    Would You Boycott Tolka???

    Seriously - if he gets another "slap on the wrist" and warning for this fiasco would you and your clubs fans be interested in just Boycotting games at Tolka Park???

    At this stage the FAI, the clubs, everyone is running scared from these bullies - only a points deduction or a boycott by their only source of income (away fans always out number the home support at shels games)

    I get the feeling people are not prepared to put up with these antics anymore - time to stand up and be counted cause the FAI/EL certainly cant control these clowns.

    enough is enough.......

    I agree with the motivation, but I don't agree with the tactic. I go to Tolka to support Bohs, not to admire Shels' dismal brand of football, and equally dismal standards of personal behaviour on the part of their current crop of officials.
    Any boycott would surely invite retaliation, and that's the last thing the EL needs.

    In the absence of any means of censure or any will to discipline these goons from the administrators maybe its the only tactic left?


    how many more incidents


    the suspicion is that basically Ollie and co are in cahoots with the lovely EL office - anytime they threaten him he hits them over the head with the rule book (which his da wrote according to Ollie) - does anyone feel it a tad odd that Ollie and his poodles can publish the official fai match report before the matter has been adjudicated on


    is the tail wagging the dog????

    The FAI are the only ones who can tackle Ollie. At this stage, their tolerance of his antics is beginning to look foolish at best.
    I hope that their silence on the specifics of the latest chapter means that they are being very careful before they throw that book at him.
    Eight points deducted would be good for starters.

    15 points deducted would be nice!

    I haven't bought anything (bar the match ticket) off Shels in years, and I doubt many Pats fans do. It may be time to step up from this token protest if no action is taken this time...

    Yeah pretty much every pats fan I know buys nothing but their ticket (and you’d be amazed how many students we have following us)

    I think its more that Ollie threatens legal action if anything comes up. The league/FAi always relent as they know the rulebook is a shambles

    I wouldn't boycott Tolka, but if action against Ollie is not taken then i think that every Eircom league club which has been on the recieving end of any of his "actions" (effectively all of them) should ban him from their grounds.

    I think Oily will get 1 month ban same as Seery, league will make empty threats that won't accept any similar incidents in future...

    Don't think i'm ready to boycott yet.

    League will need to resolve this matter quickly for once...

    I thnk it would be great if you boycotted Tolka,but if you did that would it stop you all coming on here and moaning,the amount of Shels related threads at the moment is stupid and nearly all are started by non-Shels fans

    Why not just put pressure on your own club to have him barred from your ground the next time you play Shels?

    Do Shels own their stadium either as a matter of interest?

    Loads and loads of Pats fan have boycotted the last couple of games we had in Tolka. About 4,000 of them I'd guess

    Who to believe the media or a convicted criminal? I agree its a tough choice
