Presumably for the same reasons the rest of us are expected to fulfill games in a stadium that has seen rascist chanting, bottles thrown, pitch invasions, away players confronted on the pitch, attacks on the LUAS or are you suggesting SDCC Stadium should not be allowed host games either ?

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.
Please dont turn this into a Shams v Bohs pi*sing match
Should Shamrock be held accountable for the attack by ten of their supporters on one teenage Rovers supporter on Church hill road a few weeks back? Or is that Sligo Rovers problem?
Misfits
Anyone here old enough to remember the boot boys era?

How can Rovers not expect this type of reaction when their board do nothing to stop it?? They don't bother banning people, more interested in their €€€€€

For whatever it's worth, the security alert close to the Brandywell that was mentioned earlier in the thread(it was the Courthouse in town if anyone knows the place) turned out to be a stolen car with 50kg of home made explosives. A nearby care home had to be evacuated. It's things like this in this day and age that makes me feel ashamed to be a Derry man. Part of me thinks things will just get worse but that's a story for another day. Anyways, back on topic debating if Rovers are scum/ how much security a football club should provide to visiting fans. . .
Heres a tip for the Derry fans.
Just deny it ever happened, demand some sort of video or photographic evidence, if that evidence is provided and indeed does show a bus getting bricked then claim the evidence has been doctored.
Then go onto your own forum and start crying about how your fans ar being victimised and how opposition fans either fabricate all storys or just exagerate minor incidents.
Then organise a very bad boycott of foot.ie.
Tried and tested.
we shouldnt really be debating incidents that happen outside the ground. Or if we do, then we shouldnt be attempting to apportion blame on a club. If we want to blame certain fans it shouldnt be unless there is actual evidence (real or doctored) of fans being involved (eg Bohs fans in Derry).
The incidents we should debate are the ones (which are seldom in most cases) that occur inside the grounds. What happens outside the ground for the most part is public disorder that is the responsibility of the police force to police.
I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.
Agree, and unfortunately the situation with the cops in Derry makes it a kind of unique situation. However considering the lack of interest from people on here and elsewhere I assume the same lack of interest will be shown should any minor incident occur away from the stadium in Tallaght this season, instead of mass hysteria.
False hope is worse than no hope. Ask Sligo.
there havent been too many incidents in tallaght though has there, hoopy? Not having a go but most of the stupid incidents mentioned here have happened in the stadium? The only thing i can think of is when the cops waded into the Bohs fans on the Luas for no apparent reason... im struggling to think of another major incident which occured outside the ground that was mentioned here...
