Definitely nothing to do with Derry. I've only seen one Twitter comment (which someone posted on the Pats forum). The club statement makes it seem like there was more. Vile remark made wishing death on Brendan Clarke. Some stupid 16/17 year old seemingly. Fair enough, everyone is sick, but that's totally uncalled for. Gives a very bad impression of Pats fans when the Media report something like this. Seems to be an isolated incident from what I can see though.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
I heard some Pats fans went to the 51 bar in Haddington Road before the game hoping it would be an omen, they could try it again next year at Bar 52.

Will the clubs be fined for the flares? if it's a fine per flare Pats are screwed.
For once maybe someone will call me "sir" without adding "you're making a scene."

A lot of flares were let off alright. I saw some guards move in on the Derry crowd behind the small stand goal, was there any arrests ?
I think 8 Derry fans were threw out including a man who made a comment to a guard about the heavy handed reaction compared to the south stand.
Two were kicked out for arguing over a seat(I'm told that was the reason for their disagreement anyway).
