But the "tape"in place in Tallaght is adequete.At bohs games it becomes a bit more advanced after it was breached in the first derby game in Tallaght.The security didnt work that day was reviewed and improved.
Why does the "fault" of any incident have to fall on one party only?
Granted something has to spark an incident but plans are in place should this spark occur and for me these plans are wholey inadequete and in typical Irish fashion are only ever improved when an incident happens-
Seat belts on school buses only bacame law when 5 young girls were killed in a Navan bus crash a few years ago-This pattern also follows into LOI security arrangements with the improved gate in Dundalk after events earlier this season,the fence at the OB end of Tallaght stadium after the one man attack on Rogers.Ive atteneded LOi games for over 20 years and have witnesses all of the reactionary changes slowly but surely being implemented always after issues and never before.
Fenced in is a bit harsh as I cant remember a pitch invasion for many a year before tuesday so IMO fences would be OTT unless a habit of such actions becomes apparant.
Proper segregation is a must and IIRC is a directive of licenscing.Surley prevention is better than intervention,I mean could you ever invisage Rovers and Dundalk mixing in the shed?.................No,me either.

So the stewarding is either to good or to bad and that's why Rovers fans cause trouble??
Here on a technicality.
Prevention is better than cure. If the stewards had done their job and stopped the little scrotes from getting onto the pitch in the first place there wouldn't have been any incidents. That doesn't excuse what they did when they got onto the pitch and the club should be trying to identify them and stop them coming to matches in future but the fact remains - stop them getting on the pitch and you stop any potential trouble.
Blame on two parties here - firstly the idiots who tried and suceeded in getting onto the pitch and secondly the Guards and stewards for not having a Plan A of preventing a pitch invasion and not having a Plan B of diffusing a pitch invasion when it happened into becoming an angry confrontation between rival fans. Amateur hour organisation that would be laughed at on the continent. I dread to think what would happen if two rival temas get to the Europa cup final.
Go to any non-Dublin Rovers away game except Dundalk and maybe Derry and you'll soon prefer the away games just as much as Tallaght now.
The Model Club
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.
Not leaving much options there are ya?
it means passinginterest was safe to go to Galway or Drogheda this season
For anyone keeping score, the above means 24 of Hibs4Ever's last 30 posts in the LoI section have been slagging off Shamrock Rovers. Of the other 6, four were score/attendance updates.
Keep up the great contribution pal!
Credit to Shams fans for giving everyone so much to talk about off the field.
The club does what it can, inquiries are set up, people are identified and punished, but we're not the police, and there's a limit to what the club can do. Incidents tend to happen at certain grounds for reasons I've already highlighted. Never ever in Tallaght. About Dundalk, there is never any trouble when we're home to Dundalk, only at away games. Tallaght is a state-of-the-art stadium, Oriel is a hostile environment, an inadequate stadium with poor facilities, and the slightest thing can spark an incident. Not just when we're around.
As regards the email, I wonder what kind of answer they expected. And what the response would have been to that answer. Much ado about nothing methinks. After the O'Connell Street riots, thanks to media lies, I was approached by a supplier in work afterwards, about whether I was involved. All I could do was laugh at his stupidity/ignorance, who put 2+2 together and got 22.
Security is improved after some incidents, but the response to the drunkard in Tallaght this year was one of the most OTT I've ever seen. 7 months later, it's sadly still there, even though the threat posed by it not there is non-existent.

Will you gayy wayyyyyyy ourra that!!
'No one likes us we dont care'
Here on a technicality.
In your two years in Tallaght, you have had a bottle hit a linesman and a fan confront a player during the match. Neither has happened at any other ground these last two years. Never EVER in Tallaght.....?
"If you don't work harder I'll pull you off at halftime,"
“Crikey, at Manchester City all we get is an orange and a cup of tea,"
The fan issue was highlighted. Keep up at the back.
The single bottle accident is not crowd trouble.

Surreal, just surreal.
Probably as accidental as the monkey chants
if you all feel that strongly about Rovers fans then do something about it.
For away games to tallaght , just dont go. believe me the presence of away fans in tallaght, bar the junkies is completly negligible anyway.
and for your home games, get on to your teams head of finances and insist Rovers fans should be banned from the games. and then wait for them to laugh in your faces.
if all else fails youse could shut the fook up.
Shamrock Rovers- Where trophies are won and envy is scarce
Placid me hole!
We survived 4 years ago when you brought 1 or 2 hundred to the showgies and we can survive without you in the future.
I could be wrong but I seem to remember a club official coming out stating that if your lot replicated the scenes there a season ago he would have no problem banning your travelling support.
The sheer arrogance that Shams seem to think clubs very survival hangs on their presence.
