Make light of it anyway WAR ...... Afterall some would see that comment as having given insight into your attitude on the whole topic.
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
1. No rule was ever made about Bohs only playing Rovers in dalymount
2. the saturday thing was purely a one off, over reaction to the April 16th game [pigs head/mini riot/blah blah blah].
3. The crowd on the saturday was **** poor. Easily the worst attended Bohs v Rovers game of the season.
4. It doesnt matter what time the game is played at, trouble will follow it. It needs proactive policing from FAI/Gardai. That'll never happen.
5. It never gets to court because very few people are arrested, and those who are arrested are let go with a clip round their ear.
it does go to court. unfortunately its innocent people, ie bystanders , that end up getting arrested on stupid charges of "loitering" and "threatening and abusive behavior" because the gards are complete filth. they just want to see headlines like, "Riot at football game, 10 arrested" -not mentioning the fact that the people who get arrested actually had nothing to do with the riot.
this thread is hysterical. the trouble only lasts a couple of minutes and no is ever seriously hurt,and if someone IS hurt then its going to be one of the hooligans anyway.if you arrange a fight you cant complain if you do get hurt.
it could be completely prevented if the cops used any cop on, they DO have a responsibility to ensure that trouble is prevented.you cant say that its not the gards fault,as the troublemakers shouldnt be fighting in the first place, that logic could be used for every other crime like robbery,assault ,murder theft ets.fighting at matches happens whether you like it or not.,but its easily preventable,yet the gards consistently fail to do so
the idea of walking into a crowd and pointing troublemakers out to gards will see you beaten to a pulp,dont be so stupid as to even consider it
the idea of playing the game behind closed doors is ridiculous,ban 5000 people from watching a game, because of the actions of a few dozen?get real
Well Roma are going to play behind closed doors tomorrow night, thats banning at least 50,000 because of the actions of 1 person....
It seems UEFA did get real.............
Without any doubt the most naive post put on the internet ever. There was absolutely no trouble in or near the ground. APPARENTLY there was trouble on Clonliffe Road so what do you suggest? This fixture will always attract troublemakers and there is NOTHING anybody can do to stop it.
FAO of all you posters here who detest Rovers let me tell you about the real scum club. On friday our goalkeeping coach had a heart attack which I witnessed. Personally didnt feel game meant anything after that but what do a section of their support sing "You've one gone to hospital"!
Second incident happened in Drogheda after the scum beat them. Twenty of their "fans" abused our ex keeper Tony O'Dowd over the death of his brother which happened Cup Final day 1997..........
Also pitch invasion by some spas when they scored friday but no action will be taken........
KOH
An apparent contradiction
They weren't singing about Pat Dunne, they were singing about the Hoop who was knocked out on the Clonliffe Road.
Not saying it's much better....
1. When Pat Dunne was taken to the ambulance, the WHOLE ground stood and applauded, Bohs and Rovers. You forgot to mention that. Look at the Bohs MB for a thread by John Byrne titled RESPECT.
2. Were you in Drogheda? I wasnt but was told by someone who was there that it was no more than a handful of fu*king knobs. 20 sounds more sensationalist than a few, but it was WRONG, plain and simple.
3. As for the pitch invasion .... Are you suggesting that Rovers fans have never invaded the pitch when Rovers have scored against Bohs? It was a Rovers home game, therefore Rovers are responsible for security arrangements.
Which is it then?
Revenge for 2002
I'd love to know why you grace this thread with such an award of great magnitude WeAreRovers? Is it because no matter what happens Rovers fans never accept any of the blame? Is it because the rest of the league should sit back and let Bohs and Rovers shame them without a word of dissent?
A significant minority of Rovers' usual crowd are hooligans. If the club and the rest of the Rovers fans were serious about this problem, surely they could do something to stop it. They don't. Why not?
Judging by some of the answers here, there is alot of work to do (and all to be undone by these fools again. One step forward and forty two back)
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
I know plenty of Rovers fans who've tried to do something but have been ignored by Maguire and Duncan et al. At one of the Shels - Rovers games last season there were loads of people videoing and taking photos. Did they see the muppet who threw the can of coke onto the pitch, then threw a full bottle of coke and at the end of the game ran onto the pitch to confront the ref. No because he's been seen at games since. Rovers are going to be the Millwall of the EL and it's not something I'm looking forward to.
because of Rovers History
At least we have one. BYE BYE..........because of Rovers History
KOH
We have a history, might be short, but we have a history. Rovers & all clubs had to start somewhere too. Can you only play in the league if you've been around for more than 50 years. Has Rovers not been sold to different people over the years.
patsh, Roma are playing behind closed doors becasue of an incident inside the stadium, the trouble at Rovers v gypos was half a mile away from the ground.so youve no grounds for a closed doors game there
ffs.youve completely missed the point, and taken two separate situations/examples and drawn a link between the two in order to jump to an incorrect conclusion
hooligans fighting hooligans = hooligans hurt.
different story different day different game different situation entirely= idiot walks into crowd of people and rats to the gards alleging that someone is a hooligan.serious think hel get away with it.be feckjng realistic
Any more PMs for me you coward? Thought this retard was banned
KOH
ringo, if ,as chf claim theyve nothing to do with homefarm, then by rights you shouldnt be any higher than the premier division of the LEINSTER FOOTBALL LEAGUE now. because when you start a team you traditionally (wtf would chf know about tradition anyway) start in the lowest league in your local region, not get elevated to the second highest league in the country.
or if the claim is true (and it is!) that chf are an offshoot of homefarm/fingal then your club is a commercial franchise,nothing more.and franchises are a poxy stain on football.it might work in american throwball or baseball, but not by any stretch of anyones imagination could chf be accepted as a memeber of the true footballing fraternity
Oh dear, he's back.
More incoherent rants on their way as well as childish threatening PMs.
