I'm just surprised is all. If someone throws stones they could probably throw them farther and harder if the stand up. I'm not saying you're wrong but it sounds a bit odd. Also, by stand I presume you mean the shed behind the goal. That's where most fans congregate. So throwing stones from there would have been kind of stupid too since chances are you'd hit other Limerick fans - especially if you're sitting down - because I have never seen everyone in the shed sitting at the same time.
Also, if something like this happened (and I would condemn it unreservedly) why wasn't it raised immediately after the game instead of waiting for a Dundalk fan to prompt it. Maybe it happened but are you sure it wasn't all a bad dream?![]()

Who did you report it to out of curiosity? Actually never mind, while the whole notion of stone throwing disgusts me in general this time I'll respectfully suggest that you don't bother coming back if you're that unhappy with your treatment.
And all this coming from a fan of a club who tried to throw out some of their own fans for chanting that an opposition player was a w@nker for diving, makes meanyway.

First of all it happened as i was walking by the "local youths"...it also happened to 4 other fans.The incident was reported to a large bald man and a gent claiming to be head of "security".
Who tried to throw someone out for abusing a player?That didnt happen at GUFC anyway.I was there when a board member complained about the language-that's all that happened.
Unfortunately i will be abck in Rathbane in 2 weeks and am expecting the usual crap but UTD will win so that will do for me.
Usual comfortable win for the "franchise"against the pub team.

I was there-i know what happened.No public complaint just one board of Director giving out about the language.He left the abuse continued.Read what was said again-posters are giving out that we were told to stop shouting.....we were upset at how the board member treated us-the fans.
