    Fair play for what , all he's trying to do is avoid a sanction.
    Drogs scored a good goal not offside.,

    He's not doing it for the benefit of the fans, he's doing it to attempt to reduce any punishment coming his way.

    And whilst you obviously have your own opinions, if the manager, assistant manager, coach and chairman of my club dragged my clubs reputation through the dirt as happened last night (not to mention the numerous other occassions), I'm damn sure I'd want an apology and a promise it won't happen again.

    Its your club ffs and if you don't think it merits an apology you are effectively condoning his actions!

    PS I'm waiting for Ollie's statement, I'm sure its just taking a bit longer to draft....

    Nutsy lost the plot and did him and us no favours. Its always intresting and sometimes funny to see incidents happening but it wouldnt be repeated out in the open like that in any(other?) professional league around europe.

    Some credit for the apology but seems a bit half hearted.

    If a City staff member did something similar City fans would debate a statement better than that.

    Shels do seem to be a lot different that other clubs in that supporters don't seem to "own" the club name as at others... Criticise iseems to be shot down as opposed to discussed.

    I don't get why the Drogs are so upset about Jayo. Every player does that once in awhile.

    In many other leagues its viewed an incitement to violence and the police and/or football authorities would do something about it.

    And not "every player" does it.

    There was more than Fenlon involved. Where's the statement from the club chairman? What are Shelbourne FC going to do about it? Apologise and do nothing?
    Someone suggested a ban on Shelbourne using that stand and leaving all that area clear. The FAI should take charge of event management at Tolka as it is quite clear that Shelbourne can't manage it.

    Exactly,Shels have no fans and yet have won the league twice in a row,can you imagine what it would be like if we had fans.

    Well beyond the realm of my imagination I`m afraid. You're being silly now.

    Although I expect it would be something like the 11th unmentioned plague in the book of Exodus. You know:
    1. blood
    2. frogs
    3. gnats
    4. flies
    5. disease in cattle
    6. boils
    7. hail
    8. locusts
    9. darkness
    10. death of firstborn
    11. more Shels fans

    God help us all.

    yeah but the worst in the league for it is Drogs' O'Brien... In fairness to him though I don't think he's ever ran the whole length of the pitch to do it...

    I think we may finally have hit upon the reason why Shels are so poorly supported. Seems like most of their supposed fans have actually chosen to take the "lump it" root.....

    Sure we're all just consumers/turnstile fodder in the business of football anyway. So let's shut up, renew our season tickets, and go get ourselves a programme and burger before we get too carried away with ourselves....

    I always have to laugh at how foot.ie is seen as some highly defined sample by some people, who consider one or two peoples opinions to be representative of the opinions of “most fans” at that club.

    You'll find the majority of drogs dont care less about him or celebrating in front of us. I have no problem with him doing it whatsoever (or any other player that gets stick from us for that matter) - if ye cant take it, dont give it

    What about Dessie Baker's gesture towards yourselves in Utd Pk after the FAI Cup Semi last season??????Lots of Drogs went mental about that.I have seen several players give insulting gestures towards opposing fans so you just give it back twice as bad.
    I think the behaviour of Shels was terrible but emotions & tempers were running very high in a make or break game for Shels and without the benefit of seeing the incident again and the referee's actions your bound to go mental.I am not condoning this kind of behaviour but i kind of understand why certain individuals lost it.At the end of the day the FAI should hand out it's punishment and move on but it's just another chance for EL fans to dig at another club.
