I'm sorry. This is too much. Can we please end this hypocrisy?
Our stewards always act in a professional manner - unlike the fat git* from the other night. Even at the worst times under Roddy, he was never subjected to the intimidation that Farrelly faced the other night from Bohs fans and officials.
One of the lads in charge of our security is on this thread and himself and the others responsible for security at Rovers would make sure that scenes like the other night would never happen at Rovers. So yes, you should be taking lectures in gentlemanly conduct from Rovers.

*Internet etiquette prevents me from naming and shaming the culprit even though he's perfectly happy to take the kudos from his fellow neanderthals on gypoweb.

Exaggerated by you, it seems. No-one mentioned mobs outside his house. What they did mention was regular incidents of a few scumbags outside his house. While the dictionary definition doesn't give any indication as to how many people are in a mob (never mind more than one mob), it would be more than have been indicated in these incidents, which doesn't mean it's not scumbaggery.
UCD's manager record is fun. We've never sacked anyone because we couldn't afford to pay up Doolin's contract. Since joining the league in 1979, we've had...
Aug 1979 - May 1983 Doc O'Neill (manager since about 1970, I think) and Theo Dunne. The two kind of switched roles from what I can see depending on what else was on the Doc's plate.
Aug 1983 - Sep 1983 Dermot Keely (sold himself to Shamrock Rovers because we couldn't really afford him. He ended the season with a Cup runner's-up medal)
Sep 1983 - Nov 1999 Theo Dunne/Doc O'Neill. (Doc O'Neill died)
Dec 1999 - Oct 2001 Martin Moran (resigned due to work pressure)
Oct 2001 - Sep 2003 Paul Doolin (Drogheda took him from us)
Sep 2003 - present Pete Mahon

The suggestion that the most trouble was a few Bohs fans cordially asking "When are you going to win another game" is hilarious. Particularly when Bohs fans accuse Rovers fans of blindness and "Nothing happened" when there's trouble at Rovers games.
This has been done to death before anyway, so I don't intend dragging another thread down. Can we get back on topic?
WAR, I admit I shouldn't have reacted to Scully but the fact of the matter is I got a torrent of foul language and abuse merely for asking him to take a seat instead of celebrating wildly in front of the Bohs fans. It's hard to take an earful of obscenties without reacting at the best of times. I was accused first of pushing Scully then of punching him, neither of which I did. I did put a flat hand on his back to guide him away from the more populated areas of Bohs fans and towards block A where other Rovers officials were sitting. I apologised to the stadium director and Bohs PRO and offered to withdraw my services from BEST.
Glad I told Farrelly to get out of my club though and have no regrets. He's relied on protection from within the club he's shafted and hopefully it got the message through that there was no longer backing for him at any level.
Pity neither Scully or Farelly smacked you
True - I'd have both the ****s up in court.
Dont know whether to laugh or cry at this thread. First we have boez fans saying that the dont accept failure and are a big club.![]()
Lets examine this: BOEZ ARE NOT A BIG CLUB. The fact that you had to have a flag made up is beyond pathetic. Dont flatter yourselves. You've previously lost to heavyweights such as St Francis and Kildare County in the Cup. The pic in the sun today of some kids with a Farrelly Out bedsheet says it all.
Philo you are some prize tulip to admit that you abused the legend Farrelly. Are you a steward or a fan with a bib? As hoops1 says you're there to keep order not to point your finger in his face whinging.
Knowing the amateur hour goings on at "your" club you'll probably get promoted to head steward.

Will Bohs delusions of grandeur ever be cured? I doubt it when seemingly sane adults seem to think that Bohs genuinely are a big club. You've been minnows for the vast, vast majority of your existence and a couple of years of success have gone to your heads. Reality bites and all that. Get used to it.

Yeah whatever you say. I said we are a Big Club. Not were. At least we don't harp on about trophy's we won in the distant past.
