Shouting abuse at Alan Cawley, among other things.

In all fairness he's been giving enough warnings all season for repeatedly breaking ground regulations so I haven't any sympathy for the man

yeah yer right actually - it was a boycott after the whole end of year dinner fiasco wasnt it! at least he went out with honour

The rights and wrongs of the ban on Mattie is surely not a matter for Sean Connor or the team. It's totally out of their remit. It's up to the stewards and Ollie to deal with what only can be described as continuous drunken and abusive behaviour from mattie.

one thing for sure, he wasnt abusing Rovers players, like a lot of other so called supporters.

who was he abusing then??

**Da Real Rover** · 30/10/2006, 1:29 PM

d fukn cheek of those prawn sandwich brigade complaining bout matty, that man will b following rovers thick and thin, he is loyal and he is vocal. both attributes that so many of the sunshiners that packed out the new stand last sunday are lacking. he is a rovers legend and a true fan. so what if he is drunk, and with matty nothing is abbusive just a bit of banter. i love how our club seems to be capable of rounding on the true fans and chaseing them out so as to appease the prawn sandwichers for their annual visit. this is pure bollax.

He was only having the craic shouting at Alan Cawley,he was sitting behind his father in the stand. AFAIK he rang Alan after the game to explain.

I'm sure Alan knows Verdon from growing up and wont have taken it in a bad way. Did anyone make a complaint about him or did the stewards just take it upon themselves!

**DonalE** · 30/10/2006, 1:39 PM

I think it was just the stewards but i couldnt say for sure
