I'd expect you to condemn it. It makes the league look poor. Have you ever seen a big club do anything like this? This has come out of your website on a good few occasions now and none of you seem to care about it. You're a small enough club to be able to articulate your views on this to the club and try to stop it. It's embarrassing and petulant.

we arent, but its innapropriate for the OFFICIAL site to carry such garbage. and ditto bozos hooligan shrine.

its rocky's petty ramblings and reinforces the small time mentality of your club.

Small-time

That's rich coming from a fan of the smallest club in the league.

Sorry lads, I was only messing, I knew someone would fall for it.

on a broader note, as far as I can see, all of the EL clubs are small, some are just a smaller than others. The fact that 2000 is considered to be a big crowd just goes to show how small the league is.

Some dubious decisions made in Dalymount on Friday night alright but Dublin City offered nothing in attack and were never in the game. There is no question about the red cards. Only casual finishing from Roy and Fenn prevented us from winning 0-6
Keely has a lot more to worry about than the officials in the league.

**NY Hoop** · 06/06/2006, 11:47 AM

CHF has to be the only official website where the chairman can go on a rant as he has done in the past. Best laugh is any CHF fan slagging off any other club or fan

I was late so didn't see the first 2 goals however most people said that they couldn't see 1st one crossing the line.

Both red cards looked stupid but justified.

Georges showboating lasted all of 5 seconds. I thought it was a bit childish but he was trying to entertain the away support.

BTW thanks to the security fella who let me in free at halftime - DC not gonna make much cash leaving people in free.

Keely should be a lot more concerned at less than 200 home support & inability of his team to string together 3 passes all game.

**Maynard** · 06/06/2006, 1:31 PM

Just a quick word on a couple of things. Firstly ANYONE (and I mean ANYone) who thinks that Ronan Seery sits down and writes match reports for the DCFC website is just a fool. I mean seriously...

And secondly as far as feeling a need to round on the nature of the article, hold our hands up and beg for forgiveness on behalf of a website we have nothing to do with.

I may agree or disagree with what is contained in any given article posted on the website of the football club I support, but I certainly will not feel obliged to apologise/condemn or make any other such remarks about a piece of writing that has nothing to do with me.

If I am commisoned and paid to do a job of writing match reports for Dublin City FC then and only then, will I feel responsible to make some public mutterings on the issue.

Over and out.

This week it's me, but the common denominator is the match official and the game is suffering greatly as a result and it's time that people in authority stand up and do something about it."

Home Farm should be on their knees, thanking the Lord above every week, that they are just able to play in the PD at all this season.

"They are only part of the game and while big strides have been made...."

What strides would those be that Home Farm have achieved?

Keely was talking about the standard of refereeing. And btw, achieving promotion would be considered making strides.

Why? If Rovers were any good, they had two games to beat them. Dublin got promoted fair and square, rovers fans should get over it and concentrate on trying to catch limerick

when have we ever said we deserved it on the pitch? and if you were as reckless with your cash it would have been you

the issue is a club who never applied to join the league, crippled with debt, with no stadium and no plans to build or share one lecturing anyone on their affairs.

the fact the article is 100% correct is an irrelevance

You must have asked the magic eight ball for this one.

PROOF please!

I'n not one to go around laying into you lot, but none of that is in any real doubt.

You took Home Farm's place in the league, so there was no vote to elect you to the league. Your financial status seems to be common knowledge - perhaps someone else here can actually produce the accounts. You don't have a stadium of your own, nor the money to build one, and renting isn't sharing.

I think the burden of proof is on you here.
