to. Great lads that really love the club with great passion created brilliant atmosphere and even let me have a head off the ball. Well done lads hope ye win the league.
They are people who get wound up by a mascot, never mind Twigg. They also lost their bottle - many bottles, but they hit the target as accurately as their players.Originally Posted by Jicked

Here's another us against the world post from mise. Can you imagine the mock outrage and calls for points deductions and matches to be played behind closed doors if Rovers fans threw 12 bottles at a player? But as it's someone else's fans that did it it's no big deal is it lads?
Somebody at one of the other boards reckons Clough was over to watch Madden, Powell and Chambers. Must have left fairly disappointed then!

In Bohs' defence, their profligacy was only mirrored by their team. 15 shots off a big sitting target at close range?![]()

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.
I think the point he was making was that plenty of Bohs/Sligo fans suggested such action could/should be taken against Shamrock Rovers, but don't seem to be discussing similar being appropriate for a quite amazing amount of bottles thrown at Twigg. I haven't seen any Rovers fans making a big deal of it, apart from it being pretty funny. Leave the histrionics to those with a better view of these incidents in Canada, Norway, Tubercurry etc.
I can't remember seeing so many bottles thrown in one incident at a game before in the LoI. Twigg didn't either go right over to the Bohs fans, just slid inside the box at the side where he scored. One naughty boy on the left clearly trying to get up close and personal with Twigg. Between that and throwing a punch at him last time in Tallaght I'm getting the impression they don't like him very much.

He was rightly booked though. He knew what he was doing, and he does it everytime. He scored against Pats last year at the same end and ran around the net to run celebrate in front of us. (ie he didn't have the excuse he was going that way anyway) Of course it winds people up (I remember Tony Bird used to do it to Rovers fans everytime he scored too - and Rovers fans rightfully moaning about it too) but its part & parcel of the game
Absoutely no excuse for anyone throwing bottles though. Bohs can count themselves lucky nothing hit him
