I'm not one to stick up for Ollie, and while I believe that he shouldn't have gotten involved with the photographer, I think that this is one instance where an incident involving Ollie has been blown way out of proportion.
I don't think Ollie was completely innocent, but I think the charge and the fine were OTT, and IMO Collins' version of events doesn't hold up at all. Read the referree's report the A Face put up
Cork City: Making 'Dream Team' seem realistic since 2007.

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.
A face..surely you can see from those pics Ollie is only trying to tickle the guy
Jebus ... i dunno about that, if you look closely and factor in the shadow cast from the floodlights and the flash from the cameras, it looks more like a nipple cripple or a chinese burn, but thats just the way it looks to me, i mean, i'm no expert !!Originally Posted by RedX

Indeed if you think the one on the top left is him viciously punching someone in the face you're wide of the mark. Look at his face, there's no aggression there. He's grabbing the camera, there's no assault, you can tell on that picture by his facial expression. Who punches someone looking like that?
does he have the right to impose his phyiscal contact on the camera man at all ?
I wll be interested in you answer to this?
No, but as ever the ott reactions on foot.ie are good for a laugh if nothing else.
Thats it in a nutshell. I can't have been more than 5 yards away from the incident and it has been blown completely out of the water by people who weren't even there.
The sports team from my area is superior to the sports team from your area.
Ok so lets say that due to Shels bias the general reaction of hanging him is OTT but you guys also agree that Ollie should never have physically touched the camera man.
Here lies the problem for shels, as the head of Shels he needs to act in a proper manner and defo cannot act outside of the law (which manhandling the cameraman is). Ollie needs to learn some shelf control or else he will be putting Shels up for a knocking like this again and again.
Given his position no matter how trival or minor the incident it will always attract attention and lets face it Shels can do without this as you are in business to play footie not defend Ollies antics.
^ Totally agree with this too. ^

Is he lining up for the old flower trick i wonder ?? Y'know .... squirt him just as he is not expecting it ??

He's stopping him taking pictures. It's wrong, but it's not the world war three you seem so desperate for it to be.
I agree with seandrogs last post too btw.
old flower trick != world war three

You'd be close enough if you were Bin Laden and did it to George Bush now in fairness.
we are all desperate for the secretary of one of the countries bigger clubs to be slapping an official for another club? why would we want that?
say what you like, its still legally a textbook case of assault
Why do you all call him the "head of Shels"???????
Finbarr Flood is our chairman.
Plus learn to spell O-L-L-I-E!
Maybe because ollie acts like he owns the club and behaves like a bully ,he should be banned from other grounds.Fukin ******.
I LOVE the way how eveyone in the league hates Ollie, it's fcúking hillarious.
Nutsy said this about Dolan a couple of seasons back;
"He is just a sad man perplexed by Shelbourne".
Could be said about you lot for not shuting up how much yous hate Ollie.
I don't like Ollie but there is no point in going on about him forever!!
Who Cares?!
Most people would be hard pressed to name the Secretary of most clubs as they don't hog the limelight unnecessarily. Ollie is hated as he always courts public attention when its the manager & players who should be in the media spotlight.
Nobody is "perplexed" by shels. Dont flatter yourselves. It doesnt really matter that oily is secretary of shels. It's the fact that he is a convicted criminal who makes the league a laughing stock year in year out and nobody at tolka seems to mind. FCUK HIM OUT.I LOVE the way how eveyone in the league hates Ollie, it's fcúking hillarious.
